Hello everyone~! This is Saori from Japanese Snacks Republic!

This time! It’s super rich, yet easy and delicious! I love this flavor of ramen, so I was really excited from the moment I heard it was coming out!

What is Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen? As the name suggests, it’s a regional ramen originating from Hakata in Japan’s Kyushu area! Its main features are the creamy white soup made from pork bones and the super-thin straight noodles like somen! The broth is made by boiling pork bones over high heat, releasing collagen and resulting in a cloudy, thick soup.

Another typical feature is that you choose your noodle firmness and can get extra servings called 'kaedama'. Each shop adds their own unique twist or ingredients, offering a wide variety of flavors and styles!

And now, Maru-chan ZUBAAAN has released their take on Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen! It’s crafted to be the perfect base so you can customize it yourself. With its rich broth and thin noodles—the classic traits of Hakata Tonkotsu—you can easily recreate the traditional taste!

With Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen, the taste can change depending on ingredients, boiling time, and soup concentration. This ZUBAAAN version has a slightly richer finish! It pairs well with green onions, kikurage mushrooms, and more. It includes two types of soup base, making the flavor quite bold! If you love Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen, this is a rich yet easy-to-make set you can enjoy at home, so definitely give it a try!
