Are there any 1.7mm and 3mm flat noodle cutters?

So far, I've been using an Ono-Shiki, which comes with cutter variants of 1.3 mm, 2.2 mm, and 2.7 mm. However, I'm finding that my preference leans toward slightly thicker noodlesβ€”like 1.7 mm for standard ramen and 3 mm for tsukemen. So far, I haven't been able to find any cutters in these sizes. Has anyone come across a machine that offers them?

Making my first ramen broth, does it matter when miso & hondashi are added?

So I ran into a few contradictions when reading various receipies and wanted to hear opinions:

β€’When looking at a popular miso broth, it says to combine miso paste at the start when adding the oil, garlic, ground pork and such when sautΓ©ing.

β€’while I also read that you want to add miso paste LAST because it is very sensitive and high temps will destroy the flavor entirely? So add it in after as the last step when simmering the broth

Which is it?

β€’I also have Hondashi powder, I want to try using it but am not quite sure how. The miso paste I’m using will be half & half white and red miso (without dashi)

So, if I’m using 12 cups of broth, how much would you recommend adding?

Noodle hydration and shape thickness

Is shape thickness more important to al dente-ness than dough hydration?

I've made kansui ramen noodles with as little as 32% hydration. It would make sense for them to be drier and firmer, as they have to withstand hot broth over the course of a meal (even if the Japanese are renowned for eating fast). I cook these thin noodles for 2 minutes, yet they don't have much of a bite to them.

Yesterday I made bigoli at 57% hydration. I cooked a batch for 10 minutes, and they were still so al dente I could have gone for 12. Granted, the pasta wasn't hydrated with water, but with whole eggs, so some fat/water conversion is in order. Either way, unlike my ramen noodles (which are so stiff they have to be kneaded by stomping on a plastic bag), this bigoli dough was supple and nowhere near breaking my pasta machine.

Question for the ramen people

Question for the ramen people

Hello! I’m new here and I have a question for this subreddit. I bought this pot a long while ago and used it for the first time in a while recently. I then proceeded to put it into the dishwasher without thinking. I check on Amazon where I bought it and it says to hand wash it as the dishwasher may damage it.
My question is, is this still safe to use? And can it be fixed if not?

Salmon Noodle in Sangenjaya β€” a French-inspired take on ramen

Salmon Noodle in Sangenjaya β€” a French-inspired take on ramen

Went to Salmon Noodle in Sangenjaya for a French-style ramen experience. Delicate chashu, salmon, caviar, and burdock root, all topped with an airy espuma foam instead of a traditional broth surface. Not something I go for every day, but every once in a while I crave this kind of refined, experimental bowl.
