Yuzu Shio Ramen

　I always crave ramen when I’m on a business trip to the regions. Few dishes divide opinion quite like ramen, yet it is also a dish that reflects the flavours deeply rooted in each local area.

　Located close to Kanazawa Station, Yuzuki is a real lifesaver when time is short. Inside the shop, cardboard boxes of yuzu from Tokushima and Ehime are stacked high, giving a real sense of their dedication to yuzu.

　The Yuzu Shio Ramen, made with a chicken and seafood-based broth enhanced with natural salt and yuzu, is refreshingly light—a bowl of ramen that doesn’t leave you feeling guilty about eating something high in calories late at night. As the yuzu is served as a paste, you can enjoy it initially as a plain salt ramen, then stir the paste into the broth to transform it into a full-flavoured Yuzu Shio Ramen—a delightful way to savour the dish.
