Ramen is a Japanese noodle soup that has gained popularity in the United States as a quick meal to make at home. Ramen noodles are made from wheat flour, salt and water. The noodles are then dried in large stainless steel drums until they are brittle.

Ramen is often served with toppings such as egg, seaweed, chicken or pork broth and vegetables such as mushrooms or green onions. The broth is usually seasoned with salt, soy sauce and miso paste. The most common ramen noodles are straight but there are other varieties available including curly ones that have a more chewy texture and thicker ones that have more bite to them than regular ramen noodles do.

Ramen can be eaten hot or cold depending on how you prepare it and what type of toppings you use. It is often served in a bowl with a lid so that the steam can keep it hot for longer periods of time before eating it out of the bowl without burning your fingers or lips when trying to grab it from under the lid by accident if you have been too distracted while preparing your food for dinner
