oooooh this is so nice!

I believe it’s important to eat well, even when you’re strapped for cash. It’s good for your health and energy! This cookbook is full of delicious and healthy recipes, the ingredients of which are fairly inexpensive.

I ACKNOWLEDGE THIS WOMAN AS A FELLOW WARRIOR AND A FANTASTIC HUMAN BEING. 

Boost so hard. Feeding yourself well is a challenge when you”ve got little income

I HAVE BEEN USING THIS COOKBOOK FOR MONTHS AND IT’S AMAZING 100/10 RECOMMENDING EVERYWHERE

(just to give you an idea, my food budget is 30 euro/week at most [about $38] and I have to maintain a healthy diet due to weird medication side-effects and yeah, basically this book is a lifesaver if you’re broke but need to watch what you’re eating)

Matcha (Green Tea) Banana Ice Cream….RECIPE

WHAT

mmMMMm

Dear god

Step 1: Eat all the ingredients.

As a college student, currently really hungry with nothing to eat, I understand how hard it can be to get food. Sometimes you really just don’t have the money to eat and when you do, you waste it all on fast food instead of stocking up on cheap things because you’re so tired of Ramen Noodes and canned food you could barf. So, I’ve composed a list of recipes and resources that will fit a college kid’s budget and appetite. Don’t go hungry! <3

I’ve never made ice cream before, so I did you guys a favor and found this recipe elsewhere. This ice cream mixes the salty taste of sea salt with the sweet tastes of cream and sugar. Apparently, Kingdom Hearts II director Tetsuya Nomura had this ice cream on a trip to the Tokyo Disneyland Resort and liked it so much he decided to work with Disney to put it in the games. The characters of Kingdom Hearts II can often be seen eating and talking about this delicious salty-sweet dessert. Enjoy it with your best buddy at twilight.

Ingredients:

2 eggs

2 c. milk

1/3 cup sugar

1 t. vanilla

1 c. heavy whipping cream

sea salt to taste

blue food coloring (optional) ice pop molds (optional)

Directions: Separate the eggs into two good sized bowls and beat the egg whites until stiff. Mix the egg yolks and sugar until thick. Slowly bring milk to boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Pour hot milk into yolk/sugar mixture and mix well. Pour milk/yolk/sugar mixture back into pot and heat on medium until thicker to make a custard. Do not boil. Pour custard in with beaten egg whites and mix well. Add sea salt (keeping adding salt until it tastes salty sweet). Put mixture in fridge to cool. Once cool, add cream, vanilla and coloring to mixture. Freeze, following your ice cream maker’s instructions. If you wish, get some ice pop molds. Spray the inside of these with very little PAM spray (or something similar). Then pour the ice cream into the molds right after it comes out of the ice cream maker. Pop the lid on and the stick in and freeze for at least two hours.

I love you

Pork Ramen

Difficulty:  Prep Time: ~ 5 minutes Cook Time: 4 hours Servings: 6 Ingredients: - 5-6 pieces pork neck bones - 1 whole onion, halved - sesame seed oil  - soy sauce to taste - sea salt to taste - maggi to taste - ponzu sauce to taste - 

Optional Ingredients: - 3-4 sprigs long green onion (welsh onion) - soft or hardboiled egg, halved - bean sprouts - nori - just about anything else you think would taste good in ramen! Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 400F (200C) Place pork neck bones in shallow baking dish. Rub each piece with a generous amount of sesame seed oil and sprinkle generously with sea salt. Bake for 1.5 hours..

2. Remove pork neck bones from oven and immediately place 2 cups of water in the pan. scrape up the brown bits and mix everything together. Transfer the pork neck bones and liquid to a deep pot and add 10 additional cups of water. Add the halved onion, and bring everything to a boil, and then reduce heat to simmer. Allow soup to simmer for 2 hours..

3. While the soup is simmering, season the broth with soy sauce, ponzu, maggi seasoning, additional sea salt. This is very much up to personal taste, so just mess with it until it tastes the way you want. Be careful with the salt, though. Remember the liquid will evaporate during simmering and the flavor of the broth will become more intense.

4. When the broth is through simmering, place a strainer over another pot and place a paper towel in the strainer. Strain the broth. Remove the pork neck bones and separate the meat from the bones when cool enough to handle.

5. Prepare your toppings. Chop your green onion, boil your eggs, shred your nori and do whatever other preparations you need to do.

6. Boil your ramen noodles according to the package. Do this step last as most ramen noodles tend to cook VERY quickly. Mine only took 2 minutes until they were tender.

7. Assemble your ramen bowl and enjoy!

This is by no means a traditional ramen broth recipe, i omitted a lot of things i couldn’t find like kombu kelp, dried bonito flake, etc. If you can find these things and you know how to make dashi stock, try that! Otherwise, this works just as well.

Here’s the recipe for the ramen I made!

How to make your ramen 9001x better, courtesy of /ck/

And you can buy roast beef and roast chicken on the internet. I am set for ramen for like a year now.

QUICK EGG IN UR RAMEN TRICK MY FRIEND TAUGHT ME IN HIGH SCHOOL

pour just enough water into your pot to cover your noodles and other ingredients, then get a small cup/fancy measuring 1 cup cup or w/e and measure out another cuppa watta. dump that shit in too.

make ur ramen. just start boiling and dump whatever you’re supposed to put in in the beginning. u know how to make ramen this isn’t ramen for snot nosed sobbing beginners ok

KEY PART: you know how it says on the back of the package to cook for about 4-5 minutes?? we’re cooking for 5 minutes. wait for your ramen to cook for the first three minutes. stare hungrily if you must. but the EXACT MOMENT 3 minutes hit here’s what you do:

this is as close as you’ll get to ramen made in a restaurant…

I’m just glad this isn’t like that one post that was all “HOW TO EAT CHEAP WITH RAMEN STEP ONE ADD A SIRLOIN STEAK AND $20 WORTH OF INGREDIENTS”.

This is how you can tell I’m poor as fuck.

Most dried ramen is deep-fried which is why it’s so unhealthy. If you boil in plain water, strain, and then add to fresh hot water/broth, it’s a lot better for you in general.

Another recipe:

Boil your noodles. Strain. Take a small frying pan and melt two tablespoons of butter (margarine works but butter is better) on low heat. Add the noodles and flavor powder and mix well. 

ANOTHER recipe:

Get a bag of frozen stir-fry veggies from wal-mart. It’s like a buck fifty. Fry those suckers up with some tonkatsu sauce or soy sauce. Boil your ramen, strain. Pile the noodles on a plate, top with your veggies and sauce. Sprinkle a tiny bit of the ramen flavoring on top. Bam, stir fry. The veggies make enough to serve three people (three packages of ramen).

Other things you can add to ramen to make it taste better:

Chopped inarizushi.

A half a can of peas.

A half a can of tunafish to the shrimp kind.

CHIVES MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER.

Oddly enough, boiled potatoes to the beef kind.

Shredded cabbage.

Sliced boiled eggs. 

Matchstick carrots (you can get them from most grocery stores for like a dollar a package; alternately make your own from a cheap-ass bag of whole carrots).

If you’re gluten-free, you can make a gluten-free version of ramen by making and preparing spaghetti squash and using the bullion recipe above (substitute anything with gluten in it for something without, obviously). The “noodles" are smaller but damn is it tasty. Spaghetti squash, incidentally, grows at the least provocation so if you get a spaghetti squash (which are generally kind of expensive), save the seeds and plant them anywhere. Water them once a day. 

Spring-noodle soup, courtesy my husband’s Asian-American ex-girlfriend: Boil your ramen and strain. Heat up a can of soup broth, or simply prepare the ramen bullion. Dip the noodles into the broth forkful by forkful as you eat. You can add other stuff to the noodles, like veggies and meat, as you’re boiling it.

Saute some green onions and minced garlic in a pan in butter or margarine for a few minutes (you can substitute sesame oil for the butter or margarine  as well, if you happen to have it around. The sesame oil gives it a really good flavor). Add a dash of seasoned salt. Boil and strain your ramen noodles. Add to the saute mix, fry for a hot second, and you have awesome garlic noodles. 

Minute rice! You can add a small handful of minute rice to your ramen as it’s cooking for a more carb-heavy soup to get you through the day. If you couple this with veggies and meat it’s almost a round meal.

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RAMEN, but if you make macaroni and cheese (Kraft dinner), add a can of tunafish and a half a can of peas to it to make a more filling, more rounded meal. 

Seriously, if you are broke and need to vary your diet in any way, I am the person to talk to. I grew up on this shit. A lot of is really unhealthy, but at least you won’t die of boredom.
