Here’s what they had to say ‘This product is a new product of the “This is the third in the “Order NIPPON” series, which uses carefully selected ingredients from all over Japan! We’ve gotten you a salt-based soup (塩) made from Toyama prefecture’s (富山県) white shrimp dashi (白エビだし) with a well balanced flavor of vegetables based on chicken. The dish is served with round blade edge noodles that have moderate elasticity and smoothness. The noodles are then matched with soybean porridge with good texture, eggs with good color, green onions, and soup and adding juicy fu.”
Shrimp? Fu? Okay let’s check it out.

The noodle block.
Loose bits and seasoning from the cup.
A liquid sachet.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added shrimp, narutomaki, sansyo, mung bean sprouts, and spring onion. Noodle was pretty good; I’ll give it that. The broth however was a little funky with a just plain off kind of taste and the shrimp aspect just didn’t appeal to me. 2.0 out of 5.0 stars. JAN bar code 4901071247683.
