Ramen in Riga at the Doorsea restaurant: what is ramen, what kind of ramen is available at Doorsea, and a recipe for ramen with Wagyu.

What is ramen and what does it consist of?

Ramen is noodles with broth and various toppings: beef, chicken, fish, seafood, vegetables, herbs, eggs, mushrooms, and other ingredients.

This Asian dish is especially popular in Japan.

Unlike classic soups, most of the ingredients are cooked separately and mixed together in the bowl before serving.

The History of Ramen

The word "ramen" most likely comes from the Chinese "lamian," meaning "pulled noodles"

It is believed that ramen originated in China. This inexpensive, simple, and filling dish was popular among workers. They also brought it to Japan, where they began selling the soup from mobile street stalls.

After World War II, rice became quite scarce, but flour was supplied in large quantities from the United States as humanitarian aid. It was then that a real boom occurred, making ramen a cult dish. It spread not only to Japan but also to Korea.

Doorsea Wagyu Beef Ramen Recipe:

Rinse the beef bones, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil;
After the water boils, skim off any foam and continue simmering the broth over low heat for 1.5–2 hours.
While the beef bones are cooking, place the chicken carcasses on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at 190°C for 1.5–2 hours until golden brown.
Add the finished baked chicken carcasses to the pan with the beef bones and continue simmering the broth for another 1.5–2 hours over low heat.
After the broth has finished cooking, strain it through a sieve.
Add milk, salt, monosodium glutamate, and a small amount of sesame oil to the hot strained broth.
Stir everything thoroughly until smooth.
Cool the finished broth.
Boil 70g of egg noodles. When serving, warm them in the broth, then transfer to a plate. Hard-boil one chicken egg. Before serving, cut the egg in half and place it on top of the noodles (optional, marinate the egg in soy sauce and rice wine first).
Prepare and slice meat (beef tenderloin or Wagyu) or chicken (40g), and place it on top of the noodles.
Depending on your preference, you can lightly sear the meat with a blowtorch beforehand.
Sprinkle the ramen with sesame seeds (2g).
Add unagi sauce (15g) before pouring in the broth.
Add green onions (4g) before pouring in the broth.
Add ginger (4g) before pouring in the broth.
Pour the broth over all the ingredients just before serving and garnish with nori leaves.
