RAMEN GENERAL

>>9206906
I like the beef ramen with soy sauce, Spinach, pieces of steak, and scallions. Pretty basic.

>>9206989
Scallions are green onions right? It's an east coast word?

>>9207014
Yeah, I live in Colorado and I've only heard them called scallions.

>>9207020
That's kind of interesting. They're the same but we use different words.

>>9207020
I also live in Colorado and I've never heard anyone ever call them scallions

>>9207144
Must be a county difference then. Pueblo is kind of weird.

>>9207014
>>9207020
I only know them as spring onions.

>>9206906
Find some moso paste and your set amigo

>>9206906
Why the fuck would someone spend that amount of money and effort on making ramen, and then use those fucking freeze-dried noodles?

Yeah, thankfully I'm moving out soon but holy shit this place sucks.

I've recently started doing chicken ramen (Maruchan brand, half the seasoning packet) with a can of sardines (King Oscar brand) and some dried seaweed, either kelp or nori. It's probably a bit high on sodium (it is ramen after all), but I'd imagine the seaweed adds some nutrients I otherwise wouldn't get as often.

That souds like it tastes terrible.

>add actual chicken to chicken flavored ramen

How does one do this? Do I add the raw meat chunks in while it's boiling, or cook it ahead of time?

>>9209542
I mean, I think it tastes good, but you might not like it. Taste is subjective.

You could do either.

Adding raw chunks while it's boiling won't taste all that good though. Browning the chicken in a pan or with the grill first and then adding it will be much more flavorful so that's what I'd suggest.

why me

Shoyu is my favorite. Preferably made with niboshi. Egg marinaded in mentsuyu to add to the smoky flavors.

>>9206906
Why don't they sell ramen broth in shops? Chilled or frozen, ready to be heated up and used?

>>9207829
Pueblo is weirder than Boulder. That's an accomplishment.

Should you season the chicken at all? Do you add the seasoning packet to the boiling water?

I'm not the guy you're replying to, but I am also curious about adding chicken to ramen.

Try drinking a tincture of salt water before bed every night.

Ex-fucking-scuse me?

>>9206906

>>9206906

>Should you season the chicken at all?
For the love of god yes, season your goddam chicken before you grill it.

>>9212882
Then the noodles would not be instant nor so cheap.

>>9213150
If you're adding red peppers, pork, eggs and soy sauce to your ramen then they are not the biggest expense anyway

Add fried eggs instead of boiled. Way better!

Ramen boil with seaon packet and meat (usually sausage links or chicken), drain until most of the water is gone. Add cheese, let melt, move into bowl when melty deliciousness. Add honey.

>>9213150
In what world do you live in that a pack of ramen is cheaper than budget pasta?

>>9207829
pueblo is full of mexicans trying to over-associate with their culture, so of course they would call everything by some stupid name.

>>9216806
It is not as bad as Ft. Collins. I-25 is a fucking shitshow from there through Colorado Springs.
>inb4 muh weed
Yeah you need that shit for the 60 miles that takes almost 6 hour

>>9209567
Cook it ahead of time. It'll take forever to boil that shit.
