Basically, it's just about preparing the broth.

For example, have you ever eaten beef noodles at some high-end restaurants?

The broth of many signature beef noodle soups, while not as amazing as they claim, is noticeably clearer and less rich, and the aroma is not particularly strong, but rather a light fragrance.

Tonkotsu ramen is actually made with a broth made from pork bones...

Ah!

"Humph!"

"Let me tell you."

"Who in this world can compare to the cooking of Saiba Joichiro?"

"Never mind, this is the judging process, I'll just have to try a bite!"

After that, the judges began to taste the food.
