Shio ramen

Shio means salt. Salt-based seasoning lets the aromas and flavors of the stock take the lead, making this a good choice when you want to notice the chicken, pork, or seafood beneath the seasoning. Many bowls are light and delicate, though a shio-tonkotsu can still be creamy and rich. Look at the other type labels and the review to get a feel for the bowl.
