“Shrimp Wonton Noodles”: a perfect match with salt broth
At Ramen Honma, you can choose between two types of broth for all ramen dishes: salt and soy sauce.
If you prefer the salt broth, we recommend the “Shrimp Wonton Noodles.”

The base broth is made by simmering beef, pork, and chicken bones with nearly ten types of vegetables and seafood. The salt-based sauce that complements the broth is made from three types of salt.
The resulting soup, made with over 30 ingredients, offers a balanced umami flavor without any single ingredient overpowering the others.
It’s a refreshing, clear broth with a deep, layered richness from the various ingredients.

The plump shrimp wontons bathing in the amber-colored broth are notable not only for their size but also for their delightful texture. Nestled inside each wonton is a filling made with finely chopped shrimp and a whole shrimp as well.
