- 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 tbsp. red miso paste
- 1 tbsp. peeled and thinly sliced ginger

- 1 cup thinly sliced zucchini
- 4 carrots, sliced thinly
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 Fresno chili, sliced
- 1 tbsp. sesame seeds

Instructions
- Begin by preparing the pork belly. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Remove the skin from the pork and dry it off with paper towels.
- Sprinkle it all over with the sugar, salt, and pepper. Put it in a ceramic casserole dish and bake for thirty minutes. Turn the heat down to 275 degrees and roast it for 40 more minutes. Remove it from the oven and let it cool off a little and then refrigerate it for at least a hour.
- Meanwhile, boil the ramen noodles according to the package directions and then drain them.
- Also, in a three- quart saucepan, bring one inch of water to a boil, and steam the carrots and zucchini for five minutes.
- Also, prepare the eggs: Place the eggs in a three quart saucepan and cover with water. Bring the pot to a boil, and then cover the pot and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the water for six minutes. Then, drain the eggs and peel them. Cut the eggs in half.
- Also, steam the corn. Place it on a plate, cover it with a paper towel, and microwave for six minutes. Remove the kernels from the cob.
- In a Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil and then add the red miso and ginger. Cook for one minute and then add the chicken stock.
- Bring it to a simmer and keep it warm until you're ready to plate the soup.
- In a cast iron skillet, heat another tablespoon of oil on high heat. Slice the pork into thin slices and cook it on both sides, until it start to get crispy.
- Divide the broth between 4 bowls. Add the noodles, pork belly, corn, zucchini, eggs, carrots, and peppers. Then, sprinkle on the sesame seeds, scallions, and sesame oil.
