Welcome back to Guga Foods everybody I want to thank Audible for sponsoring
this video. Today I am preparing the ramen burger. You know it looked awesome
on Instagram when I saw it. But does it taste good? I'm curious to find out. Check it out.
This is the ramen burger when I saw this in Instagram I was like oh my
god, I have to make that. And I was super curious to find out if it tastes good.
It looks incredible, but does it taste good? Well I'm gonna show you how to make
it and we're gonna find out if it does. Check it out!
The first thing we need to do is boil some ramen. And if you are wondering this
is the cheap version that you find it in any supermarket. To be specific this is
the one I used. I just follow the instruction on the packaging and once it
was cooked I strained all the water. As you can see I was left with perfectly cooked
ramen. In order to make buns we need a binder and I'm using two raw eggs. All
you have to do is beat them up and add them to the mix. Now please note that I'm
not using the packaging that comes with the ramen I'm only using the noodles. And
obviously to mix I'm using my tiny whisk you know where that comes from. In order
to make a bun, I'm using this container it is a very similar size of a regular
burger. We also need another container to go on top to press the ramen down and
for that I was able to find this one. Now here's how I made it, after trying it for
about 15 different times and it's always getting stuck and crumbling on me, this is
the best method I tried. I lay down cling paper on both containers pressing the
edges down as best as I could. Only adding oil to the container will not do
its job you will get stuck and damage your ramen bun, so if you don't want to
experiment 15 times like I did this is the best way to do it. This will ensure
the bun will come out perfect every time. Now after cooking these five different
ways one of them was in the oven pan fried and so many others the best way I
found how than with the best texture is to steam it. By steaming it you will do
two things; you will cook it gently and keep the noodles nice and soft and it is
the perfect way to do it. It takes 10 minutes to steam the ramen. Once that's
done all you have to do is remove it and see your work of art. And here I give you
the perfect ramen bun. After doing this so many times I found out that you don't
have to do it the same day you're eating it, you can make a bunch and they will
last in your refrigerator for four days. After the fourth day it will start
getting way too dry but at least you can make it the day before and have a big
party later. And one last thing, you can keep the packaging that you made it on
and save it just like that. For our sauce it's pretty simple, remember exact amount
and the description down below. I started off with kecap manis which is sweet
soy sauce, followed by some ponzu sauce, a tiny bit of sushi vinegar and I finished
it up with hoisin sauce. Now all there's left to do is mix it well and my sauce is done.
For my first toping I chose bacon, and as you know the best way to cook bacon is
on a baking sheet and a cooling rack. Just lay it down nice and flat stick it
in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit and they'll come out perfect, crispy and
flat every time. For the second topping me and Angel love eggs
and as you can see I'm gonna be using these beautiful quail eggs. The funny
thing is that a lot of people have trouble opening them including myself. I
used to use a knife and just chopped it all out and 90% of the time I just rip
everything apart, but then I got one of these cool tools and make my job a lot
easier. It actually made me use quail eggs a lot more as you can see it is a
perfect fit, and there's nothing to it just chop it up and you have a quail egg
perfect every single time.
In order to make a nice presentation I decided to
find them up on a ring, but you really don't have to, this is for presentation
purposes only, but it gives a nice round shape to fit the burger. Talking about
burgers, I'm using these Wagyu patties. As you can see the marbling is incredible
even with the packaging. Now obviously even though I'm using Wagyu patties you
can use any kind of meat that you like. The way this patty comes will not fit my
ramen bun, so I decided to make them the perfect size. The only advice I can give
you is that when you're making your own patty do not press it too much. You want
to have some crevices inside of the meat so that the fat inside can render down
and make your burger taste even better. If you compress it too much you'll be
basically making meatloaf. But now a little word for my sponsors.

Now that I have my patties ready all there's left to do is toast my ramen bun
in some olive oil and cook up this meat and make some beautiful ramen burgers.
But I say it is enough talking and it is time to cook it so let's do it!
Alright everybody we have our beautiful ramen burger. You see you asked me for
ramen, I made you a ramen burger. Yeah I was not expecting a burger today. He's been asking me
all the time Guga can you make me ramen I want to try real ramen. And well,
steps by steps. Yeah. But this is a ramen burger. Baby steps. Are you ready to try
it? Let's go for it. Obviously there is no green stuff for you, you're welcome.
Yeah I keep the green stuff away bro. What I heard about the ramen burger
is that is very messy, so when you bite on it is going to be a mess. Wait, wait
the ramen itself or like these. I don't know the everybody says that he's very
messy so let's just go in and dig in for it. My first time just like you. Are you
ready for it? You can grab it uh mine has the
cross-section. Oh it's juicy. I think next time maybe the sauce should go on top of
the burger, it's all over the bottom.
Alright, Cheers! Cheers!
Not too messy.
Man tastes like ramen with a burger. It's good
It's good. It's good!
I like it. It's real good. It's big as hell.
I'm going again. Oh this old this one fell apart
Oh man that's not good.I'm going again.
I gotta break it down. Mmm that's good.
Oh wow I just ate just the ramen so I could get closer to the beef
it tastes good by itself you should get a little bite, just the ramen.
Mmm it's like crunchy on the top. Yeah. But also very soft in the middle.
I like that! Oh man. You know it's something that you see a photograph of and then
you want to give it a try, I gave it my best shot
I'm not sure if I did it a hundred percent legit. What I think I did it
turned out good, the bun is good "bun" which is the ramen.
The ramen is good. It holds its texture nicely. The wonderful thing about it is
that you can do a bunch of them, save it in the refrigerator and then when you're
ready to cook just sear them nicely on the pan and cook them up. That is good
because the thing that takes the longest to make is the actual bun. If you have
never tried the ramen burger please give it a shot I don't think you will be
disappointed, I'm not. I'm surprisingly very happy with this and any time I have
like a special party or something I definitely make it for people to give it
a try, because I've never seen anything like it.
It will be like the... oh man did you go to that party? I know. The one with the ramen? Exactly that's
unique everybody any taste really really good. Guys I hope you enjoyed this video,

My bad.
That's how good it is you know some countries you
know that they say that if you burp that's a good thing. You know that?
I don't really think you should put that in the video whether it's a good thing in a
country or not I don't really think you should do it. When you go to college this
is all you eat. That one hurt man! Why? I'm a college student bro.
But that's not all you eat. Because I have you!
Well you know how to cook. Yeah but you know sometimes you gotta you got
