Pumpkin Ramen in a bowl with veggies

Who doesn’t love a steaming bowl of ramen on a cold crisp Autumn day?  Miso roasted pumpkin ramen with  black rice has a creamy coconut and pumpkin broth.  White miso paste has been used in the broth and to roast the pumpkin because of it’s rich umami flavor that enhances the rich broth.

I took a few liberties and topped with ramen with roasted pumpkin, crisp veggies and a squeeze of fresh lime.

Not only is black rice ramen delicious, it is one of the most nutritious ancient grains, it has a nutty flavor and is gluten free.

To make Roasted Pumpkin Soup:

Preheat oven to 375F degrees.

  • You will need one sugar pumpkin, coconut oil, white miso, and coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  •  Place coconut oil, miso, and coconut sugar on a baking sheet.  Place baking sheet in preheated oven for 2-3 minutes or just until coconut oil melts.  Remove from oven and stir contents together.
  •  Seed and peel pumpkin.  Cut into 1-2 inch cubes.  Place on baking sheet and mix with coconut oil mixture until all of the pumpkin is coated.
  •  Place in preheated oven and roast until golden brown and when pumpkin becomes soft.  About 30 minutes or so.  Remove from oven and set aside.  Be sure to reserve 1 cup cooked pumpkin for top of ramen.

  • Pour broth ingredients and pumpkin into a blender or food processor.  Be very careful because the broth can be hot.
  • Blend all ingredients until smooth.  Add 1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, if you’d like additional heat.  I always like additional heat.
  • Return to pot and heat pumpkin broth until hot and steaming.

  • I like to add a cold crunch to ramen.  I recommend slices of Thai chili peppers, julienned carrots, sliced green onions, and purple cabbage.
  •  Quick pickle the cabbage by adding 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar to 1 1/2 cups purple cabbage.

Recipe Notes

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin may be used in place of roasted pumpkin.
  • regular ramen or rice ramen noodles may be used.
  • chicken stock may be used, but broth will not be vegetarian/vegan.
  • a soft boiled egg may be used, if not concerned about vegan.
  • Ramen can be topped with favorite toppings.  Sauteed Shiitake mushrooms are really good.  Create your own style and taste with your toppings.
