Here’s one that came in a Zenpop box – here’s what they had to say about it – ‘Toyo Suisan delivers a symphony of flavors and ingredients with this duck, bonito based ramen cup. The soba noodles are a perfect transistor for the tingle of the seven spice chili seasoning. But this tingle dances upon not only the elegant fatty duck flavor, but also the umami of shiitake and seaweed. Duck based stock is known to be a healthier alternative in Japan, though we won’t promise any effect in that department… That said, the amount is very satisfying, especially coming in a convenient cup!’

Loose bits and seasoning from the cup.

A liquid seasoning sachet.

Finished (click to enlarge). Added egg, flower fu, narutomaki, sansyo, scallion, and sesame seed. Noodle was better than I expected.

Compelling stuff. 3.75 out of 5.0 stars.  JAN bar code 4901990375290.
