Main Course
Japanese tantanmen ramen takes its cue from Chinese dan dan noodles and brings savory, spicy and slightly sweet flavors together in one bowl. You get soft ramen noodles, a rich, spicy broth, ground meat and often a touch of sesame or peanut, which gives the soup its depth. If you already like Japanese food, tantanmen gives you a new set of flavors to try. It warms you up and fills you up, so Japanese cooks make it most in the colder months, but you can eat it year-round.
