Customizable Ramen Class with Noodles Made From Scratch

Think ramen is too difficult to make at home? Think again! During this ramen cooking class in Kyoto, you’ll build your bowl of perfect ramen, starting with the noodles. In just 90 minutes you’ll learn how to make your own customized bowl of ramen from scratch, including fresh ramen noodles, and mix your own soup from a variety of broths perfected by the chefs here.

Are you gluten-free in Kyoto? Maybe you’re a plant-based eater? Not to worry, this Customizable Ramen Cooking Class in Tokyo includes options for those with dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free, halal, pescetarian, vegetarian, and vegan!

For those who wish to cook pescetarian, vegetarian, or vegan ramen, tofu will be used instead of chicken, and vegans can omit the egg. There is also an option to make gluten-free ramen noodles out of rice flour, rather than wheat flour (note that the gluten-free noodles take a little longer to make, and the resulting texture of the noodles depends on the weather conditions).

First, you’ll knead, roll, and cut ramen noodles, learning the techniques to making perfectly chewy Japanese ramen noodles. Then, you’ll pan fry some tasty chicken (or tofu), and prepare it as a juicy topping. The soup broth is pre-prepared by our chefs from a recipe that has been used for over 30 years, but you are able to mix and customize your own broth. You’ll have a variety of different sauces and soup bases to choose from, so feel free to go wild, mixing a ramen broth that’s exactly to your liking. Finally, you’ll boil the noodles and arrange the bowl, topping it off with ingredients such as scallions, chicken (or tofu), a beautifully runny egg, and chili flakes (if you like it hot)!
