Here’s one that was in a box from Zenpop. Their monthly boxes feature a slew of varieties from Japan – use coupon code RAMENRATER for a discount!

Sio (shio) is salt ramen. I’m really curious how a smoky and spicy taste will go in this one – not what I’m used to so that’s a plus. So many varieties from Japan – and always something new to try which boggles the mind after trying over 3,000 varieties. Let’s check it out!

Loose bits and seasoning from the cup.

Finished (click to enlarge). Added chili flake, spring onion, and Salad Cosmo mung bean sprouts. Noodles hydrated to about 85% of enjoyable. The flavor was just a confusing mess; kind of reminded me of an alfredo sauce pizza from a local joint. Just not my thing. 1.5 out of 5.0 stars.  JAN bar code 4902105250143.
