Nacho Ramen

January 12, 2018 Lola Milholland
Nacho_Ramen.jpg

By Heather Arndt Anderson

Okinawan taco rice is totally a thing, and so is Korean cheese ramen, so why not? It's cold out, and sometimes you need to scratch two snacky comfort food itches at once.

Makes 3 servings

Cheese Broth:
6 ounces chorizo, casing removed
1/2 cup diced onion
1 teaspoon taco seasoning
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
2 cups chicken stock or vegetable broth
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or shredded "Mexican" cheese blend)
2 slices American cheese (optional, but it gives more of that queso consistency)

Ramen Assembly:
1 package (12 ounces) Umi Organic ramen noodles
1 sliced scallion
4 sliced cherry tomatoes
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced
Sprigs of cilantro

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil.

In a large saute pan, brown the chorizo and onions over medium heat. When the chorizo has released its lovely orange grease and the onion is translucent, sprinkle in the taco seasoning and flour and stir everything around until the flour has combined with and soaked up the grease. Reduce the heat to low and stir for a minute, then slowly stir in the milk. Stir stir stir to keep it nice and creamy and get out any lumps, and then stir in the stock. Simmer over low heat for five minutes to thicken the broth.

Tease apart ramen noodles and add to boiling water. Stir and cook in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain well. Portion into three bowls.

Add in the cheese to the broth and stir until fully melted. Ladle on the cheese sauce/broth, stir noodles in the broth to loosen them, then top with the scallions, tomatoes, jalapeño and cilantro. Squirt on extra taco sauce if you like. Enjoy!

I’m excited to share that we applied for the @nasdafoundation Women’s Farm to Food Competition (along with 237 other women owned food businesses in Oregon and Washington. Talk about a strong showing and a huge signal of the entrepreneurial spirit and devotion to supporting local agriculture among women in our community‼️) While we didn’t make the top 4, who will compete for prize $, we were in the next 4 (the top 8) businesses selected, and we think it might be because @shawnlinehan whipped together a sweet short video about who we are and where we’re headed. (Check it out! Just a taste of all my expressions here ☝️😂 Link in bio.) Thank you Shawn—for inspiring me to apply and supporting this wild endeavor. I’m excited to follow along and learn more about the others called out (ahem Hmong sausages made with local pork?! 😍 #lavangfoods in Hillsboro @barnowlbakery #sakaribotanicals @tietonfarmandcreamery @brightideacres @1859_cider_co @thebarreledbee ) and thrilled to be part of a community that is pushing for a different future with deeper roots in the places we live. #localempowerment #investinplace #inthenoodz
Incredible talent, cookbook author and fermenter extraordinaire @lizcrainpdx is on a tear with ramen lunches featuring her own ferments, homemade broths, umi noodz, and perfect ramen eggs. We are 🤤 over here! Plus love that deconstructed ramen to make sure the noodles stay perfectly #koshi 🥰 #inthenoodz #noodleswithfriends
It’s not too late—go load up on Umi noodz for winter soup during the storm 🌬 We have @marholis healing chicken mushroom broth recipe - link in bio! #inthenoodz photos by @shawnlinehan

My dream build-your-own bowl menu going on at @nike Evergreen Campus Paint Cafe right now! Yes, sometimes I want classic Tokyo shoyu, sometimes I want a clean vegan broth, sometimes I want that fatty succulent tonkotsu, and always a few more vegetables 😙 And I love their all reusable dish program—including a handy to-go station. Happy to spend the afternoon there today quizzing people on ramen and regional grain trivia and generally being a 🍜 dork. Is your cafe in Oregon ready for local organic ramen noodles with whole grain barley? Let me know and I can come dweeb out with you and your customers. 🤓 #inthenoodz #useyournoodle #🍜🤓
Bringing in the 👅squad for some initial taste tests comparing our noodles in miso sesame sauce (aka hiyashi chuka) with every hiyashi chuka pack we could find at @uwajimaya Super fun and learned a ton!! Definitely departing from the pack with less sweetness, more miso, more mustard 😳 and still playing around to dial it in but feeling solid! Thanks crew! #inthenoodz #hiyashichuka #misosesamesauce
