Tokushima Ramen: Experience the Ultimate
Bowl at “Menya Teppen” I’ve loved ramen since I was a kid. I envisioned a place where customers would
come to eat every day , so I serve easy-to-eat Tokushima ramen. We’re particular about ingredients too:
Our tonkotsu broth, prepared over many
hours and the sweet-and-spicy simmered pork
belly slices — essential to Tokushima
ramen . Our most popular item!

string to keep the shape intact during
cooking . We use pork belly blocks . Staff: How much meat do you use per day? Since we’re a Tokushima Ramen shop, sliced
pork belly is popular, but on weekends we use about 10kg per day . Chashu sauce We simmer it in our special chashu sauce. Staff) How long does it take to simmer the
chashu? Simmer for an hour and a half turn off the
heat let it steam for an hour Preparing the tonkotsu broth for ramen . Add pork spine , knuckles, and pig’s feet Crack the knuckles . We use about 20kg of knuckles per batch Put the cracked knuckles into the stockpot Add the pig’s feet Add the knuckles to the tonkotsu broth
prepared the previous day We remove all the bones used the previous
day , but add new bones this morning. to
extract a fresh, robust broth . ( If we don’t remove the bones used the
previous day) sourness develops, and the broth becomes stale We want to serve our customers the
freshest possible broth , so basically, after using it for one day,
we discard it the next. Cook rice. Manager: Staff) Is the rice mainly for fried rice? Staff) For fried rice and rice served with
sets ? Manager: Does it come out often? Yes, it does. On busy days, we cook up to 6 sho
( 2 liters) a day. We cook 2 sho (approx. 3.6 liters) at a

simmer. The sweet and savory simmered pork belly
slices are a key ingredient characteristic
of Tokushima Ramen. Staff) Is this the chashu cooked the
previous day? We prepare the next day’s portion the day
before . It rests in the refrigerator overnight
before use Cutting the chashu for Chinese-style
noodles. Staff) Is the chashu different for
Chinese-style noodles? Only the chashu for Chinese noodles is
different It uses a lighter, thinner soy
sauce. This darker one is chashu based on dark

in 1999 and continues to this day . The interior has an old-fashioned
atmosphere . Owner: “It’s a soup noodle (tanmen)
shop, so tanmen (orders) are pretty much
all we get. ” Skimming the scum off the prepared tanmen
soup base. A special soup made by continuously
topping it up . A simple soup made with just pork bones
for the broth Cutting cabbage . Carefully removing the core from each one . Owner:The toppings for tanmen are
cabbage, carrots, and bean sprouts. Cabbage is our main
ingredient. We use cabbage grown locally in Tokushima
Prefecture and Tsumagoi Village, Gunma
Prefecture We cut the cabbage a bit larger so it
doesn’t fall apart during cooking Staff) What did you do before opening the
shop ? Owner) I worked at a bank . There was a
dormitory for the bank employees . I helped prepare meals for the dorm We used over five heads of cabbage a day Staff) What do you do on your days off ? Owner: Hiking, I guess. Yesterday I went to see the Japanese
titmice. Such cute birds! When you give them sunflower seeds, they
come right up to you. We were like, ” Let’s go see them, ” and off
we went . The founder of “Aji-Mune” started the shop
in 1966. Staff: What kind of relationship do you
have with the founder ? Owner: He provided this location. (The
founder) was renting it . When the two of them got older, they
said they were quitting We thought we couldn’t let Uncle’s flavors
disappear, so we took over . We had absolutely no experience running
a shop like this . They said , “We’ll teach you everything,”
so we said, “Alright, let’s do it,” and my husband and I We started running
it, but my husband passed away soon after . I was thinking, ” What should I do ? I
can’t do this ,” when a customer happened to come by during
a break and said, “You should keep the shop open.” I guess I was pushed by those words. I’ve been running it ever since. Cutting carrots. Homemade kimchi . Owner: Napa cabbage, carrots, and
ginger. People who like it, really like it . Staff: Is that also the previous owner’s
recipe? Owner:Yes, yes. The rice is done cooking. We use rice grown by farmers in Awa City,
Tokushima Prefecture (formerly Tsuchinari
Town) . Owner) Some people put it in their soup
noodles , saying “it goes well with
tanmen.” It’s like a rice porridge . Someone who helps out at the shop arrives
for work. She’s a classmate of the owner’s daughter
and has known the owner for a long time. I used to work here a little while back I left for a while, but after getting

… Staff) Which menu items sell well? But tanmen is definitely the most popular. We use delicious cabbage depending on the
season , sourcing locally grown cabbage and
ingredients . It’s not Tokushima ramen, but since
light soy sauce ramen isn’t common around
here , people come for it . It’s spicy
with pepper, so customers know to order it
without pepper or with less pepper . The
menu text hasn’t changed since the
previous owner’s time. The owner doesn’t want to change that .
