{"product_id":"maruchan-seimen-miso-ramen","title":"Maruchan Seimen Miso Ramen Packet Japanese Non-Fried Noodles 5 Servings 540g","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a bag of five Japanese ramen servings you \u003cstrong\u003ecook in a saucepan\u003c\/strong\u003e, not a cup you pour water into. Each serving is a round block of thick, non-fried noodle with its own sachet of liquid miso soup, and the broth is a savoury pork-and-miso one with a little spice in it. Buy it for the noodle, which is chewy and smooth; if you want a mild, sweet miso, this is the wrong bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the pack: マルちゃん正麺 味噌味. Seimen (say-men) is the name of the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you're getting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe noodle is the reason this range exists.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is dried straight from raw dough, with no steaming or frying, so it cooks up chewy and smooth and eats more like a fresh noodle than a packet one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiso gets the thickest noodle in the Seimen range, so it boils for four minutes, a minute longer than the shoyu (plain soy-sauce) one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe soup is a liquid sachet of miso, not a powder, with pork for body. It sits on the salty side rather than the sweet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMost of the salt is in the soup.\u003c\/strong\u003e For a lighter bowl, use part of the sachet and pile on vegetables.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllergens\u003c\/strong\u003e: contains wheat, egg, sesame and soy. Sesame is declared on the pack but no ingredient names it, so our ingredients panel does not show it: on sesame, trust the allergen list. Read the pack's own label before you rely on ours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlso on the label\u003c\/strong\u003e: there is meat in it. The soup is made with pork extract and lard, and the pack declares chicken and gelatine as well. Anyone who avoids pork or meat should skip it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe one thing to get right: nothing is drained.\u003c\/strong\u003e You boil one noodle block in a measured 500 ml for four minutes, then tip the noodles and all of the cooking water into a bowl where the soup sachet is already waiting. That water is the broth. The cooking steps printed on the pack are in Japanese, so they are set out in English below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not the American Maruchan Ramen; Seimen is a separate Japanese range. Japan updated the recipe in September 2026, and the allergens did not change.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maruchan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67732147503330,"sku":"SH-NDL-0041","price":14.84,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0824\/1312\/5858\/files\/maruchan-seimen-miso-5-pack-bag.webp?v=1792286248","url":"https:\/\/shintop.com.au\/products\/maruchan-seimen-miso-ramen","provider":"Shintop Trading Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
