Ramen Seasoning – Jacobsen Salt Co.

The ginger and garlic hit first, then that yeast extract gives it this deep, savory umami finish that lingers just right. Sprinkled it over a simple bowl of udon and it tasted like I'd been simmering broth for hours. The sea salt from Trapani melts in evenly, too, no gritty clumps left behind.

The white pepper comes through warm and spicy without any burn, and the yeast extract gives it that savory depth you'd expect from a much heavier broth. I've been shaking it into plain rice and eggs all week, and it's honestly made my lazy dinners taste like I actually tried.

Saw this in a friend's kitchen and had to grab my own—the white pepper comes through at the end with just enough warmth, and it's made my instant noodles taste like a proper meal. I keep reaching for it on eggs too.
