why is japanese cuisine so hilariously bad?
the main staple dish of nipponland is sushi which is literally just fish on rice
their curry is just watered soup
ramen is just inferior version of authentic Chinese noodles
even instant noodles is taiwanese (Chinese) and not from japan

why could the nips not make a satisfactory cuisine?

I’m a ramen fanatic who spends most of the year living/working in Japan and often takes 1-2-day trips to try ramen joints that sound interesting.
But I don’t think a good general tread has any need of tripfaggotry.

It's a temp tripcode anyway, I'm running that trip generator for RAMEN anyway.

Don't worry, I won't shit up the thread. I actually wanna see how well this goes.

Also, why'd you decide to move to Japan? Do you know JP and how long did it really take?

This. My university did a thing where we had students from every country that attended our school cook something from their country. Everything was absolutely fantastic until I got to Japan and it was fucking dogshit. I'm convinced the part of their brain that discerns taste and texture is just underdeveloped relative to every other race.

There were like 7 different dishes there by different people. They all sucked ass. Plus every other Japanese meal I've ever had at any restaurant was shit.

Instant ramen is TERRIBLE for your health. Filled with preservatives and MSG. I knew one kid who ate ramen almost everyday and got stomach cancer at 24. Terrible.

How do you cold smoke? That sounds like an oxymoron

[Anonymous No.17633403]

>>17633347
Cold smoking is smoking with lowest heat possible. I myself am using a smoke silo for this. The inside temp will pretty much hover right around what the outside tempature is, which is 51 degrees Fahrenheit at the moment.

>Also, why'd you decide to move to Japan?
Because I’m an unashamed weeb. However, I only ever visited. Never planned on spending time there as a non-tourist until my employer “assigned” me to Japan.
A few years of that and I found myself owning a house in Osaka, which also has a wife in it.

Its neat, you can add smoke flavor to any thing. I'll smoke cold smoke steak for like 30 or 40 mins before throwing it on a grill. I just grilled these 40 seconds per side so the inside is still pink as hell, gonna slice it and add it to the ramen soon towards the end.

Two onions, smoked pulled pork I smoked, cold smoked steak, shin black ramen, peas and carrots. In for a good meal coming up. Now time to crack open a beer before cutting some onions to saute.

>some college students (who are typically broke anyway) tried to make some dishes that require ingredients extremely difficult to find and likely had to make substitutions with things that aren’t viable for it
>omg it wasn’t good!
Try living somewhere where you can’t find what you’d consider to be everyday ingredients.
I tried to make tacos in Japan once.
Not any sort of “nice” tacos. I’m talking poorfag-tier american “taco-Tuesday” tacos. And it was “easy mode” as I had packed a few things of taco seasoning when I had gone back to the US for a bit. I just wanted to grab what was needed to basically make a “taco supreme”.
I had to go to 3 grocery stores to find a couple tiny packs of ground beef that were 1lb combined, and I paid a ton for.
Because “ground beef” in Japan is nearly always a beef/pork mix.
I also spent a ton on a tiny bag of preshredded lettuce. I was surprised to even find it. Cabbage is all over the place. Have fun looking for lettuce.
The cheese was easy, as the only choice is “Japanese shredded cheese”. Which is a mix of shredded cheddar and mozzarella.
Tomatoes weren’t a problem.
Taco shells and tortillas? Fucking lol. Not at any normal Japanese store, and about $8 at an import store for some shitty “old El Paso” shells brought in from Australia. Another $8 for some flour tortillas.
Sour cream? Doesn’t fucking exist. Closest sub was some plain Greek yogurt which was also crazy expensive.
In the end I spent over $50 to make poorfag tacos that would cost $10 at most to make otherwise, and they weren’t nearly as good because stale shells and substitute “sour cream”.
tl;dr - you’re a fucking retard to base an opinion on what some foreign students scraped together incorrect ingredients to make.

I just throw in fish stock cube miso and soy sauce, cook the noodles with the broth and add butter and corn and a dash of beer and an egg with a swirl of feeling fancy. Have also been thinking of taking that ragusea video about fake demi glace to make a tonkotsu, pork is pork after all.

I don't know where you get your spaghetti but even dried pasta only takes like 6 minutes tops, especially for a soup can probably be done in shorter. Fresh spaghetti is cooked in as little as 2 minutes.
