Kamatama Udon
Perfect harmony of freshly boiled noodles and egg
Kamatama Udon introduction
Kamatama Udon (釜玉うどん, Kamadama udon) is a popular variation of Sanuki udon, the famous noodle dish from Kagawa Prefecture. This dish features freshly boiled udon noodles taken straight from the pot and mixed with a raw egg. The piping-hot noodles gently cook the egg, creating a creamy, semi-cooked texture. To finish, it is seasoned with soy sauce or tsuyu (a flavorful dipping sauce), offering a simple yet delightful taste. The name "Kamatama" is a combination of "Kama" (which refers to the pot used for boiling noodles) and "Tama" (meaning egg). It is believed that Kamatama Udon gained popularity after being introduced as a regular menu item at Yamauchi Udon in Ayagawa Town, Kagawa Prefecture.
