That, my friend, is a work of art.

How is the meat prepared?

Any recipe for the Ramen would be greatly appreciated. It looks fantastic!

Looks good but not quite as good as





That is such a good looking dish it's worth a second look

I used recipes from some great blogs I found on Japanese cooking.

Here's the Chasu (I used rolled & tied belly)

The noodles

and the Broth

Opening scene of Tampopo. (I recommend the whole movie!)

I am addicted to noodles. I have to watch this entire movie, than you Elbone!

I'm planning a ham dinner (it's part of the pig, so I guess it's pork), and I'm trying to figure out what beer to cook it in. I'm going to be stuck with store-bought (or butcher-bought) ham, so I can't feed it any grains á la Sean Paxton, but I CAN continually baste it in beer. I have a chef friend who does that with Dr. Pepper (tastes AMAZING!), but BEER is where I want to go.

So what beer do you all think would go well with ham? I'm thinking an Old Ale, Scottish Wee Heavy, or possibly a Robust Porter. I want complexity of flavor, and I REALLY want to taste the beer. And every time I've cooked with stout or some of the lighter ales, all of the other ingredients COMPLETELY overpower the beer.

Any thoughts?
