A niboshi or yakiboshi (small dried fish) broth-based ramen is representative of Aomori’s ramen, and is also called as “Tsugaru Ramen”. Nowadays, it can be said that you might meet two types of Tsugaru ramen.
One is familiar from old days, with clear soup and simple flavor of niboshi or yakiboshi, and the ramen is what is called classic ramen.
Another one is ramen in the mixed soup of niboshi-based broths and meat-based broths like torigara (chicken stock broth) or tonkotsu (pork bone broth) that make flavor of niboshi stronger. It is called as “Noukou Niboshi Kei (rich niboshi type)”, getting popular recent days, with rich taste of strong niboshi flavor.
Everyone, who loves ramen, also loves the classic ramen in Tsugaru. On the other hand, it can say that some people like unique and strong flavor of Nouukou-niboshi-kei, and some don’t. However it is true that new type is getting popular more and more.
