Ingredients:
For the broth:
– 1 pound chicken (bones and thighs)
– 1-inch piece of ginger, sliced
– 4 garlic cloves, crushed
– 1 large onion, peeled and quartered
– 10 cups of water
– Soy sauce

For the noodles:
– 2 cups of all-purpose flour
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 teaspoon of salt

Directions:
1. In a large pot, add the chicken, ginger, garlic, onion, salt, and pepper. Pour the water into the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 2-3 hours.
2. Remove the chicken from the broth and set it aside to cool. Strain the broth into a large bowl and discard the solids. Skim any fat from the broth.
3. In a mixing bowl, add the flour and salt. Crack in the eggs and mix it with a fork. Add water gradually until the dough comes together into a ball.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface until it’s smooth. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and roll each one out to your desired thickness. Cut the noodles to your desired width.
5. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt. Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook for 1-2 minutes or until al dente.
6. Shred the chicken using a fork.
7. To assemble the ramen, divide the noodles evenly between 4 bowls. Pour the broth on top of the noodles and add the shredded chicken. Garnish with green onions, sliced mushrooms, boiled eggs, and soy sauce.
