@DivineIntern Early versions were wheat noodles in broth topped with Chinese-style roast pork. But what is China? China, officially the People's Republic of China, is a country in East Asia. Covering 9.6 million square kilometres, it's the world's 3rd or 4th-largest country by area.

@DivineIntern Slurping ramen is not a rude notion in Japan. It's expected. To eat ramen quickly without burning yourself, slurp the noodles to cool them down before swallowing. There are various types of thickness, shapes and lengths. Noodles may be thin or thick, straight or wrinkled.

@DivineIntern The word “ramen” may have come from the Chinese word “lamian,” a type of Chinese noodle. Currently,there are 19 official regional ramen styles recognized by Japan’s Ramen Museum, including Sapporo, Tokyo (Ogikubo), Kyoto and Sano. Each style has unique ingredients and techniques.

Did you know ramen may have originated from China? Scholars believe that “shina shoba” (“Chinese style” noodle soup) was imported to Japan between the 17th and 20th centuries. Did you also know miso ramen was born in Sapporo, Japan around the mid-1950s?
