Ingredients

• 1 serving ramen noodles
• 1 packet tonkotsu seasoning concentrate
• 1 slice chashu pork
• 2 tbsp corn kernels
• 1 sheet nori seaweed
• 1 tsp sesame seeds
• 1 tsp chopped green onions

Instructions

1. 1Boil the water

   

   Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat, ensuring you have enough water to fully submerge the noodles.

   Tip: Using a larger pot ensures the noodles have space to cook evenly without sticking.
2. 2Cook the ramen noodles

   

   Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook for about seven minutes, stirring occasionally with chopsticks to keep them from sticking.

   Tip: Keep an eye on the cooking time to ensure the noodles remain firm and chewy for the best texture.
3. 3Cool the noodles

   

   Drain the cooked noodles and immediately plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and firm up the strands for that signature chewy texture.

   Tip: Cooling the noodles quickly is crucial for achieving that characteristic chewy Tsukemen texture.
4. 4Prepare the sauce base

   

   Pour the provided seasoning powder into a serving bowl. This concentrate serves as the base for the rich dipping sauce.

   Tip: Ensure the bowl is dry before adding the powder to prevent clumping.
5. 5Prepare the rich dipping sauce

   

   Combine the seasoning powder base with hot liquid in a separate bowl, whisking thoroughly until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.

   Tip: Whisk well to ensure all the flavor crystals are fully dissolved into the creamy dipping sauce.
