I know it is still very early to claim the winter weather here in UAE, but the temperature recently definitely showed a cooler breeze here in the desert. Well, anyhow, I'm totally enjoying it :) Although this change of weather here also marks a season of colds and flu :( and for foodie like me, the craving for hot soup. Yep, something to warm-up my tummy and to satisfy my ever craving palate.
I've been asking my husband to dine out in a recently opened restaurant featuring bowls of ramen and Japanese style rice bowls topped with different meat of your choice. But since, I've heard no so good reviews from my friends, I just decided to do my own version of tonkotsu ramen at home.
Considering a little effort in preparation, I think it was worth it though. I have to buy pork a day in advance to have it marinated overnight for a flavorful result. The ingredients are not so complicated but requires some techniques. Even boiling of eggs was a little delicate than my usual boiled eggs. It has to be cooked yet the yolk should be a little runny to add flavor in the ramen. Good thing I was able to achieved the perfect texture by boiling it not more than 6 minutes.
Anyhow, here's how I did my homemade tonkotsu ramen!
