How to make Tonkotsu and other thick varieties of ramen base stock cheaper and better

Many ramen restaurants struggle with production of stock for thick (i.e. concentrated or so called “Paitan”) varieties of soup.

These types of base stock are notoriously time consuming and labor-intensive. But because they are actually used for the most sought for and popular types of ramen soup, many ramen shop owners go through all the trouble and hassle to make and serve them.

But if you are related to this line of business you may have asked yourself at least once, “isn’t there a better and more efficient way to make them?”.

This is because usually the production of such base stock varieties usually requires putting in significant amounts of time, labor, and energy/money.

At Yamato, we have conducted professional ramen training courses over the past 20 years. Through experiencing first-hand how labor-intensive and time-consuming ramen soup production is during the classes conducted every month, we’ve developed ways to streamline and reduce the resources one needs to put into such production.

techniques to make paitan ramen soup

When making thick varieties of ramen soup base stock there are certain things that we can and cannot control to achieve a particular result in terms of product’s overall quality and its characteristics.

What we cannot control is, for example, the type of ingredients necessary for this or that variety of stock (it may sound too obvious but you can’t make pork stock from chicken), or our target density (if your customers are hooked on soup made from density 8 stock, we would need to aim for that number), or the very way we cook our stock (e.g. you really-really need to skim the scums coming out of it!).

However, the relative success of our ramen business will to a large degree depend on how well we address the variables that are under our control: from water properties and its amount, to treatment of ingredients and the sequence of cooking them, to cooking time and temperature, to what we do with the stock once it has been cooked.   

On September 8, 2022, join Yamato for a free online class dedicated to tips and advice on how to minimize the cost and maximize the quality of thick base stock production in food business settings.
