This video is a part of a series of various types of Tsukemen recipes that I will feature.

Tsukemen (つけ麺), also known as Japanese Dipping Ramen Noodles, is one of the most popular styles of ramen in Japan, especially during summer. Cold ramen noodles are served with pipping hot soup, to be dipped and enjoyed with toppings. It is an amazing contrast to have both cold noodles and hot ramen soup broth together.

Gyokai Tonkotsu Tsukemen (魚介豚骨つけ麺) is usually the most commonly seen recipe of tsukemen, where the soup base is mainly pork bones and dried fish. In my recipe, I used a mixed of pork bones, with niboshi & sababushi (dried anchovy and mackerel) to make the highly flavourful soup, complemented by shoyu tare and ramen oil. The noodles are hand made from scratch, with higher water content, in super thick, straight and chewy texture to fully absorb the flavours of the soup when dipping. The chashu is smoked with Japanese Green Tea leaves to add a unique fragrance to the whole experience.

After finishing the noodles dipped in the highly concentrated ramen broth, it is always recommended to add more soup so that it is more palatable to drink and complete the meal feeling warm. This process is also known as Soup Wari. If you haven’t tried tsukemen before, please do and you will find this a wonderful experience.

As always, I did not use any MSG because I try to use various alternative ingredients to bring out the umami in my own recipes.
