I made ramen

Finally got around to reducing my Meishan pork broth and had to sample it so I threw together a pork ramen for staff lunch at work yesterday.

The soup is just pork broth with a splash of light soy sauce and sesame oil.

The sausage is where I added the aromatics:

  • ground pork (I like half ground once and half twice)
  • 1.5% salt
  • 0.5% Sichuan peppercorn, ground
  • 0.3% brown sugar (optional)
  • 1.5% minced garlic
  • 0.7% minced ginger

If you can't stuff a sausage, frying the loose mix is a perfectly acceptable topping too.

Planning to make a spicy chicken version next time.

Thanks.

Boil enough water to keep the egg submerged by an inch. Add the eggs to boiling water. Remove after 8 minutes into a cold water bath for a minute or two. Peel and halve.

That's the closest dish we have to a bowl at work (butcher shop).

Hahaha I'm glad this was the first comment.

true. soup feels like it should be round, doesn't fit in a square box

Which is weird, because liquids are kind of famous for taking the shape of the container they're in.

So how did you like the broth and the sausage? Sounds delicious!

I didn't ever try the sausage on it's own, only with the soup, noodles and other toppings but it fits perfectly as designed. We make a dumpling filling that we also sell as a sausage, this is just an incomplete version of that, as the other ingredients (aside from cabbage) are elsewhere in the dish.

Next time I'll add salt to the broth. Even without sauce it could have used a dash or two. I've been eating a ton of sausage lately and wanted a low(er) sodium meal.

We all LOVED it, multiple coworkers rate it restaurant quality. I've never made ramen from scratch before (believe it or not I've never even soft boiled an egg before!) so while I admit this is a super simple dish to make I still take it as high praise.

That's impressive - definitely sounds amazing! But I reckon you need to start boiling some more eggs then haha!

I used to cook at an all day breakfast joint, I pretty much stopped eating eggs after than.

We sell them at the shop. I'm not sure the brand, I'll take a photo next shift.

I already answered that.. it's the only bowl-like dish we have at work. Alternative was plating it in a clear plastic half litre container which wouldn't fit the toppings at all.

in case you don't have a straw, you can just drink the soup like a cup of tea next time
