Saga Ramen: Superb harmony between mellow egg yolk and light pork bonesSaga ramen introduction
“Saga ramen” is a local ramen offered mainly in Saga City, Saga Prefecture, and while inheriting the tradition of Kyushu tonkotsu ramen, it has unique characteristics. Although it has its roots in Kurume ramen, Saga ramen is characterized by a style where slightly thick straight noodles are softly boiled, and a light tonkotsu soup with low salt and fat content. While the flavor of pork bones can be clearly felt, the soup is light and easy to drink. Another major characteristic of Saga ramen is the “raw egg (egg yolk)” topping. Many stores only use egg yolk as a topping, which adds mellowness and depth to the soup. Ramen with raw eggs is offered under the menu names “special made” and “deluxe,” which has continued since the Showa era, and makes you feel special. You can also enjoy toppings unique to the local area, such as Saga nori and pork. This Saga ramen has spread at famous stores such as “Ikkyuken” and “Sankyu,” and continues to be loved by locals and tourists even now. When you visit Saga, be sure to experience this gentle flavor of Saga ramen.
