High Plains Lockdown Fridge Dive - Instant Shin Ramyun --> Okinawan TanTanMen (Pt 7 of X?) w/ Pr0n!
I've had a hankering for some TanTanMen (Okinawan Spicy Ramen with a killer ground pork "garnish").
Yesterday, I whipped up a batch of the ground pork in the cast iron (subbed some white wine, as we have no sake), and put it in the fridge. We're missing the Okinawan/Japanese spices to make the authentic version, so this went on the back burner. Today I did find that we have Shin Ramyun (I'm sure y'all know about this spicy ramen)... Hmmm. Why not!? Let's give it a try. Since the meat just needed to warm up, I concentrated on the noodles and broth. In quick succession, I put in some Tamari, Rice Vinegar, Chili Oil, and some Tahini: Next came the spice packet and the freeze-dried veggie packet: I added in the pork, some garlic quickly sautéed in sesame oil, the hot water to cook the noodles/make the broth, and a fancy snip or two of green onion. CINCHOUSE was thrilled. For the munchkin, we used the same bits and bobs but skipped the chili oil, and the Shin spices. I subbed in beef broth. She loves all things having to do with / containing noodles. We're stuffed. Time for a nap.

She used to eat most anything... now she whines if I walk by the table with an unopened bottle of Texas Pete.
No spicy for her (thus, the substitutions and such).

Cheers, Bill! We're thankful that some of our Okinawan friends from the BossLady's dojo knew just the right presents for our baby shower.

I just wanna hang out at yer spot and look through the pantry and spice cabinet just to see what y'all got - love the selection! Oh, wouldn't mind this or any other delicious eats you're putting up while I'm at it!
I'm just now getting able to get back around to ramen. I know it's great, but it reminds me of a very lean time in my life - it was kinda like aversion therapy. But, my young 'un is all into it and makes great stuff. Great eats - loving it!

I understand the ramen angle, as it was a staple in my life for a good 2-3 years when the budget needed that option. Once we hit Japan, it became something enjoyable again... and TanTanMen swiftly became my absolute favorite (and the most accessible restaurant that served it closed w/in months). I've been watching videos on YouTube of folks (especially Korean street vendors) who start with a commercial package of ramen, but then take it to a level I've never seen before at home or on the street. I guess this was my attempt.
