Basic Ramen Broth 2 Recipes

I'm a great fan of Ramen and not just for a quick lunch either. I make it into soups, stews, casseroles and a dozen other groups of dishes. As a side dish to a stir fry it's hard to beat. The bad part of Ramen is the 'flavor pack'. They're 92% to 96% sodium, depending on the particular 'flavor'. Here is yet another alternative that's a lot lower in sodium and much better tasting. It's from 'The Book of Ramen' by Ron Konzak. (Does giving the author a plug make the recipe any less stolen?)

Ramen noodles are great! They taste good, are quick to fix, inexpensive, nutritious, filling, and go well with almost any other food. The only thing wrong with them is the 'flavor pack'. Each package of Ramen is two servings so each of the two servings contains 800 mg of sodium. That's 33% of what even optimists say is allowable. Enter one of my heros, Ron Konzak ('The Book of Ramen', where I shamelessy stole this recipe.) Give this broth mix a try, you'll never use another 'flavor pack'. If you're like Me you will feel a bit guilty about dumping the unused 'flavor packs' in the landfill but it's better than eating the stuff.
