0.25 tsp

salt

2 cup liquid egg whites

1 tbsp rice vinegar

2 tbsp green onions (chopped, green parts only for garnish)

Instructions

1
Sauté the aromatics
- Heat the sesame oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
2
Simmer the broth and vegetables
- Pour in the water and bring it to a boil.
- Add the shredded cabbage, julienned carrots, and sliced red bell pepper to the pot.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still have a bit of crunch.
3
Cook the noodles
- Break the dried ramen noodle blocks in half and add them to the simmering broth.
- Stir gently to separate the noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are just tender. Do not overcook.
4
Add the egg whites and seasoning
- Reduce the heat to low. Slowly pour the liquid egg whites into the pot in a thin, steady stream while gently stirring the broth. This will create delicate egg ribbons.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes until the egg whites are fully cooked and opaque.
- Stir in the low-sodium soy sauce, salt, and rice vinegar.
5
Serve
- Ladle the noodle soup evenly into four bowls.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.
