Creamy miso vegan ramen

Missed the stream? Watch it on Twitch!

For almost a year now, I’ve been promising to make vegan ramen for one of my friends, and keep failing to deliver. *facepalm* I’m a bad friend.

But I finally found a time that worked for both of us, and got it on the schedule – definitely not cancelling this time!

I just wish I hadn’t waited so long… this amazing vegan miso ramen was just as amazing as normal ramen (the toppings! the garlicky, creamy broth!), without the feeling like shit after because regular ramen’s so heavy and fatty.

A creamy, garlicky miso broth, chewy ramen noodles, flavorful shoyu mushrooms, hearty togarashi sweet potato, and nutty sesame eggplant… all the components made for a delicious, satisfying vegan ramen.

We also decided to sous-vide some eggs (50 min at 62.5°C for the perfect soft-boiled egg!), which made the (now not-so-vegan) ramen even more amazing.

All in all, I highly recommend this recipe to both vegans and carnivores alike – it’s worth the work! I just wish we had made more… we gave half to my friend, and ate up the rest right after the stream!

Ukoy (Filipino shrimp cakes)

Today was a very, very special day on our Twitch stream: Son’s Twitch debut!

While he’s been the voice behind the camera ever since we started, he has never once (purposely) shown his face on stream.

Until today.

Since it was not only his first time on camera for the stream, but also his first time ever cooking from a recipe, we chose something easy for him to make.

He sent me a link to these Filipino shrimp fritters that he saw on Fridgg a few weeks ago, and it looked like a pretty easy recipe, so I decided that would be his first recipe to try.

Even though it took him an hour to get the sweet potato grated… and was more nervous than he’d ever been about anything… he did a great job! He got through the three-hour stream, the shrimp fritters turned out wonderfully, and everyone in chat seemed to love him.

I’m so proud!
