Well, that certainly escalated quickly.

I was pretty good with this (previously), as I'd had the vegetarian version in Japan before and quite enjoyed it. But this will require a bit of side-eye before I'll get it in my piehole, I think. Still, nothing ventured, nothing (weight) gained.

I'd eat that before I'd eat those sous vide Dorito-crusted egg yolks.

You don't really want to be flash in a pan, like cronuts, or this.

You want to be slow roasted over oak, like whole chicken or beets.

Ugh, no. Looks disgusting, sorry.

70% of the public.

The recipe features another curious addition: horchata. Scherer cooks his noodles in 64 ounces of the traditional beverage, often made with rice, sugar and warm spices.

Someone must have mixed up arroz con leche/ rice pudding and horchata. Horchata is done with chufa (tiger walnuts) or it isn't horchata.

Worth trying at least once then forgetting like cup cakes.

Looks like a portable noodle pudding. I'd try this over the ramen sandwich thing.

I love stuff like this. All these combinations of different foods is great. Let people try them out and the ones that are actually good will at some point end up everywhere.

I would try this once.

Many many moons ago when I was in college, it was very cold outside one Saturday morning. Girlfriend wanted breakfast, but neither of us wanted to brave the cold so we decided we would find stuff in the apartment and make breakfast. Hey we're adults, we can do this! What she ended up with, as close to breakfast as she could come, was spaghetti with strawberry jam for sauce. She ate a large bowl of the stuff. The pasta was just a delivery vehicle for the sugary jam. I on the other hand, just had the last can of beer.

Worth linking to the original Culinary Bro-Down post rather than the Mashable click-bait.

(Although (a) I disagree with most of his manifesto, and (b) I do not think "progeny" means what he thinks it means.)

I'd never heard of horchata without rice; seems like there's a pretty sharp divide, recipe-wise, between Spanish horchata and Latin American horchata.

That must be it. But chufa has a very specific taste, you guys are missing out. Cold beverages with milk and spices sound more like leche merengada, anyway.

There's something about that image that makes me think the mouthfeel of that would be incredibly strange and probably unpleasant.

More ramen burger (recipe).
