Hayao’s Wonton Ramen | Cooking with Gucci Osteria Chef Karime López & FESCH.TV:

The staff meal is a ritual in the Gucci Osteria, a time to come together, eat and relax before the flurry of service in a Michelin starred restaurant begins. At Gucci Osteria in Florence, chef de cuisine Karime Lopez and her international team take turns in cooking the staff meal, where someone often prepares a traditional dish from their home town, or a comfort food of the season, to be shared in the Osteria’s dining room full of antique mirrors. Hayao’s Wonton Ramen are a team favorite, created by chef de partie Hayao Watanabe. The warming dish is served where he is from, Sakata in Northern Japan; it’s a flavor-packed take on traditional ramen, garnished with handmade shrimp dumplings. Hayao and Karime will show you how to make the recipe using the ingredients below.
