Instructions
- Prepare the broth: In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, stirring to combine and create a light, savory broth.

- For extra flavor, consider adding garlic or ginger to the broth while it boils.
- Use fresh ramen noodles if available for a more authentic texture.
