Ramen Tips For Your First Bowl #ramen #noodles #soup

Tori Paitan, meaning "creamy chicken soup" in Japanese, is a rich and flavorful ramen broth. Here's a basic overview of the recipe:

Ingredients:

Chicken bones: You can use a combination of backs, wings, and/or feet for maximum collagen.

Aromatics: Vegetables like onion, carrot, ginger, and garlic add depth of flavor.

Kombu (optional): This kelp adds umami to the broth.

Instructions:

Simmer the chicken bones: There are two main approaches. You can simmer the bones in a large pot on the stovetop for several hours (typically 4-6) or use a pressure cooker to achieve a similar result in a shorter time (around 1.5 hours).

Strain and blend: After simmering, remove the chicken bones and aromatics. You can then blend the remaining broth to create a richer, milkier texture.

Clarify (optional): This step is optional but results in a clearer broth. You can use a chashu strainer or cheesecloth to remove any

Flavor boost (optional): You can add a splash of soy sauce or mirin for additional depth of flavor.

Tips:

Soaking the chicken bones beforehand can help remove blood and impurities, resulting in a cleaner broth.

Don't overcrowd the pot when simmering the bones, as this can hinder the extraction of flavor.

Season the broth to taste after clarifying (if you choose to do that step).
