Feed The Resistance: Ramen For Dinner…Just Like College Days!
Tuesday was Tax Day – so I figured that many of us would be feeling a little light as far as finances go. So, I thought back to my college days, and brought out everybody’s favorite low-rent college dish…Ramen Noodles. I actually tossed out the flavor pack, and added the noodles to a soup that my wife loves to make – Kimchi Tofu Soup! The soup itself is pretty simple – a little ground pork cooked up in a saucepan, and then ginger, garlic, kimchi, tofu and stock is added to that…and then it simmers for about 20 minutes to let all the flavors come together. I added the noodles in while the rest of it was simmering, which gave the noodles plenty of time to cook.
To pair with the soup, Dee brought in a Honey Blonde from Port Huron, which worked perfectly, with the honey mellowing out the strong flavors of the Kimchi a little.
