I tried 'Nissin's BLACK Donbei Black Kitsune Udon Coarsely Ground Black Pepper and Rich Black Soy Sauce Soup,' which features a pitch-black soup with a black pepper aroma.

The package design emphasizes black.

The ingredients are like this.

The calorie content was 388 kcal per cup.

When I opened the lid, all that was inside was the liquid soup, fried tofu, and noodles.

Pour boiling water over it and wait 5 minutes.

After waiting for 5 minutes, I opened the lid. At this stage, it looks the same as a regular Donbei.

The liquid soup added later is pitch black and thick. When added to the boiling water, it gives off a faint, distinctive peppery aroma.

Add the liquid soup and stir with chopsticks to finish.

While regular Donbei has a slightly yellowish, clear soup, Nissin's BLACK Donbei Black Kitsune Udon with Coarsely Ground Black Pepper and Rich Black Soy Sauce Soup is literally pitch black. When you sip it, you can clearly smell the black pepper, but it's not spicy or pungent. It just has the spicy flavor of black pepper. It's said to be a combination of dark soy sauce with bonito and chicken stock, and while the umami of the soy sauce is clearly noticeable, the seafood flavor is overwhelmed by the aroma of black pepper, making it difficult to discern.

The noodles are chewy and smooth.

The fried tofu is the same as the regular Donbei, and when you chew it, the sweet sauce seeps out.
