I don't have a microwave.

[Espy]

A....kettle?

[Kaderin Triste]

If by kettle you mean a small pan that fits ramen perfectly then yes.
I mean, I also have a kettle, but I imagine doing hot water over the ramen would take a little longer to cook than boiling it in a pan.

[Espy]

Oh that's a good point. But it's less...cooking-like.

[Kaderin Triste]

I want to actually get one of the ramen bowl things with a lid (like I saw in Ponyo) to use for making ramen, honestly.

[Espy]

I've never watched Ponyo :|

[mdom]

oooh watch when you get the chance!!
also what is black noodles

[Espy]

...Probably food dye?

......or squid ink, if you want to get exotic (and expensive)...

[mdom]

ahhh squid ink... sounds so gourmet and fancy!

[Espy]

Never actually tried it. 85C has some bread that's colored with the stuff, but it squicks me out a bit.

Awww... basically something like this (only without the cutesy design preferably)

[tsukiko]

black spaghetti is done with squid ink. it only has a slightly fishy smell to it, but doesn't taste any different than normal pasta.

ponyo is a cute movie. just wish they had actual special features on the blu ray =/

Hmmm I'm interested in black spaghetti now.

There's also noodles made with black rice. They have a lovely, nutty flavor, and turn dark purple when cooked :3

[Kaderin Triste]

Ooh! I wanna try the black rice noodles!

[mdom]

Dark purple, what a pretty color!!
