Mu Ramen

[I no longer try to make time for proper reviews. Just bullets now.]

• Unnecessarily loud
• Bright with voluminous incandescent light bulbs that heat up the restaurant
• Spicy Miso Ramen - Everything about the dish was excellent. Addition of corn was great.

Bottom line: Mu Ramen is nice ramen if you happen to be at PS 1. This is not worth traveling for.

corn essence

It's time. CORN! Don't make this unless you have use for the kernels. This is a corn 'broth' that makes anything and everything taste good. I would add it to anything that calls for broth. I would even think of adding 1 part essence (cold), 1 part tonic, 1 part gin. Delicious.

Bring 1 quart of water to a boil in a shallow pan.
Add 6 corn cobs.
Add bottoms of cilantro or basil.
Simmer for 30 minutes.
Strain.
Put liquid in a clean pan and reduce by 50%.

Refrigerate and use within 3 days.
