Hee!
Not when I can get ramen from the grocery store at 10 for $1.00 if I get
them by the case. ;-)
I can dress it up myself for those prices!
Neat site for ideas tho', thanks!
I just found a sealed package of Nori when I was cleaning out a cabinet
this morning. Goes well when sliced up on ramen with sliced grilled
pork, canned straw mushrooms, minced chives and some sliced hard cooked
eggs......

I like them Jill, and always have - I'm just careful to avoid using
very much of that "flavor" packet <G>. I usually toss it and use the
noddles for something else. Why are they so addictive? And
dirt-cheap. Sounds like dream-food.

I fix two or 3 packs at a time, use one flavoring pack, add left over
veggies or open a can of green beans or something else I like. Then I look
all around the fridge for left over steak, chicken, sausage, hot dogs and
put one of them in.
I don't add the romen until I have heated up everything else. I use only
about 1/2 the water it calls for and get romen stew. The romen is supposed
to go on last. After I put it in and get it all wet, I break open two or
three eggs on top, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the eggs are done.
My mom used to do that in homemade stew and they are good.
The left overs go into the fridge and we eat on it for up to 3 days, before
we start getting tired of it.

Oh hells yeah - but for a fresh bowl of pork broth and noodles, from a
street vendor in china - would just love that! (With fresh sliced chiles
added, of course, heheheh...)

I have. They are like the Bruce Lees of pasta making - excellent stuff. You
ever seen the chop-and-cook guys making food to go at shop front window
grills in China? Amazing they way the slice, dice, chop, stir and flip that
food the way they do... scarily skilful - you certainly pay your bill if you
had any sense, eh?

There is real ramen and "instant ramen". "Instant ramen" is the one sold
with the salt "flavor" packets and are deep fried noodles (that is what
makes them instant because they are precooked). The real ramen noodles
that you get in a noodle shop are also the noodles you find in "lo
mein" dishes. The real ramen noodles taste much better than the deep
fried instant ones and are much healthier. They are not expensive and
you can find them in an Asian market.
Some of the best noodles you will ever have are from those stall places
that are typically located next to train stations.

How do you use comfrey to fertilize the tomatoes? I've always just
used it for medicinal purposes.

Tampopo is also really funny. Highly recommended. And no, ramen
noodles are to real noodles as baby puke is to the finest pat=E9. There
have been hundreds of 'ramen recipes' posted here in the past couple of
months. The simple substitution of ordinary dried pasta for that
pre-fried crap would significantly improve every single one of them.
But it would cost you five minutes of time, so I guess it's too
demanding.... -aem

I kind of thought so, but I'm not exactly a food expert - I just
figured that real, handmade noodles HAD to taste better, you know?
And yeah, isnt' Tampopo just a downright fun movie to watch? I
seriously reccomend Eat Drink Man Woman - it has to be the classic
foodie movie of all time. They wentthrough some SERIOUS pains to get
the experts in there to do the food. Quite a decent movie, if you
don't mind English subtitles.

baka. I'll give you one recipe that ramen beats pasta on every time:
Ready to eat out of the package.
And yes, ya snob, some of us don't always have ready access to stoves
(particularly when it's raining outside...)

OK, friend, ya got me there <G> I don't mean to be a snob, BTW. I
mean, come on, I like a big old plate of pinto beans just as much as
anything else. Food is food, and good food doesn't have to be
expensive or exotic.
