List of ramen dishes

Ramen is a popular Japanese dish that has gained international recognition for its depth of flavor and versatility. This article provides a list of various ramen dishes that are popular in Japan and around the world.

Types of Ramen

Shoyu Ramen

Shoyu Ramen is one of the most common types of ramen. It is characterized by its clear, brown broth, which is made from chicken and vegetable stock with plenty of soy sauce added for a savory, tangy flavor.

Miso Ramen

Miso Ramen is a ramen dish that uses miso paste for its base. The miso gives the broth a rich, complex flavor that is hearty and comforting. This type of ramen is popular in the northern regions of Japan, where the cold weather calls for heavier, heartier dishes.

Tonkotsu Ramen

Tonkotsu Ramen is known for its creamy, rich broth made from boiling pork bones for several hours. The result is a milky white broth that is deeply flavorful and satisfying. This type of ramen is a specialty of Kyushu, the southernmost of Japan's main islands.

Tsukemen

Tsukemen is a unique type of ramen where the noodles and broth are served separately. The diner dips the noodles into the broth before eating. The broth for tsukemen is typically thicker and more intense than other types of ramen broths.

Shio Ramen

Shio Ramen is a type of ramen that uses salt as the primary seasoning. The broth is typically clear and light, making it a good choice for those who prefer a less heavy ramen dish.

Regional Variations

In addition to the basic types of ramen, there are also many regional variations. For example, Hakata Ramen from Fukuoka is known for its rich tonkotsu broth and thin noodles, while Sapporo Ramen from Hokkaido is famous for its use of miso and local seafood.
