About Miso Ramen
Miso ramen originated in Sapporo, Hokkaido — Japan's northernmost major island — where harsh winters demanded a hearty, warming bowl. The broth is built on a pork or chicken base and finished with miso paste, giving it a rich, complex flavor with a slightly sweet earthiness that no other ramen style can match.
Miso ramen is the most forgiving style for bold toppings: corn, butter, bean sprouts, and ground pork are all at home in the robust broth. It is a cold-weather classic that delivers maximum satisfaction per bowl.
