In this Vlog, I introduce the Tokyo Ramen Street. With the concept of “never get tired of going for a week”, “Tokyo Ramen Street” is a collective place of famous ramen shops from various genres. This time, I chose the Soranoiro Nippon to try their vegetarian/vegan tantan ramen as well as basic Shoyu Ramen (Chuka Soba). In the end of this video, my son (aka Temporary chef) Kengo also talks like a professional YouTuber. 😆 Enjoy this vlog!

My Miso paste container.
I use miso quite often. In addition to miso soup, it is also used for rice balls, Japanese-style pasta sauce, pickled meat and fish, and baby food and kids meal. At home, These miso will be used up in about one month.
Not to mix red miso and white miso in a container, I put dried kelp between them.
By saving in this way, you can save three types of miso (white, red and brown) in a small space. I like this method very much because my fridge is for business use and very small (about 1/3 size) compared to family/home use in Japan. 🇯🇵
If you are interested in miso, please read this article. Thank you!
Have you ever tried Japanese curry? Unlike other curries, Japanese curry is a little sweeter and thicker. How about making Japanese curry roux from scratch? This is an updated version with additional seasonings.
