Food Ingredients

Oriental Yeast Company was the first company in Japan to manufacture and market yeast for bread-baking. Our heritage began with the food industry, and we continue to produce top-quality, flavorful, healthy materials for bakers and chefs.  In Europe, OYC EU now offers ingredients to support the growing trend for ramen noodles; including:

  • Kansui powder
    Asian-style noodles without kansui powder tend to have an unpleasant, overly-soft texture. The addition of kansui creates a firmer, more appetizing al dente “bite.”
  • Noodle flour 
    High quality noodle flour, with a well balanced level of protein and water content, is a necessity for making Japanese ramen.  Our flour is available for small to mid-size restaurants and large scale noodle production.
  • Egg powder 
    For ramen noodles, egg powder provides coloring and texture.  Egg powder is another essential ingredient for your ramen noodles.
