    I make chicken katsu udon regularly as a part of my diet and I gotta say, that bit about everything being timed right is the most difficult part to get down.
    I always do my eggs first, the broth second, saute my mushrooms and slice my carrots and scallions. I get my finishing steps going by getting the seasoning and flour on my chicken and then get my udon going as I fry my chicken.
    Everything gets plated within a minute of getting the udon in the broth.
    I've been doing this for a couple of years now, so I have my methods down to an exact science. The timing makes for a delicious combination of flavors without compromising the chicken's crunchiness or making the udon too soggy.

    I have only ever tried to make ramen from scratch one time. It took nearly 3 days lol. Everyone thinks it is quick food because they are used to the ramen packs at the store, but real ramen is a multi-day excursion.

    My favorite tool for poking a hole in an egg is a corn cob holder. You know those little things with the two prongs? One prong is usually longer than the other. I press the tip against the egg, and then give it a little slap to pop in there.

    I make a yearly Tonkotsu ramen for friends and family around October - November. It's a big time and I take a couple days to do it all. I value it greatly as it's a time for me to show those close to me how much they mean to me with a hot meal made with love.
    The idea with the paper towel? Genius! I would've never thought of that, but I certainly will now, as well as the inclusion of an apple in the broth, and for my vego friends, I'll try the miso mix tare this year.
    Thank you for all the ideas and the wonderful looking ramen!

    Come on, Alvin, this is bush league! If Andrew said "the flavour's a little off" he would have remade it eight times, with every bowl going into the clean plate club! I need to watch you make at least a dozen more variations of this 12 hour process! 😂

    Great stuff, Alvin. With the manga coming to a close soon, and Season 4 officially on the way, I'd love to see a special on Golden Kamuy. There are plenty of dishes to choose from - though I suppose the ingredients might be a bit of a sticking point. I doubt that most Asian grocery stores sell squirrel brains...

    I think the trick is to boil the noodles a little towards "al dente", then put them in the bowl and then put on all the stuffs, and THEN you put on the almost boiling broth, or soup and after that the decorations :)

    • @Ra-Ram3n
      @Ra-Ram3n 2 роки тому

      Sounds clever, but the thing is not functioning that way :) You can try it yourself. Also this traditional way, how to asemble bowl of ramen is created with ramenshop serving in mind. At home you can do it how you want, because you are not timing lot of orders in short time.

    Extra tricks from a ramen enthusiast; if you want to poke holes in your eggs, use a pushpin! Sauteeing the aromatics helps boost their flavor, so do that with light oil before you add everything else!
