Ingredients for soy sauce ramen noodles recipe

• Ramen bricks – Any type of ramen noodles will work here. A few examples that I’ve used and enjoy, which are worth checking out are NongShim Shin Black Noodle Soup which you can get on Amazon reasonably priced, and Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup which you can also buy on Amazon in 10 different flavors. 
• Soy sauce – Used in many Asian recipes to add a salty and savory flavor. In this case, it is important to use soy sauce to make this sweet soy glaze.
• Maple syrup – Used to add sweetness to the sweet soy glaze but it can be substituted with agave nectar too.
• Lemon juice or rice vinegar – Added to add more of a complex flavor to the glaze.
• Sesame oil – Adds to the complexity of the sweet soy glaze, but you can use olive oil or walnut oil as a substitute. 
• Salt and pepper, to taste 
• Garnish- Use chopped fresh chives, dried chives, spring onions, and sesame seeds, for garnish, as desired

How to make saucy ramen noodles

Gather all the ingredients for the soy sauce ramen noodles recipe in one place.

Then cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. However, cook the ramen for 1 minute less than the package suggests. 

Be careful not to overcook the ramen noodles as they will become soggy and may fall apart.

In a bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients. Then pour the mixture into a skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook until gently thickened. 

Then just lift and place the ramen noodles into the sauce. If you do it like this, the noodles will have some water stick to them and the entire dish will be saucier.

Once the ramen noodles are added to the skillet of sauce, cook for only 30 seconds.

Serve this saucy vegan ramen noodles recipe warm, topped with sesame seeds, chives, or spring onion. 

Storing the saucy noodles

Store the noodles in an airtight container for 2 days. I would not recommend more as they will become too soggy.
