## Description

Cute Extracted Japanese Pasta Soup Base

Review: This stuff is amazing for marinating vegetables for the grill, normally my marinade is 1/2 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup soy sauce for my chopped peppers, onions and broccoli. Last night I ran out of soy sauce, so I decided to replace the soy sauce with this noodle Soup Base. OMG, it was the biggest hit ant the dinner table, the taste blew away the regular sousauce and added that bit of sweetness.
Review: I soooo love this ! Best soup base and flavour will be buying for life

**Q: Can this be use for Tare for tonkotsu ramen?**

Ramen is actually a japanese adaptation of Chinese noodle soups, and is generally made with a meat-based stock, whereas this product is intended to be used with native Japanese noodle soups, like udon, soba, and somen.

**Q: Is this soup base hot spiced. i am looking for no hot spice base.**
A: This is not spicy. I can use this such as cold soup.

*by D***H on 3 November 2025*

Like many other reviewers - this Soup Base is RIDICULOUSLY priced and if you dont like it you cant return it. The seller needs to bring the price down to a maximum $10.99 to even consider getting repeat buyers on Amazon. Price Gouge. So why did I buy it - well I live in the "outpost" of Ontario and the product is nowhere to be found :( When it dipped in price to $17 I bit the bullet and bought it. The promised delivery time almost didn't happen which was also aggravating. Howeverrrrr that being said, the flavor IS amazing. Light in color - Big on Taste. I'd go with slightly beefy with a twist. See there is fish/tuna in the ingredients which of course gives it a distinctly different flavor. Looking forward to using this over my beef rolls to make GYUDON which I love. Will I purchase here again -- NO! The next time I'm in a big city I'll try and purchase several bottles instead. I can recommend for flavor but not for price.
