TORASHO FROZEN SPICY TONKOTSU RAMEN

TORASHO FROZEN SPICY TONKOTSU RAMEN 

Rich, creamy tonkotsu, a good kick of chilli — straight from the freezer.

FIRST FROZEN RAMEN IN SINGAPORE

When we first created our frozen ramen with Chef Sho, there was nothing like it in Singapore.

We wanted to see if a proper restaurant bowl of ramen — the noodles, broth and toppings — could be prepared by chefs, frozen together, and kept at home until the moment you wanted it.

TORASHO Frozen Tonkotsu Ramen became the first frozen ramen of its kind in Singapore — and the beginning of our JX-style Whole Frozen Ramen series.

FROM TORASHO’S KITCHEN TO YOURS

This ramen was developed from scratch here in Singapore with Chef Sho Naganuma, owner of TORASHO Ramen & Charcoal Bar.

Rather than creating an instant ramen inspired by a restaurant, we wanted to make something much closer to the real thing.

A bowl made by restaurant chefs, prepared properly, then frozen so you can keep it at home.

That became our Restaurant-X Series — collaborations with Japanese chefs and restaurants in Singapore, bringing some of their dishes into the everyday kitchen.

THE WHOLE BOWL, FROZEN TOGETHER

The noodles.
The spicy tonkotsu broth.
The chashu.

Everything is prepared first, then frozen together as one complete block.

No separate soup packets.
No water to measure.
Not even hot water to add.

Take it straight from the freezer, set the nori aside, and place the frozen block directly into a pot.

As it heats, the spicy tonkotsu broth slowly melts and the noodles begin to loosen.

After approximately 8 minutes, once the noodles have separated and the chashu is heated through, transfer everything to a bowl and add the nori.

CREAMY TONKOTSU, WITH A GOOD KICK OF CHILLI

It starts with the same Hakata-style tonkotsu — creamy, savoury and garlicky, without being overly heavy.

Then comes the chilli.

A generous amount of chilli cuts through the creamy broth, bringing a proper kick without losing the richness of the tonkotsu.

The noodles have a satisfying texture, while the chashu is tender with a lightly charred, smoky flavour.

For those who like their ramen spicy, this is the one.

Sho Naganuma

Chef Sho Naganuma is the owner of TORASHO Ramen & Charcoal Bar and Chef Partner / Managing Director of Story of HIBIKI, Suntory’s first dining concept of its kind in Asia.

TORASHO Frozen Tonkotsu Ramen was one of the first ideas we created together — and the beginning of what has since grown into our Whole Frozen Ramen series.

The real taste of TORASHO, at home.
