About this dish
A fast, slurp-worthy bowl when you need ramen now.
This isn’t your slow-simmered tonkotsu—but when it’s cold out and you’ve got leftover pork belly or roast chook in the fridge, this hits hard. Rich chicken stock boosted with umami from dashi and sesame sauce, poured over chewy noodles, with mushrooms and greens for comfort and bite.
