Tonkotsu Ramen | Basics with Babish

Enter offer code “Babish” at Squarespace.com for 10% off your first purchase, or visit: smarturl.it/BWBsquarespace
Tonkotsu ramen: less an essential skill and more a right-of-passage for the modern home cook. And, you know, an essential part of Japanese culture and day-to-day life. Sure, it takes two some-odd days to make, and sure, you can burn your hands on the alkaline salt, and sure, getting every element just right is a constant barrage of challenges. But with that first steamy slurp comes a superlative sense of accomplishment - not to mention, a truly delicious dinner.
NOTE: Any time I said baking powder, I meant baking soda - do not write and perform voice-over at 7AM when you are not a morning person.

Hands down, without a single shadow of a doubt, the pork broth in tonkotsu is literally the richest, porkiest, most hearty, most delicious broth I have ever tasted in my entire life. There is literally no substitute for a substance this heavenly. It is ABSOLUTELY WORTH EVERY SINGLE DROP OF SWEAT PUT INTO MAKING THIS DISH. WATERY SOUP THIS IS NOT! With that said, I will admit that it is A LOT OF WORK. I want to be able to eat this everyday, but alas, I neither have the time to watch a pot boil all day, nor I have the money to burn on expensive pork bones. So is there a less epensive way to make this? Does there exist some elusive "instantly tonkotsu" dry soup mix out there that I can purchase?

Love these Babish videos, and thanks for this walkthrough - it looks so delicious that I really need to pick up some ingredients asap! One thing to mention... You've spelled "tonkotsu" correctly, but in the video you call it "tonkatsu". It's subtle but they have very different meanings. tonkotsu (豚骨) == pork bone, as in ramen broth tonkatsu (豚カツ) == pork cutlet, which is generally breaded/fried, and served with cabbage, rice and an amazingly delicious dipping sauce - kinda similar to A1 steak sauce, imo The only component they actually share is ton (豚), which means pig. Both are very delicious dishes though... perhaps make a tonkatsu video next? 👨‍🍳

[@micah9382]

Depending on how you like your noodles, you can get a smoother texture by dusting with corn starch instead of flour. The different is striking, particularly when making something like soup dumplings where the noodle is supposed to be very delicate.

'Tonkatsu' is fried pork cutlet, 'TonKOTsu' is the pork bone broth you're talking about!

This needs to be higher. I am slightly disappointed that Babish didn't know the difference. But the recipe itself looks DELICIOUS.

Beautiful mate. There’s a ramen place near my mum’s place and when I was living there I would eat their food at least 3 times a week it was AMAZING. I really miss it. If anyone happens to be from Sydney Australia try out a place called Kuro Nero, easily the best ramen I’ve ever had.

You're saying "Tonkatsu" as opposed to "Tonkotsu". Tonkatsu is fried pork cutlet and Tonkotsu is ramen broth.

[@psr_gaming]

Not like english is much better, can means two different things, whether and weather .etc

[@googlymoogly64]

Japanese has tons of homophones, more than English, due to how Chinese readings got adopted into the language. But tonkatsu and tonkotsu are not pronounced the same way. The o and a vowels sound different.

[@bongus]

An american pronunciation of tonkotsu sounds like the japanese pronunciation of tonkatsu. He’s pronouncing it with the o sound in “cot”. I guess he just doesn’t want to pronounce it traditionally.

[@chaos_cat]

yeah this ramen is amazing. My friends and I had a ramen party before college started because one knew how to make the soup and I had a pasta machine. And yes, the only way you can get a pasta machine is via a gift
