Why is Japanese food mostly light, but Lamian Noodles in Japan is especially salty?
The so-called Japanese food tastes light. . . I have been to Japan for four times, and I feel that this statement is getting more and more unreliable. There are indeed many lightly cooked dishes in Japanese meals, such as seafood sashimi.

Kyoto

Tofu is really glutinous and refreshing, but there are also many dishes with heavy oil and salt, which may be healthier than other cuisines.

When it comes to Lamian Noodles, Lamian Noodles and Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou are two opposite directions, and Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou is basically clear soup. Lamian Noodles, Japan pays the most attention to thick soup, which must be heavy oil. Secondly, there is a lot of salt, and many Lamian Noodles have some pickled vegetables, which is even more salty.

Kyoto

Lamian Noodles is relatively salty. If you go to Shikoku, you will basically feel that there is a lot of salt in the bowl, and the side dishes are mostly pickles. After eating a bowl of noodles, your mouth is almost salty. Northeast Japan is also a heavy taste, so the incidence of gastric cancer in northeast Japan is relatively high in Japan.

As far as the different Japanese Lamian Noodles I have tasted are concerned, they are basically heavy in taste. Let me give you some chestnuts:

Yilan Lamian Noodles in Fukuoka, Kitakyushu is quite famous. There are two main differences. One is that the seats are set around the kitchen, and there are partitions between the seats. Right in front of the seats is a small window with bamboo curtains. The service staff is inside, and the ticket bought by the vending machine outside the door is handed to the waiter through the window. After a while, the waiter will bring the noodles. It is the most private noodle restaurant I have ever seen. It doesn't matter how loud you make when you eat noodles inside. The second characteristic is that the standard noodle of the signboard is served in a five-sided bowl. The spicy and salty taste are just right, which is strong and won't make you feel unbearable.

Kumamoto Lamian Noodles in central Kyushu has a completely different flavor. Walking in Kumamoto street, I often smell a stinky smell in the air. Later, I realized that this is a major feature of Kumamoto Lamian Noodles, which is enhanced by fried garlic. Whether it's South Kyushu or Kitakyushu, the Lamian Noodles is full of thick slices of meat.

Based on the thick white pig bone soup, It is a far cry from the word "light".

The "Lamian Noodles" in the "Xiaodou Noodle Restaurant" in Azukijima, Shikoku, is the saltiest Japanese Lamian Noodles I have ever eaten. The signboard in the store is the set meal of soy sauce Lamian Noodles+cooked rice. The famous Azukijima soy sauce is used for the soy sauce Lamian Noodles, and the "cooked rice" is a famous product in Azukijima. It is pickled with soy sauce with dried fish, seaweed and other by-products of soy sauce brewing. Both of them are very salty. At the end of eating, the salty mouth can only be solved by drinking water. Eight glasses of water a day is definitely not a problem.

In addition, many Japanese ramen restaurants can order a bowl of rice at the same time when eating noodles, so that they can be full and not so salty.
