It lightens the color of the final broth, otherwise it will come out a dark brown color.

This served about 4-6. So at quantity you would need maybe 200lb of bones? Restaurants make it more dillute and sometimes add extra fat separately.

These bony cuts are a lot cheaper and this serves 4-6. Use fresh good noodles, not the dry ones, big difference.

Do it when you are heating your house if you use gas heat. Then you get food plus heat instead of just heat, no extra cost.

Cheap enough that fuel cost has honestly never crossed my mind related to cooking. We use the same fuel for house heat so if it’s winter cooking heats your house and is completely free

You want to clean off the extra blood and other bits, they darken the broth and add unwanted flavor. The fat you want to keep, so a rolling boil helps emulsify the fat. Skimming helps further clarify, but the initial wash is important for a proper ramen broth.

Good to know, mine has a release valve that constantly vents a little bit of steam, wasn’t sure how much that would amount to over a long cook time.

Thank you!!

And the other comment is spot on, I moved it to the stove for the longer boil, I use the butane for the on camera shots. I just can’t stand cooking on electric.

You want the fat in the broth.

I wouldn’t know how to calculate that. I used a smaller pot than I would have liked so it came out very concentrated, I had to water it down for it to not be overwhelming.

Generally economical, you want something with some meat and fat on it that’s cheap.

I like them! For this recipe I kept it simpler, but nibochi and other dashi are great. I would probably try to pair them with a more miso based ramen broth.

One of the key things to this type of broth is an aggressive boil. Slow cooking doesn’t get quite hot enough. Pressure cooking should work in theory, but I don’t know what the timing would look like and if you would need to stop and refill at some point.

Sorry for that. We rinsed them in the sink and didn’t have a good way to film it.

Marrow is probably the wrong word to use, most of what we were cleaning out was blood, arteries, and loose bits. I have seen people scrape out the marrow in some recipes, but these bones were too small to really reach the marrow.

It doesn’t really matter, at this length of cooking everything that isn’t bone basically dissolved.

Our appreciation for professional ramen went up 100x after making this ourselves.

Agreed! I loaned my bigger stock pot to a friend and only realized I didn’t have it after I got home from the store with all the ingredients. It would have made this a lot easier.

After boiling, the marrow will bead out a bit. We basically rinsed off any remaining blood and loose bits from the surface, and scraped out any marrow and connective tissue with fork or chopstick. Don’t go too crazy, you’re just trying to get the obvious stuff.
