Fire-Roasted Veggie Ramen

Elevate vegetarian comfort with a bowl that hinges on the deep, primitive flavors of fire. Cremini mushrooms and thick onion rings are seared to a deep char in cast iron, then served over noodles enriched with a signature "smoke butter" and vibrant smoked tomato oil, proving that meat-free can be just as bold and "smokehouse-forward" as any barbecue classic.

4 packs vegetable or soy flavored instant ramen
8 oz cremini mushrooms, halved
