And what about those ingredients that go into the ramen noodles? Simple, it’s flour, water, salt and kansui or sodium bicarbonate. Ramen noodles are traditionally called an “alkaline” noodle because the reaction of the ingredients makes it alkaline, or the opposite of acidic. This is also what give the ramen noodle its characteristic color that is slightly yellow.
