Wednesday, 12 May 2021 ~ Today's lunch is Chicken Paitan Ramen (original and spicy flavors) with Sous Vide chicken breast, by our in-house chef Sherilyn.
This is one tedious meal with many steps. She started off with boiling the chicken soup with dashi, kombu, chicken feet and chicken breast for hours yesterday. The ramen eggs were also prepped yesterday and marinated overnight in the fridge. The chicken breast + garlic + onions were blended in the TMX6 and then sieved and added back into the pot of broth.
Multiple steps are involved to bring out a milky white soup that's umami (hence the name Paitan/white soup in Mandarin).
Every step involved is homemade -- from the broth to the ramen shoyu tare, ramen eggs, Sous Vide chicken breast, chili oil and even the ramen noodles. The noodles dough was prepped from scratch and churned out using a noodle maker.
This is an inexpensive meal with chicken breast and feet, eggs and flour for the ramen noodles but chef Sherilyn makes it taste like one from a Michelin star restaurant 😋
