Ramen
Ramen has been adapted to Japanese style as this noodle soup originally imported from China during the Meiji Period.
This soup dish has been a part of the American college student’s diet for some time, now. Insanely popular all over the world, ramen is to the Japanese what a burger and fries are to your prototypical United States native. Ramen is packaged in a variety of bases and is best known for its long, string-like noodles. Flattering these noodles are such ingredients as miso and fermented soybeans. It’s kind of interesting to note that ramen was created in China, not Japan, but the dish is generally associated with the latter source in modern days.
Ramen is named according to its ingredients and toppings.
The most popular Ramens are:
- Miso Ramen non-transparent and brown, miso based
- Shoyu Ramen transparent and brown, soya sauce based
- Tonkotsu Ramen milky white pork based
- Shio Ramen Transparent and salt based
