About Tonkotsu broth

Tonkotsu broth is a rich, creamy soup base originating from Japanese cuisine, specifically Kyushu, where ramen culture thrives. Made by simmering pork bones, fat, and connective tissues for hours, its deep flavor and velvety texture are a hallmark of traditional ramen dishes. The broth is typically seasoned with soy sauce or miso, enhancing its umami profile. While Tonkotsu is prized for its hearty and comforting qualities, it is high in fat and sodium, which may not align with low-calorie or low-sodium dietary needs. However, it is a good source of collagen and gelatine from the simmered bones, beneficial for skin and joint health. Tonkotsu broth serves as a delicious, indulgent treat that represents the passion and craftsmanship of Japanese culinary tradition.
