Tonkotsu Ramen with roasted pork belly, Sun Noodle® Fresh Ramen Noodles, snow mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, narutomaki fishcake, kizami shoga, jammy eggs, scallions.
Interesting facts that I learned in my recent ramen course:
1. Ramen noodles are alkaline and very low hydration of 32-37%. The wheat flour for the noodles has a generally high protein level of 12% – similar to the bread flour I use for pizza which is 12.7%. The Hakata noodles in this Tonkotsu Ramen are an even lower hydration of 30%, which can only be made by machine. The Sun Noodle brand I used is the same used by many ramen shops. For a ramen shop to be able to afford the machine for these type of noodles they would have to sell at least 500 bowls a day.
2. The pork bones to make the broth have to soak for 6 hours and then cook for 8-10 hours, and as much as 18 hours in some restaurant kitchens.
3. John Husby, Chef and Co-owner of Chuka Ramen Bar says that the first prep shift in his ramen shop starts at 4:30 am. After the process of making the noodles and broth, then the proteins need to be prepared. In the case of pork, that’s another several hours.
