RE: Japanese-inspired Tonkotsu with a twist

in Photography Lovers2 years ago

This is better looking than a lot of the Japanese places I eat at here. I love a good Tonkotsu and I usually eat it a few times a month. I have never made it at home before because it is so much work. I made pho a few times and made my own bone broth and that is a very long process as well, but this is a whole new level. The amount of time and care you put into everything, even the eggs, is pretty cool to see. This looks delicious man.

Thanks man, that's a pretty big compliment! tyty. I love to spend a lot of time in the kitchen and cook something extra nice from time to time (wouldn't be able to do this every day though). Yeah, if I would make everything from scratch, it would take me definitely two whole days.

Oh man, I think Pho is just similar to making Shio or Shoyu, right (in terms of time)? Haha, a lot of people make it in 10 minutes, but if you wanna do it properly it can cost you a day xD.

The eggs are pretty easy to make, just boil, ice bath, peel, make a few incisions and put them in the egg bath, and let it sit for 8 hours or something, turn a few times, and they can really taste next level xD.

When I made pho, it took about a day and a half to make the broth. That was the hardest part. It turned out really good, but it was just so much work. lol

Yeah man, it kinda makes you think about making extra broth to freeze in for later :P
I like the way how the broth reflects the quality and care that you put into making it. I've been skimming so much, I really had to try hard to get any dirt out of it lmao.

We should do that hotpot thing sometimes man. But then spend a few days cooking and doing it ourselves.

Hot pot is the best
