How To Make Saimin – Hawaii’s Ramen Noodle Soup

5

Published -

Chef Sheldon Simeon shares a comfort food from his home state of Hawaii: saimin noodle soup.

Somewhat similar to ramen, Sheldon explains how this dish, found only in Hawaii, is the product of multiple ethnic cuisines.

Sheldon starts with a pressure-cooked broth made from chicken and pork and adds a variety of Japanese ingredients, like kombu (dried kelp), dried shiitake mushrooms, dried shrimp, plus garlic, ginger, carrots, and leeks, for flavor. Next, Sheldon marinates and preps some beef for barbecue skewers that traditionally accompany saimin. Finally, Sheldon boils instant ramen noodles and assembles the saimin with green onions and kamaboko (cured fish cake) for garnish and Chinese hot mustard on the side.

What are the ingredients needed to make saimin?

Saimin is a traditional Hawaiian dish that has been passed down for generations. This soup is a perfect blend of cultures and flavors, combining Japanese ramen, Chinese mein, and Filipino pancit. Saimin has become a must-try dish for any visitor to Hawaii, and it is currently gaining popularity all over the world. However, making saimin can be tricky, but with these easy-to-follow steps, you can create the perfect bowl of Hawaii’s ramen noodle soup.

Ingredients:

– 6 cups of chicken broth

– 1 cup of sliced char siu pork or chicken

– 1 large hard-boiled egg (peeled and sliced in half)

– 1 tablespoon of sesame oil

5. Drain the noodles, then add them to the broth.
