So /ck/, how do I cook the perfect ramen?
cook 3 minutes, add packet
good soup stock
this is the hardest part, and chances are, if you have to ask, you have no idea how to do it
cook 3 minutes and 6.5 seconds, add 2/3 the seasoning packet, stir, add the remaining seasoning

This
I usually get a pig leg, a ham hock, a pork belly, and a couple of small chickens. Boil it for two or three days, making sure to keep adding water. It's hard to pay attention to some shit for that long but I'd you boil out your bones and burn them up you're fucked.
Usually I pick the bones out once the meat is falling off and boil them seperately. Once the bones fall apart, strain out the matter and add it back to your meaty parts.
Here is where you make the choice as to whether to remove the meat and fat matter or not. I leave it in, but a ramen shop would require clean broth, so they pull it out. Admittedly it can be kinda smelly.
You'll know it's good when it's white, creamy, and so fatty that it solidifies when it cools.
Now once your broth is ready, make your fixins. Soft boiling eggs is tricky but once you get em peeled and ready you marinate them in soy sauce and mirin, maybe with a bit of fish sauce and chili depending on how you want em.
I add pork, nori, green onion, soft boiled egg, wood ear mushrooms or oyster or shiitake or whatever you want...maybe diced white onion too. I like to top it with a few sprinkles of sesame oil and chili paste...Fuck I love ramen

Unless you're making it in bulk its not worth the time or money.

Come on, buddy. Sure, you can google it and get a few pages of articles on the subjects, but sometimes you just need the lived experience of somebody who's tried cooking it over and over. Seems to be what OP is after.

With your soups in general, a big difference between what you get at a nice Japanese place and in your house is going to be the way the stock is made. In restaurants, they can afford to boil bones and such into the stock for hours, whereas you might not have such time. Sucks, but you might as well know.
Beyond that, it largely depends on personal preference. I would season it with a basic sauce of soy sauce and brown sugar mixed/heated together and add cut-up daikon radish, cabbage, and celery.
For meat, I'd take advantage of the hot soup and add thinly sliced raw pork. Recipes recommend freezing the pork for 15 minutes prior to cutting so that you can get a really thin layer of it. The boiling soup will cook meat that is this small.
This is sort of a subjective thing, but the tips you get here should get you on the right path to making the ramen you like the most.
