Hakodate Salt Ramen

Hakodate Salt Ramen is one of Hokkaido's three major ramen styles, featuring transparent salt-flavored broth paired with thin straight noodles. The golden broth made from a pork bone and chicken bone base is light yet rich in depth. Simple toppings of chashu, menma, and green onion highlight the quality of the ingredients. Hakodate city is home to numerous salt ramen restaurants, from century-old establishments to rising new shops, and the differences in the color and clarity of each shop's broth is part of the appeal.
