Even now, I still love a good substantial dish. However, there was a time when I used to make and eat only simple things, without giving it much thought.
When making ramen, I would even make and eat plain ramen with absolutely no toppings, thinking, "I'm eating noodles, so I don't need any toppings."
But as I got older, I started thinking more about the toppings and presentation, like, "A soft-boiled egg is essential, definitely soft-boiled," "I want this kind of char siu," and "It needs a bit more color, so let's add some green onions." As a result, I feel like cooking has become more enjoyable.
I'm not sure why the more you do something, the more you want to try the next step, but the next time I make ramen, I'm thinking of trying to make my own menma.
