What if the Three Musketeers were journalists in Washington, DC? What if journalists were swashbuckling, swaggering, hard-drinking warriors of truth? Find out in Jerry Stratton’s The Dream of Poor Bazin.
Egg Flower Ramen Soup
Cheap ramen made fancy (and maybe a little nutritious). Should cost about 92 cents.
Servings: 2
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 package chicken-flavored Top Ramen
- 1 Tblsp corn starch
- 1 egg
- 8 oz can baby peas
Steps
- Boil water as directed on package.
- Add ramen and flavor packet.
- Cook for 2 minutes.
- Add corn starch and stir until thick (30 seconds)
- In a separate bowl, break egg and scramble it.
- Pour egg in the middle of the boiling ramen and watch it "flower" (almost as much fun as a lava lamp).
- Add baby peas.
- Cook for 2 more minutes.
You can substitute an 8 ounce can of VegAll for the peas. You can also use sliced up onions and red and green bell peppers.
Or, use tomato flavored roman instead of chicken.
Drink with Sake or Lucky Lager.

- Corn and spinach tofu soup
- This is a very comforting light soup that makes good use of tofu’s texture and flavor.
- Persian eggplant stew
- This recipe convinced me not to skin eggplants. I almost never take the skin off of eggplants now; it adds a tangy flavor to the eggplant that it otherwise loses.
- Quick bean and ground beef chili
- This makes a great chili, a great dip for tortillas, and a great lunch for freezing. And it’s a very fast recipe.
- Balti Beef Stew
- This beefy stew can be made fairly quickly. The flavor is a nice curry-like combo of ginger, chili, cumin, and fennel.
- Salmon Curry Soup
- Very easy to make, this is a bright, beautiful, delectable cream of salmon soup. The yogurt and spices give it an almost lemony taste.
