### **4. How to Make Traditional Tantan Ramen**

Now that you know the key ingredients, it’s time to dive into making your own Tantan ramen! Here is a step-by-step recipe that will help you recreate this iconic dish at home:

#### **Ingredients**
– 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth
– 2 tablespoons of red miso paste
– 1 tablespoon of sesame paste (or tahini)
– 1 tablespoon of chili oil (adjust based on spice tolerance)
– 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
– 1/2 lb ground pork (or chicken)
– 4 servings of ramen noodles
– 2 soft-boiled eggs (optional)
– 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
– 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
– 2 tablespoons crushed peanuts (optional)
– 1/4 cup cilantro (optional)

#### **Instructions**

1. **Prepare the Broth:**
In a large pot, combine the chicken or vegetable broth, red miso paste, sesame paste, soy sauce, and chili oil. Stir well to dissolve the miso and sesame paste completely. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Allow it to cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to meld the flavors together.

2. **Cook the Ground Pork:**
While the broth simmers, heat a small pan over medium heat and add the ground pork. Cook until browned, breaking it up into small crumbles as it cooks. Once browned, remove from heat and set aside.

3. **Cook the Noodles:**
In a separate pot, cook the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

4. **Assemble the Ramen:**
Divide the cooked noodles into four bowls. Pour the hot broth over the noodles, ensuring each bowl is filled with a generous amount of broth.
