Ramen recipes based on digital cooking

akira
Digital Cooking is a method of creating solid recipes with precision and numerical values of critical variables. It is what Yamato noodle school invested and has been using as the principle cooking method. Every component of ramen dishes, noodles, soups, toppings, even side dishes is made with an unique recipe that allows anyone to reproduce it.
Each ingredient quantity (measured in weight - e.g. grams), cooking time and temperature,  etc. are all specified in detail in each recipe for each building block of a bowl of ramen, for example this bowl of shoyu ramen. The soup consists of chicken light stock: 150g, fish stock: 150g, heated dark soy sauce: 6g, and blended vinegar of 2g. And each of these components has its own detailed recipe, specifying ingredients, quantity, ratios, cooking temperature, and time. Each type of ramen noodles also carries a unique recipe, which specifies ingredients (protein content, ash content, amylose value), hydration, mixing time duration, noodle size, etc. One bowl of particular ramen type has a tree of recipes that are put together to create this bowl of ramen.

Digital Cooking calculates ramen production yields

These recipes are very important and essences of digital cooking in that anyone can reproduce the same dishes over and over, following these recipes. Also they tell us how much of which ingredients are needed to produce X servings of a particular ramen. For example, to produce and serve 300 servings of this shoyu ramen, you would need 45kg of the chicken light stock, 45kg of the fish stock, 1800 grams of the soy sauce motodare, 600 grams of the blended vinegar. These numbers are then translated into the quantities needed for each of the raw materials. 
Because we also know from extensive research and actual production of variety of ramen soups, we know for example, the yield % of certain types of base stocks. So, we can make rough estimation of how much pork backbones we need to make 100kg  of tonkotsu base stocks, for example. All the data we have accumulated over the past 20 years of conducting real ramen school (conducted every month or 12 courses a year, and we have extensive records of what we made in every class) can give us precision in our ramen cooking.
It makes it easier for us to calculate production costs of all the ramen components and cost per serving.
