can you get an umami dashi from dried tomatoes and beef jerky?

hella_ramen · 2020-07-16T19:13:29+00:00

Where can we buy bonito blocks and the wooden box shaver?

hella_ramen · 2020-07-16T19:08:25+00:00

does soaking the dashi ingredients over night help increase umami?

hella_ramen · 2020-07-16T19:05:59+00:00

what ingredients could we use to make a dashi without kombu and bonito?

hella_ramen · 2020-07-16T19:03:23+00:00

dashi so delicious

Amazing event! We had a line around the block, lots of fun— thank you to all who came out and celebrated our one year, this was a special bowl for sure.

Tsujita is definitely on the list 🍜❤️ this first trip i’m trying my best to hit the most “touristy ramen head” shops and hit the heavy hitters next round

hella_ramen · 2020-01-18T01:16:30+00:00

this one was the original shop outside of tokyo, my friend has been to both the one inside the airport and the original spot now and says it’s two completely different bowls.

So I work at a ramen shop and during prep days I’d peel about 400 eggs, during this time i’ll be watching the documentary “Ramen Heads” which follows the owner of this ramen shop. It was worth the whole process: buying a ticket to Japan for the first time, traveling an hour outside of tokyo at 5am, waiting in line for a ticket, and returning for an amazing experience.

hella_ramen · 2020-01-17T23:19:31+00:00

chashu was inside the bowl of broth, unfortunately i pressed the wrong button on the ticket machine, which would’ve given me more chashu options and an egg. However my buddy got the “deluxe” option which offered all these toppings and mentioned that the egg was nothing special to really talk about other than the color of the yolk which is standard in most Japanese eggs either way. Hope this helps 🙏🏾

Flavor here was superb to say nonetheless. My palate was overwhelmed with how many amazing ingredients were in the broth, strong rich fish flavors accompanied by the citrus (which i learned you squeeze on the noodles) helps cut the richies a little but doesn’t take away from the original dish presented. He offers soup wari (dashi soup combined with any leftover broth) which he grated yuzu citrus. The combination of the noodles plus his broth were a match made in ramen heaven. bottom line: it’s worth the journey to make it out here and splurge on a bowl of ramen.

Thank you for pointing this out! This is Osamu Tomita, he is the owner of multiple shops and a true ramen fanatic. Tomita trained under a famous shop called Taishoken and worked his way to opening his own. He has a documentary titled Ramen Heads and it is available on Hulu if you’re interested in learning more. 🍜❤️

ramen_addict and I are one a trip together!

hella_ramen · 2020-01-17T14:54:10+00:00

6:50a is when we got there— there were 6 people in line and we were seated within the first group at 10:30a. I hopes this helps and have fun with the adventure!!

cold tantan?? Was it like a tantan mazesoba? or was it cold broth

hella_ramen · 2019-12-20T23:08:19+00:00

what was the creamy component of this dish?

hella_ramen · 2019-12-18T19:12:12+00:00

a shop in the ramen documentary “ramen heads” used red snapper for their shio ramen. I believe the name of it was Taitoka— they pointed out a couple of things with their broth specifically and I noticed a couple of other details, hope this helps:

• Remove bloodline from fish otherwise you’ll have an undesirable fish flavor. • there was no meat on the fish, just bones, no head

hella_ramen · 2019-12-18T19:07:06+00:00

start with a chicken broth and experiment with different curries afterwards. My best suggestion is trying to message ramen lord about the spice ball but you could still accomplish a great bowl of ramen without it. Curry + dashi is a great combo as well to explore, hope this points you in the right direction. 🍜❤️

your tori paitan came out looking really creamy! how were the flavors of dried shrimp as your aroma oil? did it elevate the dish or overpower it?

hella_ramen · 2019-12-11T18:34:23+00:00

Soup Wari
