Behind the Dish

Originating from Japan, Shoyu Paitan is a modern take on traditional ramen, with its rich, creamy chicken broth and shoyu tare. The term "Paitan" refers to the cloudy, milk-like consistency of the broth, achieved by simmering chicken bones at high heat. This style of ramen, known for its bold umami, reflects Japan’s deep-rooted culinary artistry and innovation in noodle culture.
