ZENB Ramen is all set to whisk your tastebuds straight from Japan to your kitchen table. At a time when ramen consumption is high among food enthusiasts, plant-full food brand ZENB gathered inspiration from its roots for its latest innovation. Using an authentically Japanese approach and real ingredient expertise, the brand created a simply complex take on an internationally beloved dish that rivals the rich flavors of your favorite ramen shop while being entirely vegan and gluten-free.
The entire Ramen Packet comes with the essential components for a perfect bowl of ramen: premium non-fried noodles and a packet of savory, umami-packed soup broth. Like all ZENB Pasta, ZENB Ramen features a single-ingredient noodle made from 100% whole yellow peas that maintains a chewy and satisfyingly springy texture which is key to an elevated, restaurant-quality ramen experience. Plus, this Ramen is just as convenient as its instant counterparts while delivering a better-for-you result with 18 grams of protein and 11 grams of fiber per serving. With no compromise on taste, there are three classic Japanese ramen flavors to enjoy:
Spicy Miso, a savory miso with a blend of chilies for a kick of fiery heat.
Shoyu, a bright, tamari soy sauce with notes of ginger and warming white pepper.
Vegan Tonkotsu, rich, unctuous, full-bodied with notes of nutty toasted sesame and roasted garlic.
“Our name comes from the Japanese concept ‘zenbu’ which means whole, and our whole food approach is on full display with ZENB Ramen. With a growing interest in Asian cuisine and as consumers continue to seek simplicity and convenience from their foods, we tapped our deep understanding of flavor and food ingredients to fashion a refined ramen that embodies the cultural influence of Japan with the added nutritional benefits ZENB is known for.”
Hugo Pérez, ZENB Chief Storyteller
ZENB is a division of Mizkan, a Japanese food company that has been changing the way people think about food for over two centuries. Today, it embraces the long-held nature-driven upcycling approach to food development, adding less, wasting nothing and unleashing the power of plants. This philosophy is what drives ZENB to reinvent pantry staples while preserving the taste, texture, integrity and delight in everyday foods, like with this Ramen.
