Broth of the carcasses of one deep fried, one traditional roast turkey, simmered since Friday morning. Cooked until the bones crumble. Today added aromatics and other ramen standards (soy, sake, mirin), peppers, and a glug of sriracha.
A warming layer of leftover dark meat is hiding under the noodles.
Isn’t Tonkatsu a fried pork cutlet?
Yes; the word OP was probably thinking of is tonkotsu – which means pork bone. They’ve imitated the style of tonkotsu ramen using turkey carcasses instead of pork bones.
Looks tasty OP!
It does indeed look very tasty, I love a rich broth.
Thanks, I didn’t realize my typo! Fixed in the title.
And yeah, one of my better ramen attempts.
Maybe with turkey bones you could call it chōkotsu instead! (meaning bird bones–the ton part means pork/pig)
Indeed I shall! Thanks, I’m not well-versed in Japanese.
Apparently so. TIL. This was heavy and umami-forward so it seemed most like that kind of ramen.
I think it seems more like a paitan style. Looks good regardless.
