It's cold and I want to go home as soon as possible in winter. Even the author, who usually eats ramen about once a week, finds it awkward to visit the restaurant ...
The author found the "Ippudo Shiramaru Motomi Hakata Tonkotsu Box" sold at Seven-Eleven. Even though you can buy one box for 170 yen (tax included), the reproduction is amazing!
This product is an instant noodle that you can enjoy the taste of the representative menu "Shiramaru" of the popular ramen shop "Ippudo" at home. Non-fried extra-fine noodles and soup are included in the set, and no ingredients are included.
The noodles are boiled in about one and a half minutes, and the boiled water can be used as it is in the soup. If you like, you can add green onions, char siu, and wood ear toppings to make it more like a shop.
Of course, the noodles have a texture like raw noodles, but the soup was especially impressive. It seems that the same pork skull extract as the soup in the shop is used, and it has a mellow and rich taste.
Another thing I would like to introduce here is the "hot spicy sauce" sold from the "Home IPPUDO" series.
This sauce, which can be purchased at supermarkets, is a sauce that allows you to make "spicy bean sprouts" with free toppings just by lightly boiled bean sprouts (I bought it at Miuraya). It should be noted that the taste will be closer to the taste if it is left overnight rather than freshly made.
By the way, my family liked it so much that I could change it, so I thought it would be a good idea to have a stock of dried noodles. If you want to eat tonkotsu ramen at home, go to Seven!
