(Part 2) Reddit mentions: The best pasta & noodle cooking books

I bought this cookbook a long time ago. You can get it used for cheap. It's a great cookbook. Not exclusively noodle soup.

Asian Noodles: Deliciously Simple Dishes To Twirl, Slurp, And Savor https://www.amazon.com/dp/0688131344/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_7lMlyb80H361H

THIS BOOK is an expensive Kindle book by an underrated ex-pat who lives in France. Highly recommended; her recipe measurements and cooking times are always spot-on, something rare in cookbooks. //I know the author from a distance, but trust her recipes implicitly, having cooked many of them as published.

I know you commented this half a year ago but I just saw it now so here’s the link: Prison Ramen

Enjoy!!

We had this book in my house when I was a teenager and it basically taught me how to cook. She has a lot of "use this fancy imported ingredient if you have it, if you don't don't sweat it" kind of instructions. It's very reassuring for a beginner. I see she also has "Mastering the Art of Italian Cuisine" that came out a couple years ago, that might be a good option for OP.

These are all great starts -

Use kidney beans and chickpeas with chopped veg (mushrooms; peppers, aubergines, courgettes, etc) and spices and chopped tomatoes to make stews that last for days.

I recently bought this book:

...and it's got fantastic stuff in it. Also check out BBC Food website for recipes.

I've been good I swear!!

You can never know too much about Ramen! Maybe...

for onigiri fillings, try pickles or marinated artichoke hearts(with the leaves cut off). Also, do you have a mold, or are you hand-shaping them? they're easier to fill with a mold

also for ramen recipes, try this book (I own and love it):

obviously, unless EVERYONE wants to chip in, you're gonna want to but that used

For me and a buddy he is "that guy" We watched a movie called "The Stoned Age" when we were younger and he was in it. He played a character named Tack. Ever since then we see him show up in EVERYTHING and always say to each other "Its Tack that worm!"

As a kinda gag gift this year i got him a book co-written by Clifton Collins Jr called Prison Ramen.

1 & 3/4 cup of ricotta
3 tablespoons of flour
2 eggs
1tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
parsley finely chopped
3/4 cup of parmesian

mix together in bowl

Heat vegetable oil in a pan on stove until it is hot enough that batter will sizzle

spoon 1/4 cup of "batter" onto pan and press a tiny bit to make pancake shape. 2-3 minutes, flip and do other side

serve with tomato sauce on side if you desire

The Complete Book of Pasta and Noodles and an Ol' Miss plush doll for your dogs to chew on.

I meant tonkotsu and mispelled it.

Also, I know tonkotsu (the ramen) isn't chinese, but they have ramen in China. And actually, in The Untold History of Ramen they talk about how the origin was a Chinese soup with noodles in a pork broth that migrated to Japan and then the Japanese took it and ran with it.

That's besides the point though...Do you think in China they only have Chinese restaurants? Do you think they don't have ramen shops and all kinds of other ethnic cuisines...? They have every kind of food in China, just like we do in the west where we have restaurants of different ethnicities. Not sure why you had such a big problem with this.

Minor technical point: the U.S. didn't exactly "send" wheat to Japan.

They made it appear that they were giving it away, bit in actual fact they were forcing Japan to buy it and supplant the rice culture.

The U.S. Had lost a major customer for its wheat and saw Japan as a potential replacement market.

This was aided on part by puppet government officials receiving incentives, but Japan spent a long time paying the U.S. Back.

There became a black market for wheat, which yielded the growth of street vendor ramen stalls.

Um Mal deine Frage zu beantworten, nachdem dir hier alle sagen wie einfach kochen ist

hierfindest du einfache Rezepte mit genauen Mengenangaben die auch noch gut schmecken.

No, but there are usually enough options that they can eat what is vegan and leave the rest. Most meals (like hospital food) have way more calories than a person needs for a meal, knowing that people won't eat everything.

Prisons do have kosher meals, however. And not just in Orange is the New Black.

The food tends to be really, really bad though. No fiber, no fresh veggies or fruit (all canned and mushy). Check out some pictures here: https://www.themarshallproject.org/2015/07/07/what-s-in-a-prison-meal#.k2zSZctWu

The food is so bad, that ramen packets have become the default currency of prisons, over cigarettes. People who can't afford to buy food from the commissary (little prison store) will trade for them. So much so, that now there is a whole variety of prison ramen cookbooks for inmates.
