You must measure the pH in the dough not in the water because the protein of the dough buffers the pH far down. Put more water and a little bit oil in the dough for the right texture. For this noodles Lye water is used. Its a K2CO3 solution. Original there was a lake in China which has naturally this basic water. All the noodle pulling started from this place.

So i can use lye for my noodles? I just bought some and I think my baked soda was not hot enough. If you took this recipe, what amount of lye would you use?
@alexanderhaag235
@alexanderhaag235 7 лет назад
I've just eaten my lye noodles with chili oil and they were very chewy because I used a lot of lye water. Try the ratio of 120g flower (half cup) 10g oil 30ml lye water (2 big spoons even 1 spoon is enough) 40g water 2g salt at 30°C. Its important that the dough is in the end like a warm chewing gum otherwise something is missing. I cut thin stripes and stretch it long before cooking about 3 minutes in salt water. Rinse the cooked noodles in warm water and all alkaline stuff is gone.

Don't put too much as it releases water and CO2, and the steam creates bubbles (it looks like mini geisers). Keep stirring until it stops. When it stop releasing gas, you are done.

I made this today finally!!! I love instant ramen, and have been eating it for years. Always felt guilty for eating too much instant ramen, and wanted to try it by myself. *I prepared sodium carbonate on stove, as a chemist told on comments. I think it worked just fine. *I dont have pasta machine so I had to knead and cut them with my hands :'( it's difficult but worth it. *and also I got tired at the end, and instead of cooking noodles separately, I just put them into the broth I was cooking (as I always did with the instant ramens.) But dont do the same mistake as I did. The broth got blurred/ muddy a little, since the noodles were fresh and coated with starch/flour. Be patient! at the end whole family enjoyed the ramen.

Bake baking soda @150°C for 1 hour 250g all purpose flour 100ml warm water 3g salt 2g sodium carbonate Mix and knead until you get a shaggy dough that holds together. Roll through pasta machine until a nice smooth soft dough forms. Thin out to about 2mm, pass through slicer and coat with rice flour.

H+ (protons) normally keep the proteins apart. Basic pH means a lack of protons. Under this condition carboxilic and amino groups of the proteins complex themselves to an endless string. This makes the dough chewy and stretchable like a warm chewing gum. You need to pull the dough to noodles. Try to develop this structure.

In the US we use pickling lime [calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2, ~12.4ph in water solution] as a strong base (caustic) in the kitchen for making crispy gherkins, nixtamalizing corn, preserving eggs in lime water, etc. It is readily available in food grade and saves the step of baking off sodium bicarbonate to sodium hydroxide.

I wouldn't use calcium hydroxide because it could react with the co2 in the air to form lime and also I want to mention that the pH level just shows the concentration of oxonium ions. So there's no fixed pH level for any chemical.

I'm looking forward to a couple soup powders and flavored oils. Having something that can be made to eat as fast as instant ramen definitely has appeal. For the base, maybe some bone broth and soy powder, but I think the oils would be a little trickier. I don't eat ramen a lot, so I'd want something that could last a while. The only thing I can think to do would be to freeze the oils in an ice cube tray for individual servings.

Siddharth Desai Not to come across as rude but everything he did there was vegetarian. The eggs are optional and don't really contribute flavor or structure to the dish. Most recipes for ramen are vegetarian in nature. It's meant to be a quick cheap and filling dish. So meat is usually optional Or added for more variety. Really you have to play around with favors veggies spices herbs ect with the broth.

You should do hand-pulling noodles! It’s a simple concept! But can be failed with simple mistakes.

TLDR: All-purpose flour is acceptable, but the actual flour should be 50/50 mixture of what we call bread flour and cake flour. The traditional flour mix used in making ramen is a 50/50 blend of high gluten (what is called bread flour in much of the western world) and low gluten flour (Cake flour and pastry flour in the western world). The all-purpose flour makes ramen that taste more like ramen because it is around the % of protein you would get if you mixed high and low gluten flours. However all-purpose flour will not be exactly the same thing as mixing the two since it is a homogeneous mixture. With the blend you will get parts of the noodles that are higher or lower in their gluten levels.

Can you make a gluten free version?? Pretty please?! Rice noodles are great but let's face it...they are far from Ramen. I miss them soooooo much. 😢

Try soba noodles, they're made of buckwheat.

I am gluten intolerant so I will give those a try with gluten free flour lol. Wish me luck TwT EDIT: this actually worked quite well! Added one egg and a bit more water cuz gluten free flour soaks moisture like heck. My nain problem was the pasta maker because its biggest thickness is already like 1.5mm and the noodles often broke off since the dough dried out quickly. Since there is egg in it I boiled them for 3 minutes to store until the next day! They do taste good, might need a bit more sodium carbonate tho for the tang. Hope this helps someone!

"We're going to bake the baking soda!" Me: nooooo that's super caustic, you have to be really careful "Remember to use eye protection and gloves!" *is wearing neither (glasses don't count)* Me: aaaaaaaa *uses wax paper to weigh and dump loose sodium carbonate powder* Me: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Kids, don't be like this man. When you practice mad food science, observe proper safety procedures.

apparently sodium carbonate can irritate the skin if handled improperly. ive been wondering if its safe to use in food, but people have been doing so im not sure.

You're super great, your skills make me jealous, your taste draws me in, your positivity makes me smile. I hope you have a nice day, for all days. You're super, super great.
