Here’s one that came in a Zenpop.jp box – use coupon code THERAMENRATER for a groovy discount!

Here’s what they had to say about it – ‘Sukiyaki is one of those dishes that tops the bucket list of any gourmet traveling to Japan. We’re talking mouth watering slices of meat simmered with veggies and in mirin, sugar and soy sauce for a heavenly flavor. But we’re not running a sukiyaki subscription service, so let’s take this one step further! This Udon features Sukiyaki flavored soup for that Japan at home experience, don’t miss it!’

Detail of the lid (click to enlarge).

The noodle block.

Loose bits from the cup.

A powder base sachet.

I think this is mostly seaweed.

Finished (click to enlarge). Added chashu, flower fu, narutomaki, mung bean sprouts, spring onion, and sesame seed. Udon is broad but very soft. Broth isn’t bad; a little sweetness and fishiness going on here; I can get the sukiyaki flavor aspect. The included meaty bits are nice, however seem a little off. 3.5 out of 5.0 stars.  JAN bar code 4901990375238.
