“Frozen udon” is a food that can be made quickly and fills your hunger on weekday nights when you are tired and tired. I often boil it quickly and sprinkle it with soup and top it with eggs and green onions, but I personally rely on it so much that I'm worried if I don't have it on hand.


Whether or not you know such a situation, recently, "individual meal type" udon soup has been enriched, and each company is developing a wide variety. I was just getting tired of ordinary soup, so I tried and compared the new products released this spring.

◆ Ranking new udon soup products without permission

This time, we prepared Kikkoman "Gourmet noodle sauce Amakara meat bukkake", Higashimaru "Dashimi kimchi bukkake udon soup", Mitsukan "Mazetsuyu scented udon soup", Yamaki "Seafood soy sauce soup udon soup", Yamasa "Kurumitsuyu" (* renewal) ) 5 types. In each case, 2 to 3 servings are divided into small packs for each person, and the price is in the 200 yen range.

The method of making is almost the same. Simply tighten the boiled udon noodles with water and entangle the soup, or in the case of soup soup, put it in soba noodles. Add condiments and ingredients to your liking and eat. Frozen udon can be thawed in the microwave, but if you have time, you can boil it in a pot evenly!


Thus, the author who held the Udon Festival alone for about a week. Below are the top three personally selected.

3rd place: Kikkoman "Ingredient noodle sauce Amakara meat bukkake"


A great value product with plenty of sweet and spicy seasoned meat and burdock. The addictive taste of jar jar noodles is perfect when you want to eat solidly. The seasoning is strong, so you can eat it with vegetables such as green onions and cucumbers until the end.


2nd place: Mizkan "Mazetsuyu scented sudachi"


A sweet soup with a refreshing acidity and aroma that makes chopsticks slippery even if you don't have an appetite. The balance of this acidity is truly Mizkan. If I ate it in the summer, it might have been number one.


1st place: Yamaki "Seafood soy sauce soup udon soup"


A rich soup with a moderately sour taste and the scent of soup stock that spreads instantly when you put it in your mouth. The authentic taste and the style of tsukemen udon, which is not strange even if it comes out at a tsukemen shop, was novel, so I ranked first. Not only udon but also Chinese noodles will be delicious.


The other products seemed to have different tastes, so they were unfortunately out of the ranks. It went well with udon noodles, so if you look at the package and it comes to you, you can try it and eat it.



Even if you love udon, changing the toppings may not be enough. At such times, you can easily enjoy a different taste than usual. How about for today's rice?
