 Ramen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Most ramen noodles are made from four basic ingredients: wheat flour, salt, water, and kansui (かんすい).
Ramen can be topped with any number of ingredients, such as a raw or boiled egg, menma (fermented and pickled young bamboo), naruto kamaboko, nori, spinach, negi (welsh onion), shiitake or chāshū (char siu, 叉焼 or 焼豚: traditionally a barbecued pork but usually a thinly sliced boiled pork when used as a ramen topping).
The shoyu ("soy sauce") flavor is similar to that of shio ramen, but instead of chicken broth, the stock may be made from konbu (kelp), katsuobushi (fish flakes) and niboshi (dried baby sardines).
