I whipped this up for a weekend treat once and was blown away by how the fresh seafood mixed with classic ramen flavors so well. Now it’s my quick go-to when I want to wow without the hassle.

What You’ll Need

  • A live or fresh lobster around 1 to 2 pounds: loads of sweet, tender meat
  • Four cups of broth (chicken or seafood): the tasty base, homemade or good store-bought
  • Two packs of ramen noodles: classic chewiness, fresh if you can get it
  • Two tablespoons soy sauce: salty, savory punch, ideally naturally brewed
  • One tablespoon miso paste: adds depth and gentle tang, red or white works
  • One teaspoon sesame oil: a nutty aroma and flavor boost
  • One cup sliced mushrooms: earthy taste from shiitake or cremini
  • One cup fresh spinach: bright color and healthy boost, tender young leaves best
  • Two green onions: add crisp freshness when finely chopped
  • Two boiled eggs (one each): creamy richness, soft boiled with runny yolks to top it off
