Shoyu-Miso Tare (ramen bowl flavor base)

I'll try to remember to take my OWN photo, but so far all I've done is mix up the Shoyu-Miso Tare itself, which is a concentrated flavor base for ramen bowls. Just add hot broth, ramen noodles and whatever veg or proteins you fancy! (...all pre-cooked, of course!)

Shoyu-Miso Tare
¼ C tamari/soy sauce
2 T mirin
2 T sake
2 T white miso
1 tsp Sriracha, or a pinch of red pepper flakes

Whisk it all together and get ready throw together a ramen bowl!
To add extra flavor, add a couple spoonfulls of this on top of your ramen bowl:

Scallion-Ginger Sauce
4 thinly sliced scallions
1-2 T minced fresh ginger*
1 tsp tamari/soy sauce
pinch of red pepper flakes
¼ C sesame oil

In a small bowl, combine scallions, ginger, soy sauce and red pepper flakes.
Heat sesame oil in a small sauce pan until is shimmers (about 1 minute, just before smoking). Pour hot oil over scallion-ginger mixture and let steep at least 10 minutes before serving.

* I buy this in pre-prepared squeeze tubes at the grocery store.
