Applications

How to Use Kikkoman® Ramen Soup Base – Shoyu

Making a steaming bowl of restaurant-style ramen is as easy as boil, mix, and enjoy!

  1. Prep Your Noodles: Boil your favorite ramen noodles until they reach your preferred firmness.
  2. The Golden Ratio: While the noodles cook, mix 2 tbsp of Kikkoman® Ramen Soup Base with 1 cup (240ml) of hot water directly in your serving bowl.
  3. Combine: Drain your noodles thoroughly, add them to the bowl, and stir gently to coat with the savory broth.
  4. Make it Yours: This is where the fun begins! Add your “twist” by topping your bowl with a soft-boiled egg, sliced green onions, bamboo shoots, nori, or charred pork belly.

Beyond the Bowl

While designed for the perfect ramen, don’t stop there! Use this concentrate as a flavor booster for:

  • Stir-fry Seasoning: Add a splash to your wok for an instant hit of concentrated soy-umami
  • Savory Marinades: Use it as a base for marinating soft-boiled “ramen eggs” (Ajitsuke Tamago).
  • Soup Starter: Use a teaspoon to add depth to vegetable soups or stews that need a savory “kick.”
