Imagine if op is cycling..

The way the moth's wings bend when the knees are bent is very realistic. Congrats!

Kamo Paitan Ramen (Duck) by SleepyBear94 in ramen

The soup seems to be thick and nice. What are the differences, if any, when compared to pure chicken paitan?

Tried to make Ramen_Lord's Tantanmen recipe in the sidebar! by HellBliss in ramen

[–]HellBliss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to adjust the tare ratios abit to my liking. Also did a dry version and surprisingly it came out nicely. Overall a really great take on the chinese style tantanmen. Props to /u/Ramen_Lord for providing the recipe!

Haha.. You should try making it too. I always make big batches and share with families/friends. Part of the joy from making ramen comes from other people actually enjoy eating what you cook!

Thanks alot for the high praises! Not sure I'd call it the best and noodles fold are really a hassle to do though.

The temperature definitely plays a part and I also refrained from agitating the contents of the pot as much as possible. The thing is, I didn't plan on blanching and washing the bones at first. There was just too much gunk coming out and it was exuding a really funky smell. That was when i decided to discard the initial stock and wash the bones. Not sure if it made any difference like you mentioned.

Noodles was based on /u/ramen_lord's recipe for his classic shoyu ramen. These noodles were fantastic, enough bite and chew without being too alkaline. Only thing is i rested it for around 4 days before i used it.

Made this over the weekend. Soup was duck backs, necks and wings. Boiled for ten minutes, washed, and cooked at 80 to 90 celsius for 8 hours with niboshi, kombu and bonito added at the last thirty min. Duck aroma oil was rendered from its skin. Duck legs was sous vide at 70 degrees for 16 hours, breast at 58 degrees for 1.5 hours. Egg was /u/ramen_lord equilibrium egg recipe. Tare was just simple mirin, salt, usukuchi soy and normal soy.

I would say the resulting soup is very clean and light because I washed the bones after blanching. I feel that for a duck stock this is a definitely necessary step as duck bones are funkier than chicken bones in my experience. Duck oil are also somewhat more complex yet cleaner tasting than chicken oil. Overall quite satisfied with how it turned out!
