BLADE RUNNER Ramen Celebrates the 35th Anniversary of the Sci-fi Classic

Though we’re now only two years away from the post-apocalyptic 2019 that Ridley Scott created in the epic film Blade Runner, we approach the movie’s 35th anniversary still faced with the same eternal question: Human or replicant? While you brave the debate in preparation for Blade Runner 2049, settle in for a dish of Blade Runner-inspired noodles.

This noodle bowl is reminiscent of the offerings of the roadside joint where we’re first introduced to Rick Deckard, the White Dragon Noodle Bar. However, inside you’ll find one very specific additional ingredient: an edible origami unicorn. Do you dream of ramen? We know you do.

Use the cookie cutter to cut out unicorn shapes from the egg roll wrappers. Place on the prepped baking sheets and use a clean pastry brush to brush on the melted butter. Bake for 5-7 minutes until browned. Let cool on a wire rack.

In a pot, bring 2 quarts of water to boil. Add the ramen noodles and cook for 1-½ minutes. Drain and place into a serving bowl.

In a small bowl mix together the dashi and the soy sauce. Pour over the noodles.
