Ramen Lovers Club

We think they (whoever they are) got the saying wrong. An apple a day doesn’t keep the doctor away, but a bowl of ramen sure will. Especially if it’s a cold Lacey day.  When life gets tough, and temperatures get cold, ramen noodles nourish and revive.

Your Bon Appetit culinary team has partnered with author, Amy Kimoto-Kahn, chef, graduate of Miyajima Ramen School in Osaka, author of Simply Ramen, a Complete Course in Preparing Ramen Meals at Home, and The Asian Hot Pot Cookbook, Family Friendly One Pot Meals.  

Amy is also a yonsei, a fourth–generation Japanese American, wife and mom of three who lives in Boulder, Colorado. She is a student of her families’ long history of cooking and continues to share her favorite recipes on her blog, easypeasyjapanesey. Her first book, Simply Ramen, is a compilation of 70 traditional and non-traditional ramen recipes for the noodle lover, is one of the best-selling cookbooks on ramen for beginners.  In her new book, The Asian Hot Pot Cookbook, you’ll find 32 Hot Pot recipes, 24 recipes for basic broths, sauces and rice, 8 side-dish recipes and 5 mouthwatering desserts, providing everything you need for fun and healthy meals that can be enjoyed by the whole family!

She’ll be at the Saint Gertrude’s Cafe for a station takeover, personalizing her new cookbook, The Asian Hot Pot Cookbook, Family Friendly One Pot Meals, and talking about all things good to eat in a bowl.  Please join us in welcoming Amy to the SMU community on Monday (3/20) and warm yourselves with a delicious bowl of authentic ramen all week.
