How to Make Vegan Tonkotsu Ramen (Recipe)

Follow me on instagram: / wayoframen
Well you guys asked for it so here it is vegan ramen. This bowl obviously does not have any pork bones in it but it has the same creamy mouthfeel of tonkotsu ramen and its jam packed with umami. This was my first time making vegan ramen so I got a lot of help and it turned out great. I actually wouldn't mind eating this regularly, definitely feels healthier than real tonkotsu ramen which makes me feel like I need a nap after.
Ingredients:
Noodles:
500g Bread flour
165g water (chilled)
4g potassium carbonate
1g baked baking soda
5g kosher salt
Dashi
1.5L Water
15g Konbu (Hidaka Konbu) - Voice over is wrong (sorry about that)
1 dried Shiitake mushroom
Tare
200ml Dashi Stock
5g Moshio Konbu Salt (amzn.to/2yomzd1)
100ml Koikuchi Shoyu
100ml Usukuchi Shoyu
25ml Mirin
Dashi Veggie Soup
Dashi Stock
1/4 waxy potato
1/4 onion
green onion
garlic
Vegan Tonkotsu
300ml Oat Milk (Oatly brand recommended)
100ml Dashi Veggie Soup
Toppings:
Spicy Bean sprouts: • Video (original non-vegan recipe)
Roasted Tomatoes
Wood ear mushrooms
green onion
fried shallots

Whoops, I made a mistake in the voice over for the amount of konbu for the dashi. It was supposed to be 15g not 30g. I recorded the voice over super early in the morning and i was making a lot of qty mistakes. I had to rerecord it a few times and thought i caught all of them but I guess I didn't. Sorry about that.

With this you have a solid base lol Go experiment, you know how to make vegan dashi, most tare recipes will be easily adjustable, toppings you can figure out pretty reasily... the biggest issue would be the stock, but I'm pretty sure you can find some good vegan stock recipes. Or just go with your regular roasted veggie stock. Generally aroma oils are also vegetarian in most cases, or can easily be adjusted accordingly. There's no excuse not to experiment.

Yup. Don’t call it tonkotsu if it doesn’t contain any meat produce. That’s not how words work.
I like the idea for the tomato "chashu", I think I'd get a big meaty heirloom variety and slice it thick, salt it and let it sit in the fridge uncovered overnight to dehydrate some, kinda like you'd do a steak. Maybe even marinate it in chashu marinade, that'll dehydrate it too. That way you get more caramelization and flavor. Also I'd do thicker slices for a meatier bite.

Love the video I’m gonna try this. I made a vegan bowl inspired by a lot of the stuff that you made. I went the tantanmen-inspired route with a tahini base for the soup. And very untraditional but I have a lot of Chinese ingredients so I used a little fermented black bean paste for umami and loaded up my dashi with kombu. For my topping I made some roasted portobellos with just msg & soy sauce and holy moly dude try that some time. Vegan or not those came out so delicious. Love this channel man!

I found your channel about a week ago and have been watching various videos. The one question I had, and almost asked you via IG, was “why not boil the noodles in the soup?” This video answered it!
Your tomatoes had sprouting seeds, the seeds should be removed when that happens because they contain some solanin and chaconin, which are bitter and slightly poisonous. Other than that very nice video. Vegan ramen is essentially an exercise in binding flavourful fats to vegetable starches instead of the fat/gelatin/protein emulsion you get from meat and bones.

Nice one, i will try this in a couple of days...I made a mushroom stock as vegan Ramen. I used couple of diffrent mushrooms to make the stock. It turned out really nice and can be done with miso or shoyu tare, witch i always keep in tbe fridge. I like the fact, as you also pointed out, that vegan Ramen is so quick, compared to chicken or pork. Great content, been following since the start 👍
Wow! This looks amazing I’ll definitely try it. I’ve never seen the seeds inside a tomato sprouting before, for a second I was super confused lol
Tho there is always slight criticism in the comments, I really want to say that I love and appreciate the work and effort you put into cooking and your videos. You deserve a lot of success 😊💛

Never thought that I would find myself trying to cook vegan to be honest, and to top it off vegan tonkotsu ramen! My brothers girlfriend is apparently vegan and I was thinking of how to substitute for her when they come over to finally taste my homecooked ramen. Now I know what I will try out and adjust to my taste so she can indulge herself into tonkotsu ramen without the need of tonkotsu. Thanks for bringing so many new recipes, don't know when to try them all out... :D

I recommend trying roasted cabbage as chashu - peel whole cabbage leaves, leave the white part on, coat lightly with olive oil, and sprinkle with some salt and pepper. then roast on high temp until it browns but doesn't burn. leave to rest until it cools completely and cut to long and wide strips at the same direction of the stem (lengthwise, not across it). the umami and chewiness is incredible
Thanks. Look so yummy.
