Origin of the word ramen

The word "ramen" originates from the Chinese term "" (lāmiàn), which means "pulled noodles." Japanese immigrants to China in the 19th century brought back the concept of noodles and adapted it to their own culinary traditions. The dish became popular in Japan as "ramen" () and was initially served as a Chinese-Japanese fusion cuisine. The original Chinese dish was called "" (lāmiàn), which refers to noodles served with a light broth, whereas Japanese ramen typically features a rich and savory broth. Despite the difference, both dishes are beloved for their comforting and flavorful noodles. The term "ramen" has since become an integral part of Japanese food culture, with various regional variations and toppings adding to its popularity.
