If only those Indonesian chef willing to write their cookbook in the comic format, I might want to read them, lol
Kudos to Hugh Amano and Sarah Becan to bring their vast knowledge about ramen and how to make it entertaining but educating at the same time. Don't blame me when I said that I REALLY crave a bowl of ramen after eating this.
A very yummy, slurpy interpretation of recipe book, indeed :D

Not a lot of great vegetarian options, but a fun and informative book all the same.
Super enjoyable way to learn how to cook various forms of ramen!

This was a fantastic find. I was looking for a graphic novel at the library and saw this guy sitting on the new books shelf. Man, that was an awesome decision! After reading it I definitely will be adding this to our bookshelf at home to spend more time looking over the recipes and varieties on them. If you are a ramen fan then this cookbook is a super fun new addition for you to have on your shelf.
I'm Never Going to Make Ramen
I'm never going to make ramen...at least not to the scale and skill level that Amano and Becan describe in such great detail here. Despite that, I was mesmerized by the process. This graphic cookbook is beautifully drawn and organized in a style reminiscent of Lucy Knisley's Relish. Even non-ramen enthusiasts will enjoy flipping through page after page of techniques and toppings as well as tips for enjoying (read: slurping) ramen to it's fullest.

It’s a graphic novel.
It’s a cookbook.
Sometimes you just see something sitting on the shelf that accidentally ends up at the checkout counter & you take it home & love it & use it to create a yummy bowl of something incredible. I offer no apologies. I have no regrets.
Drool worthy watercolor illustrations, noodle history, plenty of recipes, and insight into the Japanese culture.
Personal note: I used these recipes with blood sugar friendly subs (shiritake noodles, etc) to maintain my health. The others in my home eat them as written. We all agree on the deliciousness regardless of recipe deviation.

I am so thankful to have stumbled upon this book at my library. I am behind the times and have never eaten Ramen before. It has also been a curiosity to me and now thanks to this comic book cookbook, I have a great baseline of understanding. I cannot wait to try some Ramen now!
The aesthetic is everything. I wish all cookbooks were in this format, it makes cooking a lot more fun and appealing. I found the pantry section to be really useful for a person that usually makes basic ramen, I went into an Asian supermarket and bought some essentials that the book suggests. I recently made the pulled chicken ramen and it was delicious, the addition of miso and sake to my broth has elevated my ramen to a new level. I'm super excited to try more recipes from this book. I received this as a birthday gift and I think it would be a unique gift for others as well!
