Shoyu is the OG of Ramen

If shio tare is grandma’s chicken soup - quiet, clean, the broth doing all the talking, then shoyu tare is the one with the story. It’s deeper. Richer. A little bit sweet, a little bit funky. It colors your broth, literally and figuratively. When that dark, amber liquid hits the bottom of your bowl and the hot stock pours over it, something happens that is hard to describe until you’ve tasted it. It’s bright and complex at the same time. It’s satisfying in a way that stays with you.
