Shoyu Ramen

In a large, deep saucepan, heat sesame oil over low heat. Add garlic and ginger; cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add soup base and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add ramen noodles and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes; drain and set aside.

Stir soy sauce, sake, sea salt, mirin, and sugar into soup base mixture. Strain into 2 serving bowls; divide ramen evenly between bowls. Serve immediately with desired toppings.
