Reviews
"Ramen, in all its many variations, starts out simple. A simple stock, a simple tare, and some simple noodles. It is from these simple roots that home chefs can let their imaginations run wild. Amy Kimoto-Kahn lays the groundwork in the first few pages of her debut cookbook, then gives the home ramen chef enough ideas to satisfy their slurp cravings for years to come." - Brian MacDuckston, Ramen Blogger (www.ramenadventures.com)
