These noodles are a bit pricey, but in my opinion, worth the cost. Excellent flavor and mouth-feel when used as a dipping noodle, or added to a soup base. Recommended.
A convenient, versatile and excellent tasting Dashi powder. Very good for dipping sauce for noodles, or as a soup base for noodles and additions. Definitely worth keeping in the pantry. Recommended.
Rich silky texture with bits of real truffles to accentuate the robust umami flavor of the white soy. It's the perfect dip for fish, beef and other meats and a fabulous addition to popcorn.
Moribun mentsuyu soup base is indeed a very good product. Diluted by 50% it makes an excellent noodle dipping sauce. Undiluted the sauce has plenty of smokey umami that can be used in a variety of applications, from soups stocks to concentrated dressing for fish, poultry or vegetables. We find it a great product, and will keep it in our pantry to use for exploring/inventing new dishes and dressings. Recommended.
I am not a big fan of strong dashi flavor, but this mentsuyu is perfect for me. Amazing with cold udon noodles and grated ginger. Will buy it again soon!
