Rules of Conduct:

  1. Posts must have flair. All posts should be tagged with flair. You can select this prior to posting or after posting. Including the tag in the subject of the title is also acceptable.

  2. Be respectful. Please be kind to your fellow ramen slurpers. We're all here to enjoy ramen in its various forms. Rude comments and posts will be removed. Continued offenses will result in being banned.

  3. Posts must be about ramen. All posts should be about ramen (this is a ramen subreddit after all). Udon, soba, and other noodle types outside of ramen or instant noodles will be removed. Ramen offshoots, like mazesoba, tsukemen, or instant noodle hacks, are accepted.

  4. Limit self promotion. No blog/website/affiliate/other revenue generation spamming. If you'd like to promote something, please limit your self posts to 1 in 10 posts. It's ok to be a Redditor with a blog. It's not ok to be a blog with a Reddit account.

  5. No Low-effort Posts. It may seem desirable to post an image of a t-shirt, or a package of instant noodles, but these posts reduce the quality of the subreddit. Whenever possible, fully-made dishes are preferred over images of packages, memes, or ramen-themed apparel. Homemade components are allowed.

  6. No images of Instant Noodle Packages. This overlaps slightly with no low-effort posts, but we specifically prohibit posts that are only images of instant noodle that are uncooked or unprepared. For more discussion on these, /r/instantramen is a better fit.

Please let the mods know via mod email if you see any violations of the rules above. We try to be aware, but sometimes things slip through the cracks.

Pesto tonkotsu ramen

This is the Green King from Ramen Nagi, my favorite local ramen shop. It’s a tonkotsu base ramen with chashu and they add pesto, shaved parm, and bits of bacon on top. I’m a huge pesto lover which made this absolutely perfect for me because it wasn’t overwhelmingly pesto flavored but it still added an interesting herbal flavor to the rich broth. I’m curious how polarizing this dish is, would you try it?

Tonkatsu is bland how to fix??

So I went to this ramen place and the tonkatsu I got was a garlic tonkatsu (it was the only tonkatsu on the menu and this is the only ramen place in town). It's not very rich, it's not even garlicky, the ramen is just a bit bland. I have Sriracha, Japanese mayo, eel sauce, hoisin and soy sauce as well as a stir fry sauce in my fridge. Any tips??

HELP! Need a Recipe!

https://preview.redd.it/4np884zzuskd1.jpg?width=1257&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=782f49050efbcda637767fe79668f41388e282b0

i visited Japan a week ago and we came across the Restraunt ''Torisoba Zagin Niboshi'' in Osaka. We ate "Chicken White Soup Soba" (atleast google says it's something calles like that) and it was probably one of the most delicious Foods i have ever eaten and i am in desperate need of a recipe. If anyone knows a recipe for this. please let me know. The broth alone would be enough, i think its a mixture of Tonkorsu and chicken, or just chicken bone maybe? Please let me know if u know something!!! Thank You!

How to make the chicken seasoning packet taste better?

So a buddy of mine gave me a dozen packs of these mc trader chicken ramen and let me tell you that the seasoning is worst thing I've ever had eating ramen. I eat only once or twice a day, with a bowl of instant ramen being my main source as I haven't went a day in the past 20 something years eating them. Usually 3 packs per bowl, my face is mixing the picante and creamy chicken with a Chile pack then basic add ons like veggies, random meat from leftovers, and vinegar.

So my question is how to make that packet of seasoning taste better? I've tried multiple tricks but 1 packet of MC in 2 packets of maruchan or top just ruins everything. No I do not have an Asian market near me or I'd be there everyday, just the usual dollar stores, Walmart, and Lowe's in my town. The only helpful advice I got was throw that seasoning packet away and use bouillon instead. Anyway to make the seasoning packet better or am I sol

PS My Stitch is ramen connoisseur too lol

redditors of r/ramen, i need your HELP

i’m a HUGE picky eater and have honestly never, in my life, tried ramen. i don’t mean picky as in “oh yeah i dont like (insert food here) i mean i’m PICKY. i don’t like bread, or onions (unless its onion sauce), or eggs, shrimp (most seafood at that), chashu, menma, seaweed, naruto (the pink and white pinwheels AND the anime), butter, you get my point.

i am a chefs most despised customers, a 3zooma (arabs will get it) hosts’ worst enemy, etc.

please give me ideas 🙏

First try at assembling 'kits' for friends

Finally got to the point where I need to start spreading the love around so I put together these kits for a couple of friends today.

Tori Paitan (Not pictured) Shoyu Tare Negi Abura-ish aroma oil Flat cut Hakata-style noodles Sous vide pork shoulder Chashu Green onions

My wife didn't want ramen tonight, so I'll share a pic of my own bowl once I make it.

Anyone try this?

I bought it at my local international market. I’m a newbie when it comes to spicy ramen, I’ve tried Shin (my favorite), Buldak, and Buldak 2x, I’m curious how this measures up and what heat level to actually expect. And any tips or preferences you have when you guys prepare it. :) Thanks!

Ideas for spicy vegetarian at-home ramen?

Hi! I am an absolute beginner to making ramen, so I often have a hard time thinking up ingredients to add to the dish. What would be some good ingredients to add to achieve a spicy vegetarian ramen, aside from onion, leek, and egg? Thanks so much!

やわらかチャーシューラーメン

Went to a place called Nariya in Fujiyoshida after visiting popular tourist sites around mt. Fuji. Tried their specialty soft chashu ramen (yawaraka chashu ramen). The family restaurant owner was so kind and has 40 years of experience in the culinary arts, therefore the food was amazing!

IMMI Protein Ramen

I made the mistake of trying this. It is absolutely awful. Consistency is strange, but the taste is like cardboard. What is worse is the smell, stinks up the kitchen. The actual broth is BLAND.

All around, terrible. I never leave bad reviews because it is like, hey, just my opinion, and really, nothing is so bad that I need to spend the effort to leave a negative review. This stuff is THAT BAD that, and also pretty pricey.

I don't care how good it is for you, this stuff is flat out awful. Anyone who orders this stuff more than once must be out of their mind.

That said, the toppings add-on thing isn't bad. But you can get same thing elsewhere.
