Recipe Summary Japanese Shoyu Ramen (Pressure Cooker)
This clear broth seasoned with soy sauce seems very simplistic, but it belies the intense umami flavor within the soup. We use chicken and 4 types of dried seafood to create an incredibly savory broth that is seasoned with a soy sauce tare that gives the broth a bit of sweetness and wonderful complexity. The best thing about this recipe is that we use a pressure cooker that not only helps extract all the flavor very quickly but also creates a beautifully clear broth.Ingredients | Brown Lentils Cooking Time Pressure Cooker1 (2 1/2 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces1 cup dried scallops1 cup dried anchovies¼ cup dried shrimp¼ cup bonito flakes1 (1 inch) piece ginger, thinly slices, divided1 (4 inch) piece dashi kombu (dried kelp)3 quarts water1 cup soy sauce½ cup mirin½ cup sake8 green onions½ cup bonito flakes¼ cup white sugar8 cloves garlic, crushed1 (4 inch) piece dashi kombu (dried kelp)6 (3 ounce) packages cooked ramen noodles, or to tasteDirectionsPlace chicken, scallops, anchovies, shrimp, bonito flakes, half the ginger, and kombu in an electric pressure cooker.
