“Ramen, in all its many variations, starts out simple. A simple stock, a simple tare, and some simple noodles . . . Amy Kimoto-Kahn lays the groundwork in the first few pages of her debut cookbook, then gives the home ramen chef enough ideas to satisfy their slurp cravings for years to come.” —Brian MacDuckston, Ramen Blogger (ramenadventures.com)
