HELLO! TOKYO TOURS | 5 CUP NOODLE FLAVORS TO GET IN JAPAN
Cup Noodles have been a cornerstone in Japanese fast food. The ingenious design and convenience, taste and cost make it a favorite amongst people worldwide. On our private Yokohama tour, we visit the Cup Noodle Museum where you can learn about the history of how Cup Noodles were made and even create your own Cup Noodles. But, for now, let’s take a look at five different Cup Noodle flavors that you can find on your next trip to Japan.
Cheese Curry
Contrary to Indian and Thai curry, Japanese curry is sweeter and thicker. It’s often loved by children and is also one of the most popular Japanese foods in Japan. When you add cheese to the mix - it makes for a legendary flavor of Cup Noodles. The thick curry soup compliments the the cheese and noodles for a Cup of Heaven!
Miso
I’m sure a lot of have heard of miso soup before. If you thicken up the soup a little and some noodles in it, you get a delicious Miso Cup Noodles! This delicate tasting Cup of Noodle is perfect for you miso lovers.
Protein Cup Noodles
We know that Cup Noodles might not be the healthiest thing in the world. But, the Nissin team has tried taking a “healthier” approach to it by making their “PRO” Cup Noodle series that’s packed with protein! Each Cup of Noodle has 15 grams of protein for those that want a little more out of the noodles.
TONKOTSU (PORK)
Tonkotsu literally means pork bone. The tonkotsu ramen is a very common and popular broth due to it’s rich and refreshing taste. Now that it’s put into a Cup Noodle? Who wouldn’t like it?! It’s definitely worth trying for it’s delicious tasting broth.
HOKKAIDO MILK SEAFOOD
When it comes to food in Hokkaido (The northern most part of Japan) many Japanese people might think of two things - milk and seafood. Combine these two into a Cup Noodle and you get this unique, creamy seafood noodle! It’s oddly satisfying and is a bit similar to having a carbonara but in a Cup Noodle.
