Chashu White Miso Ramen @ Ramen & Tsukemen Tao

Zac — Sun, 09 Jul 2023 05:33:33 +0000

In the heart of Buena Park, CA, you’ll find a gem named Ramen & Tsukemen Tao, a specialist in Sapporo-style miso ramen and tsukemen. Ramen lovers exploring Buena Park must make a pit stop here. The shop serves bowls featuring two distinct types of miso: red and white, with the latter being the more mild. Sapporo-style ramen, known for its thick, rich broth crowned with a thin layer of oil and accompanied by thick noodles, is a highlight of their menu.

One standout bowl is the Chashu White Miso Ramen. Captured below, this offering includes their signature white miso broth, thick noodles, a soft-boiled egg, and is lavishly topped with extra-large, thick cuts of chashu pork. If your palate craves the unique flavors of miso, this is the ramen destination for you in Buena Park. However, be mindful of their popularity – it’s recommended to arrive before they open as the shop, though cozy in size, tends to fill up quickly.

Nandomo White Ramen, served at Nandomo in the Rodeo39 Public Market and a sister shop of Hironori: Pork bone broth accompanied by pork chashu with a hint of BBQ flavor that ramen hunters will savor, green onions, bean sprouts, seaweed, soft-boiled egg, and a drop of spicy paste.

Nandomo White Ramen. Pork bone broth with pork chashu, green onions, bean sprouts, seaweed, soft-boiled egg, and a drop of spicy paste.

I believe they are using similar noodles as their sister shop Hiro Nori. They are a little soft for my preference, but to each his own. The chashu was delicious. It may remind you of a traditional bbq pork flavor.

This bowl is a little richer when compared to the white ramen this shop serves up. That’s accomplished with the use of squid ink and black garlic oil.

Yokohama Tonkotsu Shoyu From Yamachan Ramen

Zac — Fri, 06 Jan 2023 03:51:42 +0000

Ramen kits from Yamachan Ramen are the ideal starting point if you’re seeking fast and convenient ramen prepared right in your own kitchen. Each kit includes the noodles and a broth starter pack.

Begin by boiling water to cook the provided noodles. In a separate pot, boil another batch of water to mix with the broth concentrate. Whisk the two together. Once your noodles are cooked, transfer them to the broth. While these kits don’t include toppings, you can prepare your own in advance if desired. It’s this simple to enjoy a bowl of noodles that’s a cut above the traditional instant ramen we’re familiar with in America, such as Cup Noodles or Top Ramen.

Squeeze this out of the package. Then add some boiling hot water.

After adding hot water to the concentrate, whisk well to make sure it’s throughly blended.

When your pot is at a raging boil, drop in one severing of noodles for 3 minutes. Less than that if you want your noodles harder.

Tokyo Shoyu From Yamachan Ramen

Zac — Wed, 04 Jan 2023 04:29:48 +0000

Yamachan Ramen kits unveil the refined essence of Tokyo Shoyu, a blend that carries a satisfyingly balanced soy sauce flavor. This kit empowers you to create authentic pork-based ramen in the sanctuary of your own kitchen. Within each package lies the heart of the dish: noodles and a deeply aromatic pork broth starter that reverberates with flavor.

To capture the essence of that perfect Yamachan Ramen experience:

Begin by boiling a pot of water for the noodles.
Concurrently, in a separate vessel, ready some water for the pork broth concentrate.
Combine this heated water with the Yamachan Ramen broth concentrate, letting the Tokyo Shoyu flavor bloom.
When the noodles have been tenderly cooked, immerse them in this flavorful broth.

For the traditional Tokyo Shoyu touch, top your creation with tender slices of homemade chashu and a whisper of seaweed. While the kit provides the backbone with its broth and noodles, remember it doesn’t supply the chashu or seaweed, so those are for you to source.

With a touch of prep and a flair for presentation, you’re diving into a bowl of ramen that elevates beyond the likes of instant contenders such as Cup Noodles or Top Ramen.

Garlic Truffle Tonkotsu @ Silverlake Ramen

Silverlake Ramen Manhattan Village Menu

Garlic Truffle Tonkotsu from Silverlake Ramen. Creamy pork and veg soup. Topped with thick cuts of pork chashu, kale (not pictured), truffle oil, garlic, mushrooms (not pictured), seaweed, and seasoned egg. They were out of mushrooms when we ordered and I think if you want to try this it def needs the mushrooms. Otherwise the truffle flavor falls flat. I think this needs to be paired with the mushrooms to make it a hit.
