Transform instant noodles into tsukemen! You won't believe these delicious dipping noodles started from dried noodles. Give it a try!
Recipe background:
When I tried Maruchan Seimen, made with their fresh noodle method, I was impressed by the chewy texture and great taste. I thought these noodles would be perfect for tsukemen, so I came up with this recipe!

Maruchan Seimen is recommended because it has a chewier texture than other instant noodles.
