Our Elevated Instant Ramen book has been out in that world for about a year! Big thanks to who wrote about this book in the this summer, which landed Chef Josh on the front page of the Sunday cooking section. For those interested, Tan & Josh also a recorded a podcast episode for Seattle Eats/NPR where they chat all things instant ramen, making your instant ramen more exciting, cooking on a budget, etc. Itโ€™s a fun listen!

You are still able to order our book on our website, setsunainoodlebar.com, or pick up a copy in person .

Weโ€™ve included lots of recipe inspiration for turning the humble ramen block into something great - beginning with the basics of how to cook instant ramen properly and stocking your pantry. We cover pickling (including our signature pickled shiitakes and pickled red onions found on the menu at Setsunai), mastering ajitama eggs, two dessert ideas, how to make chili crisp, and more! This little book is pretty extensive and would make a fantastic gift for any food or noodle lover. Itโ€™s petite, too! Stocking stuffers for the fam??

Weโ€™re proud of v1 of this little book and have loved seeing what you all have created from it over the past year! ๐Ÿ“•๐Ÿ™

Link to our site is in our profile. Happy noodling!

Our newest brothy ramen bowl on the .noodles menu is the Spicy Karaage Ramen with Corn! It is just lip-smacking delicious. ๐Ÿคค The broth is so flavorful with a nice level of heat. The fried karaage chicken maintains its crunchiness and all the elements together are sure to satiate! Hot tip from one of our chefs is to ask for a drizzle bbq sauce or our yumyum sauce over the karaage. ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿœ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐ŸŒฝ

And did you know we have an entire Sauce Menu?? Be sure to take a peek at one when youโ€™re looking over our regular menu. Endless flavor possibilities!
