Funzionalità Premium
Ramen's origins can be traced back to Chinese noodle dishes. It was introduced to Japan in the late 19th or early 20th century, with the first ramen shops appearing in Yokohama Chinatown. After World War II, ramen gained widespread popularity due to the increased availability of wheat flour and the repatriation of Japanese soldiers from China who were familiar with the dish. Regional variations emerged, solidifying ramen as a distinctly Japanese cuisine.

Funzionalità Premium
Umami-rich pork broth combined with savory pork, salty seaweed, and pungent garlic, creating a complex and deeply satisfying flavor profile.
The dominant flavor comes from the long-simmered pork broth (tonkotsu), which is rich in umami and collagen, providing a creamy and savory base. Pork chashu adds a savory and slightly sweet meaty element. The egg contributes richness and a soft texture. Bean sprouts offer a refreshing crunch, while green onions add a subtle oniony bite. Seaweed (nori) provides a salty, oceanic flavor and aroma. Fried garlic delivers a pungent, aromatic punch that enhances the overall complexity.
Funzionalità Premium
Slurping is Encouraged
Don't be afraid to slurp! It's not considered rude in Japan and is believed to enhance the flavors and cooling effect of the noodles.
Customize Your Order
Many ramen shops allow you to customize your order by specifying noodle firmness, broth richness, and spice level.
Enjoy it Fresh
Ramen is best enjoyed immediately, as the noodles will continue to absorb the broth and become softer over time.
