About our introductory articles


The popular local ramen in Aomori is, before everything, Niboshi Ramen (the ramen with dried small sardines). Especially in the Tsugaru area, that is supplied at the absolute majority of the ramen restaurants.

It is true that the Niboshi Ramen is exactly the local ramen in Aomori. However, Niboshi Ramen is not the main subject at this time. Another topic is being between Aomori and ramen. According to the research by Ministry of Public Management in 2014, Aomori consumed instant ramen more than any other prefectures in Japan. You can often find the customers who buy the carton load of instant noodles at supermarkets in Aomori, they say.

Why do they consume a lot? How come they so love the instant noodles? We omit inquiring into these questions. It is supposed several reasons multiply involved each other. The point is Aomori is the place of instant ramen.

The popular local instant ramen from Aomori is “Aomori Miso Curry Milk Ramen.” Toyo Suisan has produced. In development of the instant ramen, Association for Popularization of Aomori Miso Curry Milk Ramen generally supported. Namely, the instant noodles are recognized officially by Aomori.

Because they add curry onto miso, it is naturally considered tastes kind of heavy. But milk probably works as a neutralizer and then, the ramen tastes mild surprisingly. Also good is the soup seasoned with ginger! If you were hesitating to visit Aomori directly, this instant ramen goes instead.

At a factory in Japan, they are said to produce the ramen in the end. But I feel sorry they use the mianma and spring onions from China.
