Salut ! Thanks for all the support ! Here are a few comments after reading yours : - Nope. Black Garlic Oil has nothing to do with Black Garlic. ( the fermented stuff) - Fridge-life : Not sure, that's why I didn't give any stupid advice on this. For the record, I easily keep those refrigerated for a month, but that's just me. - Is the Garlic Oil safe to keep in the fridge ? I'd say yes, as we burned the s* out of it, but again it's personal. Keep in mind anyway that it's probably A LOT safer than those raw-garlic-infused-olive-oil, lI keep finding everywhere online. ( MINUS the Carcinogenic thing of course. sigh. bbq anyone ?) - Eye-bags ? me ? I don't know what you're talking about ?? ( Was born like this, sleeping has no impact. DAMN IT! ) - If you're into Ramen, there's more coming ! - If you're not into Ramen that much, why don't you use what you just saw ie : How To Flavor Oil ? Isn't it what I keep repeating on this channel ? The big picture. I am sure you those oils can be pretty useful in so many other dishes than just ramen bowls...

Hey Alex! discovered you recently :) I Suggest you a burnt leek oil with vanilla. burn the leek in the oven 200°C without oil until almost completely black, let's say 80%, add everything in a pan with oil and a vanilla bean deseeded and bring to 80°C for 10 min and blend it,but keep the vanilla bean whole inside and let it rest for few hours. Keep up the good work :) Joe

I like how your instant ramen noodle series has slowly become how to make real authentic ramen. It mirrors my own ramen addiction arc.

ALEX! Please make a video about food for backpackers with 2 options 1. You prepare it at home and then carry it into woods/mountains 2. You take all ingredients with you and completely prepare it while backpacking Conditions: You can heat it only on fire/gas stove. Light weight/high calories. Prepared in only one container. Ingredients must survive at least 12h without fridge.

You forgot to mention that some flavours dissolve in water and some in fats. You can't dissolve salt in oil for instance, and getting water to be spicy from chili will be impossible since capsaicin only dissolves in fats. So if you want all of the flavours to dissolve and come forward you'll need fats and liquids.

That is what true artists do. They become scientists.

this series is one of my absolute favorites on youtube, i want all the videos... but i also never want it to end

a combo of sesame, shrimp and sichuan will be heavenly with a beef broth.

Yessss scallion oilll. You should try a noodle called 葱油面 which is basically scallion oil noodles. Its super duper simple just get a bunch of scallion, neutral oil, soy sauce, a little sugar and noodles. It gas a deep savory flavor with the soy sauce and the scallion brings out a beautiful rich aroma while eat the noodles.

Well, I'm really happy about this video. Making a whole lot of oil, and then just keeping it there for use. I did most of the ramen series up to video number 4. So I got the soba made and dried. Got the seasoning, and now I'm actually sad, because I don't know what to do with my life. It may be simple, but it is my favorite series. If it's finished, I have only one thing to say: Thank you Alex. It helped me a lot to cope with some health problems.

For the shrimp oil do not use fresh shrimp. Use dry shrimp, especially the smaller baby variety. The flavor is much more powerful

Man the cuts in this episodes are really superb^^. Like the slurp-sound before the cut and the cut while you cooked the garlic oil. Good job ! :D

Great stuff Alex! Very informative as usual.

Love these series. Love how you give vegan options as well!

Thank you so much for posting this, your voice is so calming. I broke my leg and you talked me through the shock with one of my favorite foods

This is my favourite series, I adore ramen and I love how much YOU love ramen so Alex thank you for this new addiction of mine 😂😍

Thank you Alex, I could kiss you for breaking ramen into small blocks of noodle soup poetry!!

Absolutely stunnning video Alex! Black garlic is actually a staple in most ramen dishes, so no wonder you liked that the most!

Interesting information and engaging delivery. Thank you

Alex, I just found the channel and powered through this series and decided to hammer it out. Great noodle recipe, black garlic oil was killer, and I just ad-libbed the tare as the specialty ingredients are not available locally. Took all day but wow what a great experience! Thanks for putting this together!

Oh man I love this series and like you can't get enough ramen!!!

I've been trying to master stocks for quite a while and I seriously wanna slap myself for always using water instead of oil. My dude, you were my missing piece. Thank you!

I love the reactions and the accent, it bring so much life into these informational videos. Most of these types of videos are so lifeless I can’t watch it, but this I can binge watch.

You're very good at what you do.

We were watching this vid in the kitchen while eating, and immediately jumped up to make the sichuan chili oil and black garlic oil. Sichuan oil is already in the fridge, and the garlic is currently infusing my house. 😍

I love this! Thanks so much for these videos!

This might be the must video I love in your channel

This is good stuff! And these oils are not only for Ramen, nay, they can be used in WoK. Probably could drizzle some on a burger, or even a really nice beef sandwhich. I need to make this! Good stuff Alex, good stuff!

I am so digging this raman addiction series. I love raman in any and all forms so this is really buttering my eggroll.

You rock so hard. Love it love it love it! Your videos deserve so much more attention

I love this series. I’m definitely going to try to make a few of these oils.

Very good. I actually love burnt garlic!!!

I usually just pour a few spoons of the oil from a jar of sun dried tomatoes in my ramen. It's a great taste if you don't have time to make any of these.

Love you Alex! Your videos are the best. Keep up the good work!

Great series! Thank you for the interesting and inspiring content!

Hey Alex, a few ideas for videos you could do aimed at people still learning to cook: What you can do with a lot of the food you would otherwise discard and throw out, for example in this video you showed yourself reusing chicken skin and fat and shrimp shells. Other things is how to make your own chili spices using seeds from various pepers which you often deseed when using chopped chili peppers... I guess it's sort of like how you also did the whole video drying your own spices. If you've already done videos like this please do let me know! Edit: I'm really loving this ramen series, you should totally considering doing it for multiple other dishes once you finish this series.

So much fun and so much info!!! Love it

I keep coming back to this video along with Way of Ramen's videos to learn as I make tares and oils on my own and this never ever gets boring

Every time I think it’s done, but the series continues to push on

i just casually nod my head when you try and explain flavors like i know what your talking about when i really dont

im so glad that i found your chanel. my fav chanel

I love how scientific and passionate these videos are. You’re truly a pleasure to watch.

To tidy up this great series at the end you should try nd make packaging for your perfect instant ramen.

Wow! You are a Total Ramen Addict! Lucky for us! This subject has always been a mystery to me. It just makes sense, if you knew how, making these flavor enhancing oils at home with better quality base oils & ingredients, you would have a even better Ramen experience. Thank you Alex! I think I will try this at home, using your recipes, but combining the Black Garlic, Anchovy, Shrimp & Sesame in a Grape Seed Oil base? The Flavors might get too muddled, but I have learned from you, there is nothing wrong with experimentation to create the perfect personal taste.

Best episode so far in this series !!!!

i'm loving the mad scientist look !

I'm learned a biology and chemistry in exUSSR school, and we call all lipids as "fats". All vegan fats is liquid oils (but one exception - coconut/palm oil - its solid) and all animal fats are solid, except fish fat, is liquid. P.S. People who learn some chemistry know that any liquid substance is literally a solvent! And fats good container and solvent for vitamins А, D, E and К, so adding oils to ramen not only do it tastier, but even more useful for us health!

Your passion is contageous! I got a chefs knife for Christmas because of your videos!

Love love love this serieeeees

In case anyone has been warned before about botulism in garlic-infused oils, it looks like most FDA guidance says botulinum bacteria are killed in heated oils.

That was amazing :) I'm making black garlic oil first.

Black sesame oil is great too, simple too but has an amazing fragrance to it. My favourite vegetable oil to use.

Great video ... Thank you, Alex

I so love this series

I was once addicted to ramen! I quit! And now i feel i might relapse with every sip!

Your ramen series is strangely inspirational.

This was amazing. Thank you!
