What is Shoyu Ramen
Shoyu ramen is a type of ramen that originated in Japan and some people call Chu-ka Soba. In 1910 (Meiji 43), it is said that the first Shoyu Ramen in Japan was served at Rairaiken(來々軒) in Asakusa. But first, it was served as ‘Tokyo Ramen’, and Tokyo Ramen is still a popular term for it on menus.
Shoyu Ramen is the most beloved ramen in all of Japan, therefore, the taste is totally dependent on local or ramen shops preferences. If you compared Shoyu Ramen all over Japan, you would find many unique differences in each.

Shoyu Ramen Toppings
For Shoyu Ramen, I recommend Chashu, Nitamago, Menma or green onion. I think adding Chashu is amazing for Shoyu Ramen but it takes time to make Chashu so if you want Shoyu Ramen quickly, just green onion and Nitamago are great!

- Make the noodles first! This step is depends on which noodles you use. I use this type. I boiled 1000ml water (or enough water to cover the noodles), added the 1 person noodles and cooked for 4 minutes. Drain water.
