this is def a staple in my pantry to be enjoyed anytime ham goes on sale, have a classic ham dinner, the next night is ham and stouffers mac, and night three is when anything that didn’t become sandwiches goes into the pot for the bean stew and it is so freakin good, highly recommend
tbh, i am pretty meat-adverse at this point in my 30s, but as a cook, i def won’t give up the usefulness of a ham hock, hating ham due to the weird, congealed cold cuts that i grew up with, i still love the slow cooked bone, it’s mainly the unrendered fat that skeeves me
lol, people love a good tonkotsu for sure, i still prefer a clear broth like shio or just dashi depending on the place, i just don’t like the flavour as much of the bone broth, noodles should be light unless i’m drunk or its yakisoba ;p
but bean stew is the perfect spot for a heavy broth, still, i don’t like it for the pork flavour as much as the sodium that ham adds, i basically don’t eat pork unless it’s processed lmao
Yeah I love tonkotsu. I think the place near me might also just be like exceptional (reviews seem to confirm). I imagine it’s possible to not do it right.
This one in particular is good for making ham soup with thanksgiving leftovers. They print a recipe on the packaging.

Yeah, gotta cook it for a long time. The best ramen places do bone broth right, and they often cook that shit for day(s)
