recipesforweebs:Ah, Ramen. The instant stuff weeaboos and college kids eat almost 3 times a day. What a treasure. You know what I’m gonna teach you what to make? Ramen that isn’t instant, and doesn’t taste like you poured an entire fucking salt shaker into your fucking bowl. God damn…MSG, amirite?Anyway, this recipes like pretty fucking delish, so we’re gonna have a pretty rad time making it, okay?O FUCKING KAY.~Ponyo-style Ramen(servings: 1 bowl)adapted from: xIngredients for Home made noodles-¾ cups all purpose flour1 egg¾ tsp salt (plus more to taste)~1 Tbsp water (or more give or take)Ingredients for soup-2 cups pork or vegetable broth*1 Tbsp fresh miso paste1 tsp soy sauce (add more if you want it to be saltier)¼ tsp dashi granules¼ cup fresh bean sproutsIngredients for toppings-½ scallion stalk1 egg, hard boiled1 piece of thick cut ham sliced in half1 Tbsp olive oil~Procedure for noodles-Mix all of the dry ingredients together and make a small ‘well’ in the center of the mixture.Mix all of the wet ingredients together and pour the mixture into the center ‘well’ of the dry ingredients.Slowly combine the ingredients together until it becomes a hard dough.Knead that dough hardcore motherfucker. Knead it the same way you need every little bit of merch with your waifu’s face on it. Yeah I know i said ‘need’ instead of ‘knead’. Fight me. I dare you.Roll it into a ball and test the consistency. If it’s WAY too stick, add some flour, if it’s really hard and not sticky at all, add a TEENY bit of water. The dough should only be a tiny bit sticky, like not enough to stick anyway, u feel meOnce the doughs at the right consistency, wrap the dough ball in a dish towel and let that shit rest for like an hour. You rocked it’s work, tiger, and now it just needs to recharge a little. Am I implying you had sexual relations with a noodle? Yes. sort of. It’s been a long day.Take the dough ball once it’s rested and sprinkle flour over that shit. Make it rain, holla. place it on a flour’d counter and use a rolling pin to flatten it out. Like real talk. If the dough starts sticking during the rolling process, slap some more flour on that shit.Put the dough sheet on your cutting board and spread a bunch of flour over it. Real talk, get reaaaaaal liberal about your flour use here. You DO NOT want your noodles sticking together once we cut them.Fold the sheet two times in the same direction, spreading flour over the sheet each time you fold it.Once it’s folded, start cutting it into thin noodles. If you think it’s going to start stick, add some more flour onto that biz.Once you’re done cutting them and you have a huge ass pile of noodles, toy at them a little with your fingers to unfold and separate them a bit. Then toss that shit around with some more flour.Get some water bowling, enough to cover all the noodles, and just sort of sprinkle the noodles in. If you plop em all in they’ll stick and shit, so don’t do that. Cook for abot 4 minutes, tasting a noodle occasionally to see if they’re done. I like undercooking mine a tiny bit so they fully cook in the soup.Once they’re done cooking, strain them and place them in the bowl you’re gonna eat from. And bam. You finished the noodles. Are you proud of yourself? Do you want a hug? Fuck off, we’re not done yet ho we still got a WORLD of shit to finish before you can eat this mystical creation based off of Miyazaki’s food porn masterpiece.Procedure for Soup-In a medium sized pot, add the stock, dashi, and soy sauce. Bring it to a boil over high heat.Remove from heat and stir in the miso. If you want to add more miso or something, fuckin go for it, it’s your life.Add the bean sprouts in now so they warm up a little. Pour the soup into the bowl of noodles and stir it around so the bean sprouts and noodles are all intertwined.Oh hot damn. You finished dat soup. Wow. how cool are you? Not that cool yet, because you still need to do the last few toppings you lil shitbaby.Procedure for toppings-Pour enough water to cover an egg into a small pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, place the egg in gently and let it stay there for like 10 minutes.Once the egg’s cooked for about 10 minutes, take that shit out and place it in a small bowl of ice water so it can cool down.Once it’s cooled, remove the shell and cut it in half vertically. Place one of the halves on top of the ramen and eat the other one yourself with a sprinkle of salt because you deserve it. Love yourself a little.Get some thick cut ham slices, like the thickest you can find, get a piece and cut it in half. Drizzle a frying pan with olive oil and let it heat up before placing the ham slices on there. Cook until heated up but not browned and place atop the noodles.Thinly dice half the chive stock and place it atop the noodles as well.~HOLY SHIT YOU JUST MADE YOURSELF SOME MIYAZAKI NOODLESARE YOU PROUD? YOU SHOULD BE. YOU BASICALLY MADE ART.No seriously, put that shit in MOMA and it will probably sell a lot quicker than like, fuckin, idk, cubism or whatever. Because Ramen always tastes better than oil paint, trust me.Alright nerds, that’s Ponyo’s Ramen for you, enjoy eating literally 10 bowls of it while crying over fucking fish people you sad piece of trash.LOVE YOU, BYE -- source link
