The Food Lab: How to Make Tonkotsu Ramen Broth at Home It's time for another round of The Food Lab. Got a suggestion for an upcoming topic? Email Kenji here, and he'll do his best to answer your queries in a future post. [Photographs: J. Like most of you guys out there, the ramen of my youth was served in two discrete serving sizes: by the Cup, or by the Oodle. *Damn you, George Lucas, for continually finding new ways to make me poorer and you richer thirteen bucks at a time. Imagine my elation, then, several years later when I found out that Cup Noodles are not the be-all end-all to ramen. Since then, I've been a man obsessed, eating ramen at nearly every ramen-ya in New York, and throughout different regions of Japan. *Don't worry, our love always manages to bounce back like a good alkaline noodle there's no smell more warming on a cold day than a big hot bowl of tonkotsu ramen set before you As a New York resident, I've got it easy when it comes to finding good ramen (check out our guide to the best here).

How to Make Bagels: A Users Manual at Epicurious.com - StumbleUpon While making bagels may seem challenging to home cooks, it's actually not as complicated as you might think. But before we get into the specific recipe and bagel-making process, let's explore a few urban myths: Do You Need a Special Type of Flour to Make Bagels? No. Bagel shops often use a type of high-gluten flour to achieve that distinctively chewy texture and to stand up to the rigors of mass production, but you can opt for more readily available unbleached bread flour and still achieve fantastic results. Plus, even though bread flour contains slightly less protein—12.5 percent compared with 14 percent for high-gluten flour—it actually tastes better. Is Barley Malt Syrup Essential to That Distinctive Bagel Taste? Yes and no. Barley malt syrup is available at most supermarkets, but if you can't find it, use brown rice syrup, honey, or agave. Can You Make Good Bagels in One Day? While not a difficult or labor-intensive process, bagel making is a two-day affair.
"Indulge" With Dairy-Free Spinach Stuffed Shells | PBS Food - StumbleUpon I can pack away some serious stuffed shells. Cheesy, warm and delicious, stuffed shells are the ultimate comfort food out there in my opinion. They’re also a great make-ahead dish for company. Whose eyes don’t widen when they see a huge pan of shells coming out of the oven? Lately though, I’ve been really wanting to experiment with a lighter variation, a vegan version. Call me crazy, but I wanted to see if it was possibly to cut the cholesterol but not lose any of the flavor. In this dairy-free version, I use a blend of tofu, olive oil, garlic and nutritional yeast as the “ricotta” filling and I swear you won’t be able to tell the difference! Cut down the cholesterol without losing any flavor in this vegan stuffed shells recipe from Jenna Weber of Eat, Live, Run. Ingredients Directions Drain the tofu and pat dry with paper towels. Yield: 6-8 servings Jenna Weber is half of the Fresh Tastes blog team.
