Ingredients

Water slightly more than directed
0:25
~1 min
2
Add slightly more water than the package directs. More broth looks more appetizing and gives you plenty to drink. Adjust the thickness and seasoning later.
0:33
3
Add the umami seasonings. Along with the included powdered soup base, add a chicken bone soup base such as Weipa (Shantan) and Ajinomoto. Combining multiple sources of umami creates a synergistic effect for a deeper flavor.
0:47
4
Add the instant mashed potato (potato flakes) to recreate Tenkaichi's signature thick, viscous broth. Use about 20 g for standard richness, or 30 g for maximum richness.
0:58
5
Whisk everything together thoroughly. It will still feel a bit thin at this point, but the potato flakes will gradually absorb the water and the starch from the noodles will dissolve out, so it will thicken naturally.
1:37
6
Once it comes to a boil, add the noodles and cook for about 2 minutes. Gently loosen the noodles as they cook so they don't stick together or break.
2:03
~2 min
7
Turn off the heat when the time is up. The broth will already be quite thick at this point. Add the reserved powdered soup base and stir lightly.
2:13
8
Add the milk. The milk adds richness and smoothness.
2:21
9
Turn the heat back on and warm the broth. Once it reaches that thick, Tenkaichi-like consistency, stir well again so the seasoning is even, then turn off the heat when it returns to a boil.
2:26
~1 min
10
Transfer to a bowl. Arranging the noodle strands with chopsticks instantly makes it look like a restaurant dish.
2:38
11
Top with chashu pork, green onion, and menma as desired.
2:47
12
Drizzle the included seasoning oil over the top at the end so the aroma doesn't cook off, and it's done. A sprinkle of pepper tightens up the flavor if you like.
