{"product_id":"myojo-charumera-barikata-tonkotsu-ramen","title":"Myojo Charumera Barikata Tonkotsu Ramen Packet Japanese Pork Bone Ramen 5 x 82g","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a bag of five packets of Japanese tonkotsu (pork-bone) ramen you cook in a saucepan, each with a soup powder and a small pork-oil sachet. The soup is a creamy pork-bone soup with garlic and pepper, and the very thin, straight noodle is non-fried and cooks in 90 seconds. Buy it for a quick tonkotsu with a firm, ramen-shop style noodle; if you want the thick broth of a ramen bar or a big bowl, this is the wrong bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the pack: チャルメラ バリカタ麺 豚骨. Charumera (cha-roo-meh-ra) is the brand; barikata (ba-ri-ka-ta) is the word tonkotsu ramen shops use for a noodle served very firm; tonkotsu (ton-kot-soo) means pork bone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you're getting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA very thin, firm noodle.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is straight and dried, and unlike the noodles in the other Charumera bags we sell, it is not fried.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoiled for the 90 seconds the maker gives, it is firm and springy, not crunchy, and it keeps softening in the hot soup, so have the bowl ready before it goes in the pot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is a smaller serve: each 82 g packet holds 70 g of noodle, against 90 g in the Charumera soy-sauce, salt and miso bags, so a big appetite may want two.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe second sachet is pork oil, which lifts the smell of pork and garlic in the bowl.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllergens\u003c\/strong\u003e: contains wheat, egg, milk, crustaceans (shrimp), molluscs (scallop), sesame and soy. Japanese labels don't have to flag molluscs as allergens, so the pack names them only in its ingredient list (scallop extract). If you avoid them, look for them by name in the ingredients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlso on the label\u003c\/strong\u003e: there is meat in it: pork extract and lard are in it, and the pack declares chicken as well. Anyone who avoids pork or meat should skip it. It is made on equipment that also handles buckwheat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe toppings pictured on the bag are a serving idea: each packet holds the noodle and its two sachets, nothing else. It is made by Myojo Foods of Japan. A Charumera Barikata cup, or an older 415 g bag, is a different product.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Myojo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67799042359522,"sku":"SH-NDL-0052","price":15.39,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0824\/1312\/5858\/files\/myojo-charumera-barikata-tonkotsu-5-pack-bag.webp?v=1793255429","url":"https:\/\/shintop.com.au\/products\/myojo-charumera-barikata-tonkotsu-ramen","provider":"Shintop Trading Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
