Does anyone have any tips on creating my own ramen or something

Not much to say, really. Make your own stock, boil noodles, add your fixins (green onion, boiled egg, spicy chili crisp, sesame seed, whateverthafuck), and enjoy.

Good, simple ingredients.

>cook noodles with baking soda
Anon...sodium bicarbonate is not the same as sodium hydroxide.

Spaghetti squash, nigger. Shit is great.

are you telling him to cook with products from home depot?

OP here, I'll probably fry the noodles I made in olive oil tomorrow morning, then google some broth recipe, is that ok?

Kansu/Gan Sueh, or lye water, is an alkaline liquid traditionally used to make ramen noodles and give them their springiness and color.
Sodium hydroxide is lye. I wouldn't suggest buying it from Home Depot because I doubt it would be food grade, but lye is or has been used in making ramen noodles.
I was pointing out the fact that OP seemed to be using the wrong sodium salt is all.

I remember reading a recipe for making your own alkaline noodles and the first step was heating baking soda in the oven, this activates the sodium bicarbonate and turns it into something else, which you use to alkaline your boiling water.

It's possible that by heating you dehydrated sodium bicarbonate into sodium carbonate, another common component of gan sueh.
Also the verb form is "to alkalise", don't ask me why

Wiki says
"In cooking, [sodium carbonate] is sometimes used in place of sodium hydroxide for lyeing, especially with German pretzels and lye rolls. These dishes are treated with a solution of an alkaline substance to change the pH of the surface of the food and improve browning."

No man.

If you want broth, don't fry your noodles. The only quick broth to make is miso. Otherwise you'll need bones or a chicken carcass and a lot of time.

If you want fried noodles, don't add broth, add a sauce. Cook everything in batches to keep heat high.
