So, a spicy egg drop soup. I like that.

That's kind of the point.

So jealous at all this egg talk.

They are damn fun to cook fwiw. My favorite item.

Two eggs with ground black pepper and chili flakes.

Doesn't look pretty, but it tastes good!

Jealousy revoked.

Im unsure how it could look better. Maybe if the eggs were all poured in at once, it wouldn't be so cloudy.

Sh*t. It's way too late make that.

Is it? It's never too late for precious.

It's too late.

No.

I'd think mayo adds more fatty richness

OK, I got some Korean "ramen" packets from CostCo. (Not fried, so not really ramen, I guess) As is, they are really good, just boil the noodles, strain, and mix with the sauce packet. Simple, but pretty tasty, as is (also 2/3 RDA sodium, mmmm).

I'd like to incorporate a couple eggs in, but I'm unsure how to proceed. The instructions are simple: bring water to boil, add ramen, boil for 2 minutes, strain and mix w/sauce. Do I add the eggs whole or beaten? Before the noodles, with the noodles, or like with 1 min left, more or less?

I'd probably add some hot sauce (Cholulu preferred).

Noob cook, ldo.

First off, I don't strain. Sometimes I'll pour a bit of broth off, but most of the time I just dump the whole thing in a big bowl. Didn't your mom teach you that broth is good for ya?

Second, yeah man just plop the eggs right into the pot. It's easier than you think.

- Put water on to boil (medium)
- Toss in your veggies. I usually throw in some diced onions, celery or carrots, greens, and a bit of garlic.
- Once it starts roiling, put your noodles in. Stir them for a minute or two so they're soft and pliable.
- Crack eggs and plop them into the pot, look at the clock. Let them cook for about 2 minutes.
- During this 2 minutes, prep your bowl. Either put your sauce packet in the bowl or other seasonings (I use rice vinegar, soy sauce, and a small drop of liquid smoke).
- Take the pot off the stove. Strain out whatever amount of broth can't fit in the bowl, then pour it all in.
- Let sit for a couple minutes before consuming.

I pour the salt packet into the boiling ramen.

Made my own variation of Yaka Mein but no boiled/pickled eggs. Sautéed some green onion and baby bok choy I sesame oil. Added some soy sauce, Thai sambal oelek hot sauce, Crystal hot sauce and fish sauce. Added hot water and dry chow mein noodles. Added some brisket my friend cooked up over the weekend. Took off heat and cracked some eggs into the pot at the end. Don’t stir.

Deeece

yup

Screw the soup. Just give me the brisket.

Look at this guy over here throwing A+ slabs of brisket in his ramen!

I'm all about that brisket.

What's the deal with brisket?

well I made the Kenji carbonara - the sauce came out good - no scrambling of the eggs, but I think the reason I haven't made it in a while is it's not really anything special. I should say Kenji used guanchala (pork jowls) and I used bacon although I used pancetta before. Maybe that makes a big difference, because the taste is just egg sauce over noodles to me.

It's ****ing delicious.

Says someone who's never experienced an awesome brisket.

whoooooooooosh

I wish I liked brisket.

Just kidding. It's great, gotta go low and slow tho bc it's tough.

lol, yeah.

Thanks good enough for me. I’ll give it a go with bacon and will report back.

No surprise.

Of all ****ing people to pick a fight with.

RG it's all good when it comes to me ftmp, but you really read the temperature of the room wrong. You can apologize but when, for no reason, you go after a nice guy who's not a pussy it doesn't usually go well.

We tend to have long memories.
