Braised Brisket
High Gluten noodles
ajitama
Cow Bones Chintan
negi oil
sake shio tare
So, this is an expermiental recipe, on it's first try.
for the noodles, in a kilogram of flour, I replaced 10% for semolin and 1,5% for gluten, I also lowered the SC to 1,2 . I think I had better mouthfeel results If I had used 10% of rice flour too. 38% hydration as it's the most I can make with this machine.
rested for 48 hrs before being cut into noodles. pressed into a ball and dusted with corn flower (polenta) then rested again for 48 hrs (all rest times done in airtight container at 5º Celcius.
the chintan was mostly cow femur bones cooked to death and back in a pressure cooker (2 hours under pressure). no aromatics.
they were left in cold water and boiled to remove scum, then cooked and the resulting broth was clarified using the defreezing method. used around 5kg bones for 6kg water.
for the topping I seared a good crust into the thin part of a brisket (tapa de asado here) and braised it for 1,5 hours in the pressure cooker. here I aded enough broth to partially cover the meat cut and then some negui whites and greens for an aromatic base. the resulting golden color broth was mixed with 2 liters of the clarified bone chintan, effectively making a 4:1 ratio (2l bone brooth, 500 ml brasing liquid). it aded a certain warmth and meaty flavour to the broth along a golden hue. I'm kind of pleased with it.
next time I will sear the individual cut to give it more omph.
for the negui topping I used the lower part of the onion, where the white and green meet.
ajitama and negi oil.

Need help - Tare
I have made plenty of shoyu tare. The problem is I am not sure the threshold for what peak umami should taste like. Moreover how salty tare should be. So is my method correct?
The ingredients I use follows as 550 ml light soy sauce, 90ml dark soy sauce, 110 ml sake, 110 ml mirin, 1 liter water, 45 grams niboshi, 50 grams katsuobushi, 15 grams kombu, 10 grams shiitake mushrooms, half bulb garlic, few slices of ginger, 12 grams salt, and 5 grams sugar.
Overnight on counter goes the Kombu, water, niboshi, shiitake, and katsuobushi.
The following day heat mirin and sake over med heat to remove alcohol. Add dashi ingredients. Heat contents to below a simmer just steaming.
Remove Kombu and shiitake . Stir in all the soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. Cook for 40 minutes at low heat under a simmer.
Remove from heat and allow to cool. Add salt, sugar, and 1/2 tbsp msg.
Any advice would really help. : )

Your are so Noodleful to me.. aka, the Ramen Noodle Song.
So, the other day, I was boiling water for my..you guessed it.. ramen noodles. I thought to myself, “you are so noodleful to me”, (my wife thinks I have lost my mind…maybe she’s right). Anyways, i tried creating this. I should have changed “eternally”, to “internally” . If i can just get one thumbs up, or at least tell what they think of it.

What's the best non-spicy instant ramen out there?
I love to eat ramen as a quick and easy lunch while at work. I've tried Sapporo Ichiban and loved it. What are some other great brands?

How to keep steam in chopstick hole bowls?
Normally you'd use like a plate or lid, and if using an instant with a bowl, the flap. Give time for noodles or add-ins, but maintain heat.
But like how do you do that with these kind of bowls?
The two ideas I had come up with were, silicone/rubber plugs or actually filling the holes with clay or another food safe material.
I've seen it mentioned that rice would be a better use for these bowls. It's not like I don't have other bowls to use for ramen. I was just genuinely curious if anyone else might have any other suggestions or advice.
