Instructions

1.	To prepare the broth, in a pot, combine 3.5 cups of water, yellow miso paste, dashi granules, sliced jalapeño, and black bean chili sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer to enhance the flavors.
2.	Cook the ramen noodles in a large pot of boiling water until slightly past al dente, approximately 4 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
3.	In a cast iron skillet, brown the tofu pieces in a little canola oil until golden and crispy on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Set aside for assembling the ramen bowl.
4.	Prepare the vegetables by cooking shredded cabbage and soaked shiitake mushrooms in the skillet. Add soy sauce and cook until veggies develop a brownish hue. Finish with sesame oil for added flavor and softness.
5.	Assemble the ramen bowls by adding noodles, tofu, cooked vegetables, green onions, and nori strips.
6.	Poach eggs in simmering water with a splash of vinegar until formed and firm. Carefully transfer the eggs to the ramen bowls using a slotted spoon for a silky broth.
7.	Ladle the hot broth into each ramen bowl.
8.	Serve and enjoy your delicious and spicy miso ramen!
