Ingredients

• 4 slices bacon, chopped
• 1 (1-inch) piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced

• 1 tablespoon minced lemongrass
• Red pepper flakes, to taste (about ½ teaspoon)
• 4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
• 1 tablespoon white miso paste (or more to taste)
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (or to taste – the miso already adds quite a bit of salt)
• ½ tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• ½ tablespoon rice wine vinegar
• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
• 2 cups ramen noodles (use fresh if you can – dried work in a pinch, just make sure to discard the included seasoning packet!)
• Toppings:

• Soft-boiled or poached eggs (1 egg per person)
• Chopped Spring Onions
• Sriracha hot sauce (optional)
