"You wouldn't download a Ramen."

Heck yeah I would!

OP, I'm sure it's very yummy, it certainly looks that way. But are those ramen noodles or spaghetti noodles?

[–] Foam3477 2 points 1 year ago

Totally looks like spaghetti. Maybe udon?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Looks great, OP!

I hope you made enough bowls for all of us...

[–] teflocarbon 2 points 1 year ago

That looks absolutely perfect.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Those are indeed some tasty looking ramen

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks, they were indeed quite tasty!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looking really good. Any recipe you followed?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks, not this time, but I can share the rough process as well as the two recipes I initially started with.

I made a broth with dried shitake mushrooms and kombu, that I afterwards enhanced with carrot and onion, spring onion and some other aromatics. Then I fried some doubanjiang and garlic, added miso, mirin, sake and broth. I also created an aromatic oil by frying spring onions in grapeseed oil and I of course marinated some boiled eggs in mirin and soy sauce. (I might have added something else as well, but I am not sure)

I don't know why but those noodles look like spaghetti. Oddly thick for ramen noodles.

[–] morelikepinniped 1 points 1 year ago

Looks amazing! Well done, OP

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ramen perfection.

I can't tell for certain what OP is using, but you can get a more springy, ramen-like texture from regular spaghetti or angel hair pasta by cooking it with some baking soda added to the water (kansui or sodium carbonate would probably work as well if not better)

Not quite as good as the genuine article, but good enough for this lazy home cook at least.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks good! OP, what ingredients did you use? Especially what kind of noodles?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The noodles are just some store bought straight ramen. For the stock I used Kombu, Shitake, Onion, Spring Onion and Carrots. The soup contains doubanjiang, garlic, Miso, Sake, Mirin and the stock. The aromatic oil was made with grapeseed oil and spring onions. And the toppings are just corn and an egg that I marinated in mirin and soy sauce.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That sounds delicious (and ambitious). Thanks for the reply.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh damn. That's food porn right here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Looks very good! Has me craving ramen now. :D
