エースコック will launch Chinese noodles featuring black shichimi pepper on 2 November as a new product in its "Japanese Hospitality" series. Supervised by Hara Rokukaku, a long-established Kyoto Gion restaurant, the product combines springy, smooth noodles with a 3-minute rehydration time.
The new Chinese noodle product in the "Japanese Hospitality" series is supervised by Hara Rokukaku, a long-established Kyoto Gion establishment founded in 1685, and makes generous use of black shichimi pepper as a condiment. The noodles are both moderately springy and smooth, while the rich soy-based soup combines pork and chicken with the umami of aromatic vegetables. Adding the separately packaged seasoning oil containing black shichimi pepper broadens the flavor.
The toppings include minced soy protein, and the product is designed to pair well with the flavor of the condiment overall. The rehydration time is 3 minutes, designed to preserve the aroma of the black shichimi pepper.
