Asahikawa ramen is a popular style of ramen originating from Asahikawa, a city in Hokkaido, Japan. It is known for its rich, soy sauce-based broth, which is often made from a combination of chicken and pork. The noodles are typically medium-thick and slightly curly, providing a satisfying texture that complements the flavorful soup. One distinctive feature of Asahikawa ramen is the use of toppings like chashu (braised pork), menma (bamboo shoots), and green onions. Additionally, it is common to see a layer of fat on the surface of the broth, which enhances the overall flavor and aroma, making it a beloved dish among ramen enthusiasts.
