This is my boy Naruto, my family's favourite anime
And this boy can eat
He just loves ramen and his favorite one is this one;
Tonkotsu miso ramen
Haiya pronounce wrong again
It tonkotsu, not tonkatsu
Tonkatsu mean something else
This is my boy Naruto, my family's favourite anime
Also, Naruto your favourite anime?
That a bit basic
That like saying your favorite band is Coldplay
Or your favourite chef is Jamie Oliver
Straight from Ichiraku's ramen shop
And today I'm going to be showing you my take on Naruto's favorite ramen
And the first thing we gotta do is char siu
No no
Haiya not Char Siu
Char Siu is Chinese barbecue pork
It the thing Uncle Roger say is halal in my food truck video
Is Smoky barbecue pork halal?
Yes
What you want in Naruto ramen
It Chashu
Chashu is Japanese braised pork belly
Guga, don't call thing by wrong name
Auntie Helen call me by wrong name once
And that how I know she is cheating
The first thing we need to do is to marinate
So I started with
Good, marinate, correct
Followed by sesame oil, then I added mirin, dark soy sauce
Brown sugar and white pepper
Now all there's left to do is to mix it well because your marinade is done
A bit weird, a bit weird but okay
What I like to do is to put it in a vacuum bag
This will ensure that the entire surface of the meat is fully covered with the marinade
Wait, no no no
You marinated it after you cook, haiya
Who marinate before cooking?
You got it wrong way around, Guga
That like bringing woman to bedroom
And then buy them dinner
You want to let it marinate for at least 12 hours
Okay, 12 hour okay
I took it out and this is what it looks like
The dark coloration is a sign that the marinade did its job
Oh,It go from white to black, opposite of Michael Jackson
Now the next thing we need to do is to go ahead and roll this up
so that we can cook it
Correct, roll it up, correct
So the first thing I try to do is to
To just roll it into yourself like this
And man that does not work because take a look at this
No it work, just roll
The best way to do is to go ahead and split it open a little bit more
This will give me more
No no no need to split it open
It working, you roll just fine
Why give yourself extra work? Why slice shit up?
And man that does not work because take a look at this
It's just not a good idea
That how you know Guga don't beat his kid
Every Asian parents who hit their kid
They all know how to roll newspaper super tight, haiya
Guga, just beat your kid a bit, beat your kid
And then you learn how to roll shit properly
The only thing left to do now
Wasting time
Because once I was done, take a look at this
Now that is what I'm talking about
That what they call bondage
Bondage is Uncle Roger favorite genre on the Hub
Because it remind me of making ramen
Sorry children
This not only for a great presentation but it will also cook evenly
Talking about that the next thing to do is to go ahead and throw it into my smoker
Smoker? Guga, naruto ramen, the pork belly just look braised
Not smoked
But I guess this is Guga
Judging from his previous video Uncle Roger review
He love playing with fire
It's also gonna give a wonderful smoky flavor
And if you don't have a smoker you should definitely get one
Who have space for a smoker in house?
Guga, not everybody rich like you, have big house
Uncle Roger house, I can barely afford stove
Who can afford special smoker?
Because once you hit an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit
This is what it looks like
Fuiyoh, color nice, color nice
I am missing a little bit of char on the top
So for that I just grab my torch and went to this is quick work
That a lot of fire
Haiya, Guga, Naruto ramen again just look braised
Stick to the correct anime, This Naruto not Last Airbender
Now before slicing the pork belly, you want to let it rest for a little bit
If you don't, the juices just gonna completely run out
Correct
So after you rested about one hour
One hour not enough, put in fridge better
And as I did oh I could not be happier
It look nice, look how juicy it is! The juice is still squirting out, Fuiyoh
This Chashu juicier than Nephew Nigel Instagram DM
By the way, go follow nephew Nigel on instagram
He just move house
Post a lot of his moving house bullshit
We're talking about the broth
This one is where all the flavor comes from
And remember this, it's not a race but it is a marathon
A marathon is race
Which is usually made with pork bones
But since I did not have any and it was hard to find
I went to the next best thing which is ribs
Ribs? no no no
Nobody use rib for ramen broth
Ribs for ramen? yes!
That's what I'm talking about
Now this next ingredient is not traditional whatsoever
What
I wanted to add it to my ramen because I love it
And so does everyone else in my family
And as you can see it is beef bone marrow
No, beef bone marrow...
And I wanted to add it to my ramen because I love it
I know you love bone marrow
But you can't just throw shit you love into ramen broth
Otherwise, Uncle Roger ramen broth gonna be made out of rice cooker and Nigella Lawson
This has an amazing flavor
And hopefully it's going to take my ramen to a whole new level
The next ingredient I'm going to be adding is this one
Okay, chicken feet correct
That doesn't look good and I agree
Because I mean who loves chicken feet?
Who love.. who
So many Asian people love chicken feet
That my only foot fetish
Sometime I wish chicken can start onlyfans
Oh, but chicken feet in ramen broth, that good
I added everything into a large stock pot
Throwing a good amount of water and took it outside
Because this is going to take awhile
As you can see a lot of scum is gonna come up
Ah, he removing the scum
Good, good
You can skim it little by little and that's okay
Nice work, Guga
Ah, and he removing the blanching liquid
Very nice
That how you getting my nice clean broth
Nephew Nick forgot to do this
That why his broth as dirty as his brain
After about four hours, the next thing to do is to add a bunch of other ingredients
And here's what I choose for this broth
We got ginger, garlic
Yes, aromatic can go in
But make sure you only add aromatic near the end of boiling
Maybe the last hour or so
Otherwise the flavour not good
So after adding it all up I just make sure
Mushroom have umami flavour
It's time to leave it alone
Once that time was up I went ahead and added even more flavor
And here's what it is
Is that dashi??? Ah he making dashi, good good good
Dry seaweed
Kombu, correct for dashi
Let that simmer for about 5 minutes
kombu and bonito flakes, good, dashi, good
Because once you are done you are rewarded with this
I'm telling you friends, it is incredible
Haiya, soup colour a bit too dark
At this stage, tonkotsu broth supposed to be white and creamy
Look at my good friend way of ramen Channel
That how tonkotsu broth supposed to look
I think you Guga didn't boil it hot enough
The fat didn't emulsify, haiya
However it is still not 100% done yet
Because we need to add two more special ingredients
Miso?
And as you can see I chose the red and white
Adding both gives a wonderful flavor
Just make sure that once
No you don't just add miso into your broth
You should make miso tare by itself separately
You can't just drop miso into boiling water
Because the heat kill the miso flavour haiya
You wasting miso, miso very expensive
Don't boil it!
But now that our broth is ready, the next thing to do is to start up our toppings
And the very first one we're gonna make is eggs
These are super easy
Let's see
Soft boiled
Soft boiled, good
Boil my eggs for a total of 6 minutes
Once the time is up, I immediately throw them
6 minute a bit fast, but it okay
Ice bath good
The next thing we gotta do is the marinade
So into a bowl I threw in a little bit of soy sauce
followed by mirin, sesame oil, a good amount of brown sugar and finish that off with water
Mix it well because once you have done so the only thing left to do is to add it to the eggs
Marinede look a bit too dark
You want the same colour as Obama
Not Wesley Snipe
Keep in mind that the longer you keep them in there
The stronger the flavor of the marinade will penetrate
Don't use the word penetrate when describing cooking
It very sexual, this word
Don't say penetrate
Just say marinade, just say marinade
Three hours in the refrigerator
Haiya, he forget the paper towel on it
They turn dark real quick
Gonna have white spots
Imagine how you would be if you leave it overnight
And these eggs are good
See, see? No paper towel, the marinade can't penetrate the top part
It look like it got bald spot
We gotta make menma aka bamboo shoot
Menma, nice
This is what it looks like
Haiya, don't get it from tins
I was able to find was this one here on my Asian supermarket
But I guess menma very hard to get outside Japan, so that okay
Moving on to the next topping this one might be the most popular of them all
Narutomaki
Fish cake
No way you can make Naruto's favorite ramen without this
It is fish cake
And I think I understand why Naruto likes this very much
Check out the ingredients
Do you see what I see? Monosodium glutamate aka MSG, the king of flavor
It got MSG inside
Fuiyoh, Uncle Roger didn't know Narutomaki got MSG
By the way, many nieces and nephew telling Uncle Roger
MSG make them thirsty
And Uncle Roger say: don't be pussy
If thirsty, just drink water
Good food, worth getting thirsty for
Stop thirsting over women
Thirst over for MSG
It more satisfying in your life
MSG don't leave you
Now the last one and maybe the most important one of them all is the noodles
I've chose these, at least for me they are the best ramen noodles I ever had
What
The best ramen noodles you ever have?
Haiya, why your standard so low, guga
This just regular dry ramen you get at any Japanese shop
Have you never have fresh ramen in your life before?
It is pretty simple, there is no secret to it
Haiya, that ramen too thin also
For this type of miso ramen, you want to use thicker noodle
So now I say it is enough talking and it is time to plate and eat
So let's do it!
Good
Plating look nice
But he forgot one important element for ramen
Where the aroma oil?
Enough with the close-up
Why you want to show everybody you fucked up?
Alright everybody here we have our beautiful ramen today, Angel, No steak today
I love how he always look so happy
Bro, this is Naruto's ramen bro
That's right that's right!
From the Ichiraku ramen shop
Absolutely correct
Try to make it as...As authentic
Stop talking, eat now!
The seaweed soggy already, you see?
How does it taste? let's see?
Oh that's like
Oh come on now
That's like uhh chickeny pork
That is fire everybody! That's all I can say
One guy describe it as chickeny pork, the other guy described it as fire
Uncle Roger still don't know what it taste like
So weird too see Guga not eating steak
But overall, not bad
The ramen look exactly like Naruto ramen
Just next time, make your miso tare separately
And remember to make aroma oil, haiya
