Ramen School - A Visit to the Osaka Ramen School

[@51TGM71]

God I love channels like yours and videos like this, the internet is so awesome! Thank you so much.

[@airacakep]

Amazing! Ramen school & Japanese knife craftsmanship definitely in my bucket list!

[@Katurha]

7:10 "Ooooh nice, i love that" >4 walls, a bed and two windows

[@Official-OpenAI]

Thank you for this video Brian. I've lived in Japan most of my life and I Love ramen, but I never had the ambition to go to a ramen school, or to just make it myself. But after watching the video I feel like I can casually visit one and learn how to make a bowl.

[@robertp457]

I'm making a trip next year for sure! Can't wait!

[@ramenadventure]

Please sign up well in advance. The school is full 2-3 months in ahead of time.

[@Zetunez]

This is definitely for me. Would love to do a 3 day course if I ever muster up the money to visit Osaka.

[@tonydeltablues]

A Very Cool Ramen Adventures episode Brian. Thanks Tony

[@ironqqq]

was planning to visit Kyoto in early 2018... hmmm... would be a great 1 day excursion treat!

[@ramenadventure]

The school is 1 hour from Kyoto Station, so you could make this happen no problem.

[@vueone27]

It's 90 degrees in the Chi City (and humid) and I'm STILL Feenin for some RAMEN! Hope everything's good, waiting for more beautiful Ramen bowl vids!?

[@ramenadventure]

Please bear with me. I have about 12 videos that need to be edited, but i have some other projects that came up.

[@matthew_berman]

awesome video!

[@grayel]

Man, I just found your channel today, mid work day..... Awesome channel, but killed my productivity and made me hungry, so I guess you're doing a great job! Keep em coming!

[@ramenadventure]

Haha, my pleasure!

[@AntoineThisdale]

This is very cool. Considering this as a vacation option.

[@BigPawTivald]

i always find my self wishing for 20min + vids from you Brian. Solid work. I wish it was cold here in idaho so i could be enjoying some ramen my self. if it was cold enough in the house id make some for my self.

[@ramenadventure]

Thanks. I try and keep my videos around 5 minutes, but this one was different.

[@usbeertraders9487]

Ramen Adventures I agree, sometimes I wish for a little longer video.

[@edwardnygma4531]

Love this, do you have a recipe for tonkatsu broth? If not could you please do a video for one. It's my favorite and I can never get it to look that creamy. Thank you!

[@徳勝もなみ]

土砂降りの屋外で食べるカップラーメンほど、壮絶な食べ物は無い。

[@TokyoFoodAdventures]

I really respect you!

[@ramenadventure]

Thanks!

[@teddy1068248]

First video of yours I've watched, it was awesome definitely sticking around for more!

[@ramenadventure]

Thank you very much!

[@vueone27]

Great vids! I'm falling in love with Ramen! 👍✌️

[@ramenadventure]

Thanks!

[@Ito614]

so kool,i hope one fine day i will be able to join thanks a lot for that video man

[@nhk20]

I took the one day class. Loved it!

[@eedricdude]

How much is the one day course? :)

[@StagnantMizu]

what does it cost

[@Erick-gx8qu]

nhk20 how much does it cost

[@26btb]

This is lovely.

[@valgroove551]

if you ever visit Vienna, Austria - please check out 'Karma Ramen'! I'd be excited to hear whether you like it or not :)

[@ramenadventure]

Thanks, I'd love to go back there (it's been about 15 years since I went)

[@jaguardo10]

Amazing content as always. That looked like an awesome trip.

[@CobraMiura]

U are da man Brian...thank u for the video!!

[@ramenadventure]

Appreciate it.

[@seoulcycle]

I wanna come sobad to this school! Maybe next year.

[@ramenadventure]

Just let us know well in advance.

[@JHung7200]

Awesome video!

[@Jalanvaloss]

Yo Brian, good stuff again. Love!

[@ramenadventure]

Thank you for the HUGE amount of interest in this school. Please email me directly at [e-mail] if you are interested in a class. And please add "Osaka Ramen School" to the subject line to help me out!

[@picnicbox444]

Love your videos Brian! been checking your updates on your website and cant wait for some new videos (hopefully some motorbike ramen tours)! Im traveling to Tokyo for my first time going to Japan end of August, super excited to binge watch your videos these next two weeks. Hope this comment finds you in peaceful times :D

[@ramenadventure]

I filmed 10 Ramen Riders videos and 2 normal videos. Just need to edit them. Stay tuned!

[@Yammie_Moto671]

They seem so friendly in Osaka. When I went to Tokyo the people were cold.

[@ramenadventure]

A lot of people say that, but give Tokyo a chance!

[@scudonepercenter]

Good video! Wish I could make my own ramen. Maybe some day.

[@mwuuuu]

Damn, if only this was posted last month... I'm in Osaka right now! Had some pretty good ramen here the past few days

[@ramenadventure]

Thanks. The school is booked for almost the next 3 months. Let us know well in advance.

[@TheMrWillje]

I didn't know weird al was a ramen lover. That ramen looks amazing, though. I can't wait to make my own tonkotsu. It's my favourite dish of all time.

[@ramenadventure]

Woah. I was actually stopped in an airport about 10 years ago because they thought I was Weird Al. "Just eat it"

[@TheMrWillje]

You do look very much like him! While I have your attention, (hopefully), I'd just like to say that you're channel is so great. You have such a great personality. It seems something as simple as ramen means so much to you and it's so nice to see someone so passionate about it. I love your channel. Keep doing what you love, man. You're making people happy. Will

[@ramenadventure]

Appreciate the kind words.

[@PT111111]

Cool stuff!! Now all I need is the basic recipe to make that ramen noodle dough. Can you hook us up with that Brian?

[@ramenadventure]

Yeah, I think I'll do one of these videos.

[@edubogota1]

Whats is really incredible is that you havent done a review of Ichiran Ramen,which is probably one of the best Tonkotsu style in the world....

[@N.M.2004]

This made me hungry 😄

[@angelaescorpiso8444]

when are you going to take the next step and open your own ramen shop?

[@jameslerner846]

If I came to Japan/Tokoyo would you show me some cool spots, soba, ramen, udon?

[@ramenadventure]

I do food tours as well: www.ramenadventures.com/p/food-tours.html

[@MrMikeilic]

This looks osom. - Was planning a trip to Japan. this is my priority.

[@jander6442]

Nice. What a dream!

[@randylindsay9946]

Awesome video Brian. Really cool what you are doing. Any change I can get a bit more details on the vegan ramen??? I already make my own version of vegan ramen, but I'd like to know more about what they suggest.

[@ramenadventure]

They make one with a mushroom broth and soy milk. The base and tare are similar to the video I did recently with avocado tsukemen.

[@mehapl2318]

great info...nice video as allways

[@agentk1930]

please visit menya san shou hajime at koshigaya station saitama ken you will love it i guarantee it to you .

[@aironrn8476]

Yeah it's a dream to be at this school. sanaol

[@adbethsing6800]

So, where exactly can one purchase/import/source one of these professional pressure cookers? I have been looking all over websites in the USA and I cannot find anything that will go above 15psi. Do you have a source, can you direct me?

[@youngmommapix7826]

Hi, how much could i possibly spend for 5days course with the accommodation. I have always wished to attend a ramen making school but i have a tight budget and looking forward to save money for this.

[@sergeikhan2268]

love your videos much love from Ogden.Utah .USA me and my wife we own our ramen shop here in ogden and i was wondering how much are those pressure cooker and how big are they . i use regulaer 220 quartz pot that boils over 12 hours for the bones

[@ramenadventure]

In Japan, people lease the big ones for a few hundred dollars a month (maybe as much as 600 but I'm not sure).

[@ZeroSumJ1]

I can’t get the creamy tonkotsu broth right. Comes out wrong every time. Trying to master it. Hopefully I’ll nail it eventually.

[@ethanb.h.7428]

Hair made from scratch. Audio video and background people made from scratch. Scratch made from scratch. Scratch. 😂

[@ramenadventure]

Scratch!

[@ludius9667]

What did they put into the vegan ramen bowl?

[@punbishal5874]

I wanna join some day the ramen making class

[@ramenadventure]

Please try and reserve as far in advance. It is the begging of June and they are booked until late August.

[@trogdor20X6]

why does osaka have english language train announcements?

[@davidder2803]

That noodle machine at 4:20 looks awesome! Anyone know where one might purchase one?

[@ramenadventure]

If you join the class the teacher can hook it up

[@michaeltee1113]

wow awesome

[@Verse1234567]

Thank you for light, well edited content, as always, and for mentioning vegetarian/vegan options! Question: you look stylish in G-Star Raw in most of your videos. Is that a favorite clothing brand or are you sponsored? Either way, looking good.

[@ramenadventure]

Japanese brands tend not to fit me. I'm thin but very tall. American brands are too dumpy. When I found that G-Star fit well, I just kind of got obsessed. Also, you can order online with free shipping (sounds like I'm sponsored lol) which was a bonus. Shopping in Japan can be annoying; I'll find something I like but it won't fit.

[@Verse1234567]

I imagined since g-star is international the size might be a draw for you. Cool clothing hack for shopping clothes in Japan! That's why I travel, food and clothes, haha.

[@DaiQuyPhan]

Wow, the ramen maschine is incredible! Where do they afforded it? I would like to buy one too.

[@ramenadventure]

There are a few companies that make them in Japan.

[@mark-angelofamularcano237]

For a foreigner that also doesn't speak Japanese, can I just go to any ramen shop? Are there rules that I should follow in choosing what kind of ramen shop I should consider?

[@ramenadventure]

The only big rule is - get in, eat, and get out. Shops in Japan really hate it when people hang out for longer than it takes to slurp a bowl. Especially if there is a line.

[@jhonyliau5293]

awesome videos, I want to open ramen restaurant so bad😅, how much is the 5days course cost? Thanks

[@ramenadventure]

+Jhony Liau around 3k usd. Mail me for the latest!

[@TheDarwiniser]

very cool.

[@BoyAditya]

great experience! have you said to the master, do pressure cooker effect the taste? how's compare to almost a day boiling the soup broth?

[@ramenadventure]

Pressure cooker tends to be a bit creamier in my opinion.

[@BoyAditya]

Ramen Adventures is that a good thing? *I have no idea what is a good taste like LOL

[@josephbaguio9827]

Is it ok to enroll? Even if im only a trainee here in japan?

[@Fwakerz]

hey brian, aside from the awesome ramen videos.. where did you get your jacket? it looks really nice! big fan, been watching and liking almost all of your videos! keep up the good work!

[@ramenadventure]

It's one I randomly found in Kyoto a few years ago. Super cheap, but I wear it all winter long practically.

[@juzxju1472]

Hey man can u come to shanghai try some ramen? Tell us which ramen is good in shanghai.

[@slaiyfershin]

What is your camera setup for those long walking shots to apartments? Is it a DSLR or camcorder? Handeheld, on a backpack like Gopro or some gimbal? Would love to take such videos for holidays.

[@ramenadventure]

That one was a DJI Osmo+ gimbal. Cool camera but a pain to set up. Now I use a GoPro.

[@slaiyfershin]

Cool! Thanks Brian! Interesting video as always.

[@henaheru]

Hey Brian, Did you stopped making new videos? I hope not! Greetings from The Netherlands

[@ramenadventure]

I took a break to work on some other projects. I'll be back!

[@joy12division]

You better be. Other project Japan food related that you want to share with us?

[@hernandezkiyoko9164]

Wow ! Very yasashi Sensei !

[@ozsnowbum]

Hey Brian, Love you channel. Me and my wife are visiting Osaka next month and we were wondering what ramen shop you'd recommend. We are not ramen connoisseurs, we think Ichiran is amazing :D keep up the good work bro.

[@ramenadventure]

I made a best-of list last year from around Japan. Numbers 9 and 10 are Osaka: www.ramenadventures.com/2017/01/the-best-ramen-in-japan-2016.html

[@TravisOmegaa]

Hello Brain from @Ramen Adventures I just E-mailed about enrollment in a class for July.

[@ramenadventure]

I'm super sorry that they are booked up until late August.

[@TravisOmegaa]

Ramen Adventures is it possible to enroll in a December class because me and my friend will be back in Japan for thr holidays?

[@reneweiss96]

Is the Workshop in english or japanese? Bc the notes on the flipchart were english 🤔

[@ramenadventure]

The teacher is Japanese, but a translator will join

[@jonathanng6164]

Hi Brian! I am interested in sourcing the super pressure cooker to California. Can you please provide me with a sales contact or a site (via PM or otherwise) that I can look into buying this equipment, thank you!

[@prolific9002]

commedy or knocker? Made from scratch

[@sqwormza178]

Wish i could do this

[@aaronferrer4973]

Hi Brian, I checked the corresponding link for your blog to look for the school fee, it says for 1 or 2 students will cost me 55,000 Yen but on the link for the school says higher amount that I don't think I can afford. I am really interested in learning how to make ramen and I really wish to enroll in this school.

[@ramenadventure]

The Osaka ramen school is currently 55,000 yen. I'm not sure what link you got a higher price from.

[@aaronferrer4973]

Thank you for getting back to me. I clicked on this link from your blog, ramenschool.jp/ramenadventures/ and this is where I saw their prices. Anyway, I believe you and hopefully I can enroll soon. Thank you for the great video, its very informative.

[@quincest1]

I have never heard it. Looks interesting :)

[@ChefJoeG19]

Brian have you ever had Ramen in Okinawa?

[@ramenadventure]

The only ramen I've had was at a place called Stripe. www.ramenadventures.com/2015/11/stripe-noodle-in-okinawa.html I had a few amazing sokisoba bowls as well.

[@Poseidon99Jeus]

"Home Depot" got his part of free advertisement(2.34, hammer)- thanks to Mr.Ramen Adventures

[@jovanypedroza85]

Love this I want to go so bad

[@vanessak7276]

how come its completely vegan? using the creamy bone soup!

[@ramenadventure]

The vegan soup is made with mushrooms and soy milk.

[@cabral_del_elpaso]

I am gone of sign up for some classes

[@ChefJoeG19]

I would love to take this!

[@tagged5life]

How do you get such smooth footage?

[@ramenadventure]

+Z I used a gimbal camera

[@Conqueeftador-369]

Hi, based on your experience? Which school do you prefer? Rajuku or dream academy?

[@ramenadventure]

+angelo tablante I cant choose. What you see is what you get.

[@flashcloud666]

Pressure cookers go up to 15 psi period. Three times that is 45 psi. That pot doesn't look no where near robust enough to handle a pressure that high. Sounds like a marketing gimmick/lie. And there are regulatory boards to make sure pressure appliances or machinery meet certain specs and adhere to codes/inspections. And I'm *quite* sure Japan adheres to them since their society is all about safety.

[@ramenadventure]

I wish I had details about it. The pot, however was extremely solid.

[@hatrixie]

Hi! is the 1 day course still ongoing? Also I wanted to ask usually how long are the full course?? I want to know more details for this school, thanks!

[@ramenadventure]

+Alex Albano please email me at [e-mail]

[@ramenadventure]

+Alex Albano yes! Please mail me for details

[@JeyKalda]

The way you wear the hat bothers me more than it should... damn.

[@thaiharmony3928]

want to take a class. I sent the school an email but got no response. Any other way to contact them?

[@ramenadventure]

I received your mail and will respond tonight.

[@KamoteCueBBB]

Is it possible to take this course without prior culinary experience?

[@ramenadventure]

Yes, most people who join are not professional chefs.

[@WanaBgamer]

I love Karaage

[@user-wv1rd4he4e]

Do you know any vegetarian ramen restaurant? Thank you.

[@ramenadventure]

Soranoiro or Oka in Tokyo are great. www.ramenadventures.com/2014/05/vegan-ramen-at-soranoiro.html www.ramenadventures.com/2015/12/oka-in-shinjuku.html

[@user-wv1rd4he4e]

Thank you so much!

[@michaelgutierrez4272]

how much the cost to learn that and for how long ? i really want to learn that. and do i need a student visa ? and thank you for this video.

[@ramenadventure]

+michael gutierrez please contact me if you are interested. [e-mail]

[@ramenadventure]

+michael gutierrez you don’t need a student visa as far as I know. Please email me directly for details. [e-mail]

[@michaelgutierrez4272]

Ramen Adventures I did but until now no reply from you

[@BecomingTheBear]

next vid?

[@mark-angelofamularcano237]

Where can one get that pressure cooker? Thanks!

[@ramenadventure]

I'm not sure. The school has a hookup with the company. I don't think they are sold to the public, only restaurants.

[@srirachasymphony]

Mark-Angelo Famularcano I bet you could use an instant pot and get the same results

[@Brendan06000]

Hey, great video as always man. Do you plan on going to Kyoto and trying a few places, or is it just not a ramen place?

[@ramenadventure]

Kyoto has some great shops. I hope to go there soon for videos. Of course, I've reviewed a few spots on my blog in Kyoto.

[@orlandofierro8598]

What are the prices for the classes?

[@ramenadventure]

+Orlando Fierro please check the link for current prices. 55,000 at this time

[@bskdopeboy]

Awesome... but, having spent some time in Japan, all I could think was "how much did all this cost?!"

[@ramenadventure]

The class is about 55,000 yen.

[@bskdopeboy]

For one day?! :O That's £365!!!

[@usbeertraders9487]

You did a great video on Ramen Eggs, any chance you can do a video on more, basic Soup recipe would be awesome. Chasew (probably spelled that wrong)

[@usbeertraders9487]

Found one for Chashu in your "how to make ramen" video

[@ramenadventure]

Yeah, I hope to do more of these.

[@usbeertraders9487]

Ramen Adventures thanks for responding. Love the show keep it up. With the Ramen Eggs I am loving them. They are so good and so flavorful. I tend to add Garlic, scallions and ginger into my marinade for just a little more depth.

[@Yogirliej4dee]

Ramen Adventures The ramen looks very tasty!

[@boski05]

Clear or creamy by temperature? HOW??

[@ramenadventure]

Once the bones are soft, kick up the temperature and get all the creamy collagen out! There is much more to it, but that’s the gist.

[@FusionFoodBlog]

Is the course in Japanese or English?

[@ramenadventure]

There is an English translator the whole time.

[@scottyplug]

So many missed opportunities in this video. Where is the detail? The depth? I tuned in to watch and see how Ramen was made at this school. I got none of that. Way too shallow. And I'd love to see a vid about the knife making too! I'm a regular viewer, but feel like you dropped the ball on this vid. . .

[@ramenadventure]

I see what you mean. I was just trying to show a quick snapshot of what the school is like and what you get to do there without going into the details of the class. I just added the knife stuff as an aside, but I would love to go back and spend a day shooting all the aspects of knife making. I'll be in Osaka in a couple months, so I have a chance.

[@scottyplug]

Hey! Awesome of you to respond so quickly! I meant no disrespect, believe me. I freaking LOVE RAMEN. Maybe as much as you! I actually have just learned to make my own Tonkotsu totally from scratch. It's part of the reason I was so anxious to see this school in depth and in action. Takes 22 hours to boil, and about 3 days to really prep it all. I honestly believe you would really enjoy mine. I envy your life brother and wish you well. Keep the vids coming! Would love to see that knife making vid. I'm super intrigued with that smoking/hammering thing going on. I'm an amateur chef myself and just ordered my first, honest Japanese steel knife. Cannot wait to get it! Looking forward to more of your "Adventures"

[@smod220]

5:35 What is that in the center?

[@ramenadventure]

Renkon, or lotus root.
