Myojo Spicy Tantanmen Ramen
What it is
This is a convenient instant ramen kit designed to replicate the rich and spicy flavors of Tantanmen, a popular Sichuan noodle dish. It typically includes dried ramen noodles and a concentrated soup base or paste. The soup base often features a blend of chili oil, sesame paste, and savory seasonings, creating a complex and warming broth that is characteristic of authentic Tantanmen.

To prepare, you will typically boil the included ramen noodles in water according to the package directions. While the noodles cook, you can prepare the soup base by mixing the paste or powder with hot water in a serving bowl. Once the noodles are cooked, drain them and add them to the prepared broth. You can enhance the dish by adding your own toppings such as a soft-boiled egg, green onions, or a drizzle of chili oil for extra heat.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike milder instant ramen varieties, this Tantanmen version is specifically formulated for a spicier profile. The inclusion of sesame paste in the broth gives it a distinct creamy texture and nutty undertone that sets it apart from broths based solely on chili and soy sauce.
