Alderic's | The Best Ramen in Singapore Epilogue

[@LVPictures]

if you are not attached how about alderic reviewing dating app?

[@xeenslayer]

This is not easy, a lot of work. But the good demo and explanation does remind us why Alderic could qualify to cook on national TV. Anybody can do a taste review on KZbin, but not everyone can cook and understand the science and mechanics behind it like this.

[@noproblematallmate]

Pressure cooking also does not allow certain odour compounds to evaporate.

[@nochoc]

respect the effort for the content! This must've been exhausting to film. Great work bro keep it up! this year you'll hit 100k for sure

[@iannathan5527]

Best fish and chips! Then can go UK try also 🤩

[@acy1993]

Keep up the great work man! Agree with many other comments, best bak chor mee would be a solid series!

[@garlicpepperchickenwings7807]

THIS SERIES WAS SUPER FUN!!!! LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT!!!!!!!!!

[@moonsterla]

Love your sense of humour and really appreciate the painstaking effort to create the best version of your ramen! Well done Alderic!!

[@Alderic.]

thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the videos (:

[@kusabento5697]

Congratulation in this completion of this ramen series. It's been a long journey to complete this video. Since we are heading towards Chinese New Year, Maybe the best Bak Kwa in Singapore series? :D

[@fynvox]

Dude, you are hilarious. Thanks for the step by step instructions and award yourself with one plate! Such tedious prep, great video…

[@lidna82]

For all the trouble, there are really very decent instant ramen from Don Don Donki. lolol.

[@alvin6638]

what a legend making ramen from scratch out of home kitchen. i saw the flour on the cabinet and i would have already gone crazy lol!

[@tristanang5407]

best bak chor mee series pls!

[@delvyn18]

when u said BOFA needs to be pressure cooked, i was awaiting the BOFA DEEZ NUTS, but i guess not.

[@jaredj6883]

How about where is the best chai tow kuey in singapore in your new series ?

[@God-wz4qb]

Been waiting all week for this video alderic, learnt alot from this video on how a tonkotsu broth is actually made and definitely in my eyes look like a 3 plate due to the effort and dedication put into the dish😂😂😂 cant wait for the next video on what food will be next, time to try bari uma! Also happy new years alderic hope you enjoy it with your family🎉🎉🎉

[@wonderbuffon]

Great video! Appreciate the effort, ramen is not an easy dish to make, let alone perfect. And this looks great, especially the charsiu. Just wondering why did it cross your mind to cook the noodles inside the broth? Surely from your experience, research and various visits, you'd have known to cook the noodles separately?

[@Alderic.]

thank you! I just got lazy, ironically. I think I would have gotten away with it had I not gone so heavy on the dusting flour. restaurants cook the noodles separately because they have to do many batches of noodles and the starch will build up, I figured just making one bowl should be fine.

[@wonderbuffon]

@@Alderic. Haha hope you have leftover noodles and broth to try again!

[@pricklyrick7253]

He boils his damn noodle in broth wth

[@zombiesforyou]

At least bro realised his mistake…. Lol

[@muspasuta]

next series : best roti prata in singapore (and a trip to malaysia and india to compare roti canai and paratha)

[@waterbottle_9087]

This is easily the best idea from all the requests so far. Cos the bak chor mee is like too “similar” to ramen. Chao tow kway(i like) but too “similar” to char kway teow. And anything angmoh is like got the burger and steak liao. I think this series is primed for prata. And… i personally think we need to save prata! If u dont count mamaks serving 200 items like briyani and kopicinnos, there is a dearth of prata specialist stalls in singapore. (My personal theory is that prata is one of those hawker items with a price curse. People expect kosong at $1. Eat two kosong full liao. Hawker only earns $2. So hawker have to diversify and sell other items, and the kosong prata standard suffers. )

[@kelvin3103]

This. If it’s anything but roti prata I’m gonna be sad

[@dianalim4170]

Nice

[@jchiew88]

@Alderic: This homemade ramen gets a unique "5 plates" i.e. "Will go anywhere in SG for the Ramen". Bravo & I admire your spirit of 'Kodawari'. 🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜 (as who else will put in 4+ days to prepare their ramen!) ... perhaps you'll inspire some folks just in time for V-Day i.e. home-made food alongside "Netflix & Chill" > the Rat-Race to get a V-Day dinner booking in town ?

[@liuszuling]

Ramen really is a labor of love❤

[@TanSean-up8gy]

BEST SALTED EGG CHICKEN LETS GO

[@brandonchan4740]

Best roti please!

[@heartbeatpoetry7704]

Best white bee hoon in singapore?

[@Darth-TBAG]

Best Maggie Goreng series next pls!

[@cloutd1750]

okay so my partner and i were discussing what alderic will possibly do in the next series. So i was thinking it would be something that he would have to travel for , maybe nasi lemak / laksa, but i was thinking that will probably be too basic for alderic. Something vietnamese, bahn mi. Or thai, tom yum. If he had the budget for it maybe korean or even further away for shepherd pie. But then again, most singaporeans may not like those items. Looking forward to the next series.

[@randomgandalf]

best pasta in singapore!

[@bellyhungry]

Thanks for spending time and effort producing these Ramen videos. I am a big fan of chicken rice. Will you be doing more reviews of them, perhaps with places that you haven't visited before?

[@chuazhiyu2947]

He's done a chicken rice series, you watched them all?

[@Alderic.]

chicken rice is probably due for a 2nd season hm

[@bellyhungry]

@@chuazhiyu2947 Yes, I devoured each episode. But I can't get enough of chicken rice, especially as someone from Toronto, Canada. 😀

[@summer8888]

Best fish soup in sg series

[@worldedit96]

yeah, lets do this so Alderic dont die from heart attack

[@pafethic]

Best oyster omelette!

[@jonasbansao5698]

3 plates for the effort man…🍽️🍽️🍽️

[@alvintanjunliang8509]

The effort to go to Japan to get ramen is a+ . Just somethings I think can improve the ramen as a whole , Noodles made and cooked on the same day . Aromatics added to tonkotsu to cook after taking out the bones and blending it. I saw like never flouring noodles for low hydration noodles not sure about high hydration , but flouring adds undesired textured and 40 percent hydration should be fine Kansui can be made with a mixture of potassium carbonate and sodium carbonate to reach a balance of texture and taste , baked sodium carbonate is good for a start but never a means to an end Tonkotsu creaminess can be improved with immersion blender . Chashu and egg done as desired it’s a plus But overall still better than my version Do best pasta in Singapore next ! One of the better channel to watch to make ramen although he never update for 2 years is way of ramen

[@Alderic.]

thank you so much for the input! I read that it's better to let the noodles chill for a day before using them. Although I did so, I'm not very convinced it did anything. and you're right, the noodles actually seemed pretty alright even without dusting. I just got a little too insecure.

[@somanydynamos8528]

I’ve been watching the series and was thinking of making a bowl myself, but 4 days… guess not 😂 maybe I’ll start with some bone broth cny hotpot soup first

[@delvyn18]

having made the ramen noodles itself before , i can say its totally not worth the effort holy cow, the amount of strength and patience needed to knead the dough given its 40% hydration and its DRY AF AND U DONT KNOW WHEN ISIT COMING TOGETHER, and i was using my FEET AT SOME POINT IN TIME TO PRESS ON THE DOUGH IN A ZIPLOCK BAG.

[@N1ghtmareJoker]

Nawh man. 9pm upload time. I gotta wait til tmr to watch this and have my meal.

[@aloysiusng5576]

Why don’t u request to spend one day at the kitchen of Brothers Ramen?

[@Alderic.]

haha they're very busy, shan't go and disturb them

[@poorinvestor7907]

How about the best mee pok in singapore❤

[@FirstLast-kz9ub]

Man I can't imagine going through all that effort. Normally I just make soya milk tantanmen or takeoka shiki to scratch that itch 0.o Btw it's literally more authentic to use maggi mee than proper ramen for takeoka shiki, bonus free excuse lol

[@bubsicles2731]

I miss fuunji too 🥺

[@handoyosudarga8020]

Please come back to local food, preferably bak chor mee, wan tan mee or lor mee. =)

whats bofa

[@arthurchin5711]

How can anyone miss the bofa

[@Alderic.]

what's bofa..?

[@testinghere9818]

do a bubbletea comparison for next series!

[@Alderic.]

what would be a good bubble tea to compare if I wanted to standardize? earl grey milk tea?

[@testinghere9818]

@@Alderic. yea true very hard to standardise unless plain milk tea and another one like no milk peach green tea kind 😅

[@God-wz4qb]

​​@@testinghere9818for a bubble tea series you would have to go with 2 drinks for sure from each shop, the best milk tea and best recommended drinks from each store like u suggested

[@ginify]

Your charsiew look better than any of the charsiew in the whole series though

[@dbddbddbz]

Pizza series

[@worldedit96]

Alderic, my brother in ramen, why did you go with tonkotsu ramen 💀 Its so labor intensive and it is not straightforward at all. I actually thought you would go for a more reasonably achievable paitan chicken ramen with a more refreshing palate than compete with tonkotsu in flavor. I guessed wrongly

[@Alderic.]

idk actually, the tonkotsu spoke to me the most haha. tori paitan would have been a great idea as well now that I think about it.

[@worldedit96]

@@Alderic. would be so good if you went with a normal chick stock broth and use that chicken oil as tare. For more flair for the video, maybe puree chicken liver and make a condiment out of it, it should make the lighter tasting broth richer. Chicken rice inspired ramen anyone? 🤭
