this is my take on Japanese Ramen. With a little Vietnamese influence. The key is layering the flavors in this broth. This is a quick version. Traditional style would require me to be in the kitchen all day.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add baking soda. Drop eggs in with a spoon. Quickly return to a boil. Boil 10 minutes for hard boiled, 6 minutes for soft boiled. Whatever you prefer. When done, immediately remove from heat and run under super cold water for 5 minutes. Let sit in cold water while cooking.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, start the broth. Place 3 qts water in a pot. Bring to a boil. Add nori sheets. Simmer for 10 minutes. Keep an eye on this. If nori starts to fall apart remove it. But still remove after 10 minutes max.

  3. 3

    Next add bouillon. Peel and cut onion in half. Add it. Simmer 10 minutes. What ever style of bouillon you use, use enough to make 12 cups broth. I use knorr brand. The cubes will make 2 cups.

  4. 4

    Peel the garlic and ginger. Cut ginger in 1/4 inch slices. Smash the garlic cloves and ginger slices. Add to broth. Simmer 10 minutes

  5. 5

    Add rest of broth ingredients. Simmer for ten more minutes.

  6. 6

    While you have been making the broth. Remove steak from refrigerator. Remove the bone and trim fat. Slice across the thin side of the steak, into 1/4 inch slices. Lay out on a cutting board, and lightly sprinkle with sea salt and white pepper. Let meat come to room temperature.

  7. 7

    Strain broth through a wire strainer. Place broth back on stove and continue to simmer.

  8. 8

    Place 2 qts water, 1 bouillon cube, and 1 tsp sesame oil in another pot. Bring to a boil. At the same time turn up the heat and bring broth to a rolling boil.

  9. 9

    Add noodles to water pot. Cook 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, and rinse in cold water.

  10. 10

    Put noodles in a bowl. Place raw beef on top. Slowly run boiling broth over meat while filling bowl. Add desired garnishes. Sprinkle black pepper over egg. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

cooking is a passion of mine. I started when I was very young and I had to drag a milk crate around to see over the counter. taught by a career cook (my grandmother ). I have always tried to push the boundaries of conventional cooking. I prefer cooking wild game. when I can get my hands on it, but fish is more readily available for me. I raise and butcher most of the livestock that I use for my conventional recipes. I hope everyone can find a few recipes they like in my list.
