Shio Ramen

As with all of our ramen, we continuously evolve our recipes and try different ways of making the same ramen style.
For this one, we focused on evolving the shio tare. Adding lots of ingredients like various fruit, dashi components, and aromatic oils to give this delicate shio ramen even more depth and complexity. This bowl had a subtle sweetness against the rich pork and chicken soup, with thin delicate noodles containing speckles of whole wheat.

This bowl was topped with pork belly chashu, pork loin chashu, our house-made jicamenma, spinach, Japanese white negi, and a dash of pepper. 🍜

Tonkotsu Burnt Garlic Oil (BGO)

A rich scratch-made tonkotsu soup with a burnt garlic oil.
We had a lot of fun making this one. This bowl starts with an all pork bone, meat, and fat soup, cooked down for several hours until all that porky richness dissolves into the soup. We season this bowl with a combo shio/shoyu tare for complexity and umami. Next, we take lots of garlic cloves, and cook them down for nearly an hour until it’s basically burnt. Which turns into an aromatic oil which is the signature flavor for this bowl.
We pair this one with some low-hydration thin noodles to pick up the rich soup with every bite.
Topped with pork belly chashu, scratch-made kombu tsukudani, beni shoga, scallions, and nori.

We hope you enjoyed this bowl yesterday! Follow us for more ramen styles coming up soon 🍜

Tori Shio Ramen

Shio ramen is a severely underrepresented ramen style here in the US, partly because it’s quite difficult to do. There is nothing to hide behind and the shio tare amplifies the flavor nuances in the soup.

Shio means “salt” in Japanese. This bowl features a pure chicken and Japanese dashi soup that is seasoned with a shio tare we craft ourselves. This bowl is not simply seasoned with salt, however! We infuse lots of umami-rich ingredients into our tare to make the soup and delicate thin scratch-made noodles shine.

This bowl is topped with roasted pork shoulder chashu, chicken breast chashu, pork loin chashu, duck-niboshi aroma oil, spinach, scallions, and pepper.

Signature Shoyu Ramen

Our shoyu ramen with a pork, chicken, and dashi soup, seasoned with our perpetual kaeshi-style shoyu tare.
This ramen encompasses what Ramen Prosper is all about. When we first started making ramen as Ramen Prosper, shoyu ramen is what we led with. This bowl is the result of hundreds of iterations and endless micro-adjustments with the goal of presenting both a shoyu ramen we’d be proud of serving and one we’d like to enjoy ourselves after service is over.

It starts with a double soup. One with pork and chicken, and the other with japanese dashi we carefully craft. For this version, we braise the pork shoulder chashu in the soup.
Kaeshi-style seasonings are often reused again and again, just like a yakitori tare. Our shoyu tare consists of many different shoyus combined into one. It’s used to season our cooked pork chashu, which is cooked in the soup, and in return the rich meaty flavor of the chashu fortifies the tare.
Our soup is paired with thin, delicate, scratch-made noodles. Topped with pork shoulder chashu, roasted pork loin chashu, our house-made lacto-fermented jicama, scallions, and nori.
We hope you enjoyed this bowl as much as we enjoy preparing it for you.

Includes: pork, chicken, and dashi soup, shoyu tare, delicate thin noodles pork loin chashu, pork shoulder chashu, scallions, lacto-fermented jicama, and nori.
Ajitama and shrimp wonton as optional add-ons.

We hope we enjoyed this bowl yesterday! We’ll be back soon with another ramen service. Keep an eye on our stories 👀

Spicy Seabura Dirty Shoyu Ramen

Inspired by Keizo Shimamoto (Keizo Shimamoto 島本圭造 ), a shoyu ramen with a “dirty” spicy niboshi-scallion paste and sweet pork back fat.

It starts with a pork and chicken chintan soup carefully simmered over several hours. Our perpetual kaeshi-style shoyu tare seasons the whole bowl, combined with a ladle of slow-cooked soft pork back fat for mouthfeel and richness. The “dirty” aspect is in the form of a niboshi-scallion paste, but we added chile de arbol for spiciness. We crafted flat noodles for this ramen, and hand-massaged them (temomi) to help pick up the seabura pork fat and richness from the paste. Topped with pork shoulder chashu, pork loin chashu, thick menma (thank you Ramen512 !), spinach, sweet onion, naruto maki, and nori, this bowl has the foundation of our shoyu ramen, but with a spicy, fishy kick from the niboshi.   We hope you enjoy our take on this dirty shoyu ramen. 🍜

Includes: pork, chicken, and dashi soup, spicy niboshi-scallion paste, seabura, shoyu tare, flat temomi noodles, smoked pork loin chashu, pork shoulder chashu, sweet onion, menma, spinach, naruto.

Tonkotsu Gyokai Tsukemen / Ramen

We hope you enjoyed our updated version of our Tonkotsu Gyokai Ramen!
It took us a while to find the right ingredients for this one and it was a fun one for us to put together.
It started with a larger ratio of pork bones/meat to water and we reduce it down quite a bit to get a thicker more condensed soup. Throughout the soup cooking process, more bones/meat like chicken are added. The morning of ramen service, we bring the soup up to temp and steep Japanese dashi ingredients such as pulverized thick-cut bonito for a punchy, umami-filled soup.

Ramen includes: pork/chicken and gyokai tonkotsu soup, shoyu tare, niboshi-scallion oil, togarashi, amazu, thin low hydration noodles, smoked pork belly, gokobuto menma (shout out to Ramen512 for proving this for us 🙏🏼), scallions, nori, gyofun, Naruto maki.

Tsukemen (test bowl shown) includes: condensed pork/chicken gyokai tonkotsu soup, shoyu tare, niboshi-scallion oil, togarashi, amazu, medium-thick noodles, smoked pork belly, gokobuto menma, scallions, nori, gyofun, Naruto maki.
