Ramen

Lewis has recently become slightly obsessed with ramen noodles.  Apparently there are certain brands that are waaaaaaay better than top ramen.  There is a magazine called Lucky Peach that is put out by McSweeney's and  is created by David Chang who is the chef of the Momofuku restaurants in NYC. 
 The first magazine was focused on ramen so Lewis went to the local Asian market and picked up various types of ramen to test out.  Isn't he awesome? 
There is a specific time to boil the noodles and a specific time to boil the egg-- 6 minutes 10 seconds is what they recommend for the egg but Lewis has found that he likes the yolk a little firmer so I think he does more like 6 minutes 30 seconds or 7 minutes.  Then you immerse the egg in ice water and drink it if you are trying to gross out your wife:

 After it has been in the ice for ????? (can't remember)  you peel it and then cut it with a piece of fishing line if you have it. A knife will NOT do the trick.

 Then smile and pose for the camera:

 Taste and love it!!  Lewis happens to think everything is better with an egg on it. He loves Thai food with a fried egg and especially loves them on his burgers. 

I was hoping he would blog about this because he is much more passionate about it than I am, but he has been working way too much lately.  Three nights on call this week and I am about to go up there and demand they give me my husband back and never let him go again.  But alas, there are drunk people to sew back together and gunshot wounds to fix and not enough interns to go around.
