LilMoobly: Soba is not ramen. It’s not close. Like comparing plantains and bananas.
It’s very different, and the flavors traditionally used for its broth/sauce is also very different from ramen.
Snoopy101x: FYI Pak Choi = Bok Choy.
Krinny123: No no no never use sesame oil to fry! It’s used for it’s flavour only.
JohnnyEnzyme: Looks great, but– technically, isn’t ramen a different type of noodle?
Soba looks like it would hold up better actually, as I find ramen gets soggy very easily, sitting in broth.
-TheGoodDoctor-: I’m not sure I would consider this ramen. Looks ok though
sauteslut: Not ramen
BeerPizzaTacosWings: Gagh is always best served live.

thingsthatbreak: Not ramen. Sorry man.
Also it’s bok choy.
capital-gain: A *ramen* recipe without *ramen*?
Minscandmightyboo: This just makes me sad sad that some people think this is ramen. It’s not.
Nice looking soba though
