Time to turn up the hot Japanese noodle soup

by

Noodle soup
Now that autumn is upon us and we are starting to feel the cold creeping in, it is the perfect time to start making steaming hot Japanese noodle soup. There is something magical and healing about sitting down with a big bowl of ramen or udon and letting the warmth of the soup embrace you as you enjoy the complex flavors and delicious textures.

Ramen is perhaps the most well-known Japanese noodle soup, and for good reason. It is made with a rich and flavorful broth and served with various toppings such as vegetables, meat, and a soft-boiled egg. The noodles are thick and elastic and absorb the broth, so you get a perfect taste experience.

Udon is another popular Japanese noodle soup. This soup is made with thick wheat noodles and a tasty broth made from Japanese ingredients and raw materials. Udon can be served with a variety of toppings, such as tofu or vegetables.

On the noodle soup course for beginners, we make 2 very different tasty noodle soups and ramen soups from scratch. Soups suitable for busy weekdays that can be enjoyed all year round.

Why should fish for sushi be frozen?

by

Fish to eat raw should always freeze. This is because fish contain parasites and the only way to kill them is to freeze the fish.

A small side jump. You should also fresh beef to tartar cows get parasites in the body like fish. Unfortunately, I do not know if beef to tartar is frozen. But I do not think so.

Now back to the fish. It is not the same type of parasite found in e.g. in tuna as in the salmon. This is because there are 2 very different fish species that primarily eat very differently.

In addition, the fish structure of the salmon and the tuna is very different and also affects the parasites found in the two different fish.

How long the fish should freeze is not the same and it depend again whether there is a whitefish, salmon or tuna.

At Sushi course for beginners I will talk more about the Japanese rules for freezing fish. The Japanese rules are more strict then the Danish rules. I choose to follow the Japanese rules as they know more about fish for sushi. In addition, I would also like to be on the safe side.
