>>736852283I had some sick ass ramen when I was in texas. Was like the perfect level of spicy.
>>736852439>enjoy sipping warm beer all day
>game has random encounters
>>736852541Vile
>>736852283I don't understand the appeal of noodle soopit's just noodles in some broth
>game plays better in real life
>>736852439I don't eat while I game. Gaming's a two-handed activity, I don't have the time nor do I want to unnecessarily dirty my controller or mouse.
>>736852541Scrumptious
>>736852283just bought some black garlic oil and some tonkotsu broth concentrate. Are there any other ramen hacks to make it tasty or is it just 'add an egg or two' at this point. No chance I'm able to make chashu
>>736852283>Westernized Ramen

>>736852913Thats pho you stupid weeabo shit
i never got the whole squeezed lemon on food thing. acidity is a weird thing to want and it tastes too strong
>>736852283I don't hate the Vietnamese. Their women somehow manage to be very shortstack while holding enough East Asian facial features. Some of my favorite models and "massage ladies" are Vietnamese. And apparently they're the cheap manufacturing center of the world right now, while also being very smart people. And naturally, their food is great. Like Thai, but more herbal. Also they beat the Americans, which is based.Their language is kinda hard to listen to though, and I say this as a maniac who actually likes Mandarin and other Chinese dialects.
>>736852415this is bun bo hue
>>736854309Bun bo hue hue hue
>>736852439No
>>736854174>i never got the whole squeezed lemon on food thing.For me it's basil.This shit is vile and destroys literally ANY dish. Fuck this shit and fuck the guy who came up with adding it to random foods.
>>736852587It's a Spanish thing
>>736854932Regular basil or Thai/holy basil? Either way you're wrong fuck you, basil is the king of the herbs for a reason.
>>736854992Regular basil. Any basil.
>game has two versions and you need both to get the full experience.
I never had pho, what's it like?>>736854932
>>736852907add some cheese. i like adding a generous pinch of grated cheddar to mine.
>>736855043It's a beef consomme but a lot cleaner because Sinosphere cooking has a heavy emphasis on "cooking out the raw/gamey flavours". The toppings are pretty good too, especially if you're willing to pay a little extra. Very hearty, warming fare without being as heavy as the bone broth ramens.The noodles themselves aren't the highlight though. Saying this as a SEAnigger of South Chinese descent, South Chinese noodles (from Canton-Teochew-Hokkien) kinda suck. North China is where all the good noods are at because they actually take the fucking time to develop the gluten. Whether it's yellow noodles or the rice noodles used in pho, they're a textural letdown.
>>736854174If not a squeeze of lemon how about vinegar,it gives certain meals that extra kick
>>736855412NTA, but the problem for me isn't "a dash of acidity". In my time in the states, if a pasta dish called for lemon, so many restaurants will go fucking ham on the lemon until the whole dish is bitter as fuck. So many American vongoles are ruined this way.
>game is just reused assets from other games>it's somehow great
>>736855779In this metaphor, just as the asset reuse allows the devs to focus on better level design and gameplay, so too does reusing stuff for fried rice allow you to focus on frying the rice right and achieving that coveted Wok Hey.
>>736855694Oh my, I get what you mean
>>736854174Yeah it's retarded. I just want to have the taste of the dish I actually ordered and it's completely destroying it. I just eat the lemon after I'm done with the main meal
how do I into east asian noodle soups bros? they look tasty
>>736852541what most skyrim mods feel like
>>736855242Do you have any suggestions of companies that export those different kind of noodles just to try, even if the quality is not the same as directly from a local restaurant? otherwise I'll try to ask around my big Asian market that imports all kinds of good stuff came in contact with good kimchi and there
>>736856686The making or the eating? If making, don't bother. If eating, the less the menu is in English, the better the food will be. Ideally you get your Asian bros to take you there. We know the good joints. Also quite city dependant, London for instance has 0 good ramen.
>>736856686I guess Amazon has a great sorting, be careful because lots of those soups have a good amount of salt and other ingredients
>>736856858>If making, don't bother.Why not?>If eatingImplying any place serves it where I live.>>736856882Packaged food is not "cooking"Salt is not bad for you, either.
>>736852907damn, used to eat those mama for more than two decadesnow I've switched to nissin's demae "ramens"
>>736856924 Salt is not bad either said the league playerYour organs will thank you kindly not to overdo it, everything is poison and nothing is without,the dose makes it lethal :P
>>736856802Well, the problem is that good noodles need to be hand-made, and the Asian markets are usually by Cantonese immigrants so even the fresh noodles there are factory made stuff.No, my recommendation is for restaurants that do La Mian ("pulled noodles"- the origin of the word ramen) and if you can find it, Biang Biang mian. The good news is that at the very least Din Tai Fung (which is everywhere these days) does La Mian and in fact should usually have chefs hand-pulling the noodles onsite. Biang Biang mian originates from Shaanxi so restaurants specializing in Xi'an fare should pack em.
>>736856924>Why not?Making the noodles are a pain in the ass, making the broths are a pain in the ass, making the toppings are a pain in the ass. That, and Asian hyperautism means the eateries have specced so hard into making noodles that your homemade efforts will definitely pale in comparison to the industry standard. You're welcome to try though!In terms of East Asian noodles, bear in mind that there are Fried noodles, Soup noodles and then also what I call "Dry Tossed" noodles (tossed in sauce, much like pastas), so keep that in mind as you progress through the space.
>>736852338If I post a thread about a certain video game right now, it will be deleted and I will be banned faster than anything else that gets posted on the board, including child pornography, no matter what time of day it is.I'd say it's a joke but jokes are supposed to be funny and make you laugh.
>>736857758I heard they took care of that schizo who abused a certain proxy,but anyway back to the topic certain games do love to represent their local food would be an pretty topic I think shenmue,monster hunter,the whole Yakuza franchise, I think sleeping dogs too ?! Had lots of Asian food on display :^)
>>736858068I love how Vanillaware draws food.
>game gets released in a half-finished state
>>736857758Them's Fighting Herds?
>>736858607Anon DELETE THIS PICTURE, Trump is about to invade this platter and seize the chef of that restaurant, it simply has too much OIL !
>>736857491I wouldn't make the noodles, probably, making all that pasta sounds too annoying to bother. Broth isn't that bad and you get a bunch from just cooking one batch. Obviously it will be worse than professionals, but that's just what you expect when cooking. I've just always liked soups and east asian ones tend to have flavours I like.Are fried noodles just frying them or like, frying them and then adding them to a soup? I assume the former.
>>736852283>letting your noodles turn soggy by letting it sitwhat an idiot
>>736852283Cheap Pho > cheap RamenExpensive Ramen > expensive Pho
>>736858607The dough was clearly still too raw, how did anyone enjoy this.
>>736855412That looks good. Is there a simple version of it? I'm thinking of just the sausage + "instant" lentils, but I don't know what to replace the "pasta" with.
>>736858840Right, but whole noodle soup branches are defined by their toppings. What's a good ramen without chashu? Can Bak Chor Mee (minced pork noodles) still be BCM without the Bak Chor (minced pork)? And a lot of the toppings are a lot of work- to the point where some of them are straight up main course dishes of their own. In regard to noodle soup dishes, you gotta pick your battles, which I suppose you clearly seem to be ready to do.Also regarding definitions- sorry, forgot you were referring specifically to noodle soups. Fried noodles and dry tossed are separate categories altogether.
>>736854932You're such a child. Its in a ton of shit and i bet you don't even notice.
>>736859120Yeah I don't know much about the specifics of it as you can tell, I'll have to find out it's too much work to bother on my own I suppose.>Fried noodles and dry tossed are separate categories altogether.Thought so, but it's not like frying something before boiling it would be too crazy of an idea so I wanted to make sure I didn't misunderstand anything.
>>736852283ZAMN!!I’m so Horngry
>>736855042Shepherd pie is so much better it's unreal
>>736854174What, not even on fish? You do it when you want something to taste like lemon. Lemon goes well with a lot of things.
>>736859268>frying something before boiling itActually where I'm from, Singapore, we have a few spins on this idea. The most famous of which is our fried prawn noodles, where we fry some noodles, then take a prawn broth (usually used in prawn noodles soup) and braise the fried noodles in that soup until the soup thickens and becomes a gravy. Real good stuff, pain in the ass to make (I tried).

>>736857758Goyma Troonsune lost and was raped
>game is a national treasure
>>736859091No need to replace the pasta you can simply make it yourself I think the two linkw should have a recipe how to make them if not YouTube has good videos too how to make Spätzle/Spaetzle ( the noodles)
>>736859426Sounds interesting, kind of like a risotto. Probably very tasty.
>>736854932Really? You're the first person I've seen that has said they've hated basil. It's definitely one of the better ones.Nothing tops rosemary, though. I take a bunch of dried rosemary, add in a few other basic spices (salt, butcher pepper, paprika, chili powder), then blend it all up in a pestle and mortar. I'll use the fresh stuff whenever I cook lamb. Improves every dish that it's in.
>>736859458Yep, you did it, you got rid of pesky on topic video game discussion in favor of off topic, low quality /b/ shit like this.You are truly the savior /v/ - Random/Worksafe deserves!
>>736859659What the fuck is your problem?
>>736859659Oh look the nortubel schizo also found his way into the thread, why are you like this, none of the new autistics are funns that infested /v/
>>736859659>>736859703>>736859789QRD?
>>736859658Gachaslop isn't video games and therefore offtopic though
>>736859645Do you grind dry spices?
>>736852283Viet here, what the fuck is this broth? It should never be this dark. I wasn't convinced this is meant to be pho at first.>vidya gaemsuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I guess Paradox grand strategy games? Especially if you count DLCs as "additional" content (desu they're pretty much mandatory for a proper experience), though most mods do provide really nice QoL changes
>>736859836>Gachaslop isn't video gamesNot for you to decideShow me where in the /v/ rules it specifically says this.
>>736852439>tsingtaoSo what percentage of that is actual piss?
>>736859961>gachatranny can't readmany such cases
>>736859996Back up your claim. Show me where in the /v/ rules it specifically says this.
>>736859836>Gachaslop isn't video gamesNot a fan of gacha, but they are count as video games.
>>736859927A lot of hoisin sauce
>>736852907Miso paste is good to have, I add it to soups, stir fries (and not even necessarily to Asian dishes only). Fish sauce is a nice addition to broths and stir fries too, despite the foul smell at first it's a beautiful depth. Top the final dish with spring onion and fresh coriander, unless you're one of those genetic mutants that taste soap in coriander/cilantro.The earlier you add chilli in, the spicier it will be. I fry mine together with the first thing that goes in, but if you can't take the heat, add it towards the end.If you ever roast a whole chicken, keep the bones for home made stock.
>>736860203>wikipediaMight as well ask grok and post a screenshot here like all the other jeets
>>736860321based. I didn't think to get some miso paste. I've been looking for a good garlic pork belly recipe like korean BBQs have and it seems to use that
>>736859836I used to think gacha games were real games until my sister showed me what a battle in Granblue Fantasy looks likeliterally no player engagement necessary, why the fuck would you even bother?
>>736860358>i-it d-doesn't c-c-count!lol, predictable
>>736860358Look, I understand that you hate gacha, but many of them fit the category of video game and thus allowed on /v/Gacha generals, however, is a different matter.
>>736860702And until 'general' starts meaning 'recurring, rolling thread' consistently and and impartially, instead of frequently meaning 'thread about game a mod doesn't like', it won't be abided by.Right now there are multiple threads up that are 'generals' according to the rules and the word of mods, but not only does nothing happen to them, reporting them doesn't work, and yet if you make a thread about the forbidden game it is instantly deleted in minutes to seconds at all times of day, which means these other general threads are being deliberately ignored and threads about the forbidden game singled out.
>>736854174KIITYYYYY
>>736859503what's that
>>736854052perhaps he is referring to french colonization.
>>736861001I do enjoy the STS2 threads, but yeah, if I'm being objective, then it's long past overdue for it to be moved to /vg/. There's an argument to be made for allowing games to have general-like threads on /v/ while they're brand new, but it's been out for a month and a half now and the threads have grown largely stale.

/v/ - CookingGenuinely good thread btw
>>736860252
>>736852907I ate Shin Ramen two days ago.>a spoonful of mayo, onions sauce and crushed red pepper for the broth>8 minutes boiled egg>chopped green onionsPretty damn good, but I should have used less water for the broth and added some chicken. I also have a bowl of Shin Black which is supposedly spicier.
>>736852587I prefer warm beer because it's easier to drink fast in big amounts than coldt: alcoholic
>>736863802Why not drink heavy spirits at that point? Beer is one of the shittiest ways to "get drunk fast". Too much bloat.
>>736863985nta, but getting drunk fast is a teenager/alcoholic thingif you just want a nice drink while enjoying some vidya, an ice cold beer is a great beverage
