Method
 

Make the soy-miso broth
  1. Bring the chicken broth to a simmer in a Dutch oven.
  2. Whisk in the white miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, and sesame oil until fully combined.
Cook the dumplings
  1. Add the frozen pork or chicken dumplings to the simmering broth and cook for 5-7 minutes until cooked through.
Wilt the vegetables
  1. Add the halved bok choy to the broth and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
Cook ramen noodles separately
  1. Cook the fresh ramen noodles separately according to the package instructions, then drain well.
Assemble the bowls
  1. Divide the drained noodles between 4 bowls and ladle the dumplings and soy-miso broth over top.
  2. Top each bowl with the halved soft-boiled eggs, corn kernels, sliced green onions, nori, sesame seeds, and chili oil.

Notes

For the cleanest broth, whisk miso paste thoroughly off the heat only if it looks clumpy; otherwise keep it at a gentle simmer so the miso doesn’t boil aggressively. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days, keeping broth, dumplings, and vegetables together; noodles are best stored separately if possible. Freeze dumplings in the broth only if you plan to reheat until hot again, but avoid freezing soft-boiled eggs. For a lighter swap, use reduced-sodium soy sauce and reduce added salt to taste.
