10 oz. sliced mushrooms

1 Tbsp. minced fresh ginger
3-4 Tbsp. soy sauce
6 cups vegetable stock (I use homemade stock)

Heat the oil in a large stockpot and add mushrooms and white scallion parts. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until tender.
Add the garlic and ginger. Sauté for 1 minute until aromatic.
Add the soy sauce and vinegar. Stir and then add the veg stock and bring to a simmer. Stir in the mirin and spicy sesame oil. Taste for salt and adjust to your tastes.
Cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions (making sure not to use the seasoning packets). Stir for 3 minutes until the noodles are almost tender.
