Tonkotsu ramen is by far the most popular style of ramen in the US. Unfortunately for me, it's also my weakest style, mostly because I don't make it very often. This is a method of making a real tonkotsu ramen using an instant pot or pressure cooker. It cuts about 6 hours of cook time as long as you do your bone prep a day in advanced. Spicy tonkotsu is a pretty American way of eating tonkotsu ramen, but its popular for a reason, it's pretty delicious. The ra-yu I made needs some tweaking but it was still a tasty bowl. If you try this at home, be sure to adjust the thickness of your soup with water after you strain. you can always blend it again to re-establish the emulsion.
