| Tokyo Style Ramen |
At last, it is time for Tokyo Style Ramen!! This post is the culmination of a couple weeks of posts covering the essential components of at-home Tokyo Style Ramen, which we learned to make at a cooking class hosted by Chef Shinya Asami (Cozymeal, Facebook). At the end of the class we assembled and rapidly consumed a piping hot bowl of ramen. Today, we will pull together all of the recipes for the broth and toppings that we have shared and create our own delicious bowl of Tokyo Style Ramen at home.
The recipes we have provided so far can easily be scaled to make multiple servings (if they don't already). We usually make enough for 4 servings of ramen so that we can enjoy ramen for dinner at least one other night during the week after putting in the effort to make it. The best part about ramen (aside from being delicious) is that it can be customized for your personal taste preferences. After making this recipe once, we encourage you to experiment and find the combinations of toppings and flavors you like best!
