Kita no Donbei Kitsune Udon (Hokkaido) – Instant Udon with Rich Kombu Broth

Hokkaido Exclusive! Special Edition 'Kita no Donbei Kitsune Udon'

Bringing the flavors of Hokkaido straight to your cup.

Kitsune Udon is one of Japan’s soul foods, a classic dish loved for centuries since the Edo period. The combination of sweet, simmered fried tofu and rich umami-packed broth has been a staple in Japanese homes. Now, Nissin’s 'Donbei' brings you that beloved tradition with a special Hokkaido twist—'Kita no Donbei Kitsune Udon'.

🍜 What makes the Hokkaido version special?

Donbei is famous for adjusting its broth based on the region. Eastern Japan’s version has a bold, katsuobushi (bonito) flavor, while Western Japan’s is milder with kombu (kelp) dashi. The Hokkaido edition takes things up a notch! Made with plenty of Hokkaido-sourced kombu, the broth has a deep, natural umami that sets it apart.

🦊 The Star of Kitsune Udon: Fluffy Fried Tofu

Open the package, and you’ll see the highlight—a thick, fluffy piece of fried tofu (aburaage). Simmered in soy sauce, sugar, and dashi, it has that signature Japanese sweet-savory flavor. The tofu soaks up the broth, and with just one bite, you’ll experience an explosion of rich umami goodness.

🍜 Chewy Noodles × Signature Broth

 The noodles have a slightly flat shape, giving them a satisfyingly chewy texture that holds onto the broth perfectly. With every bite, the flavors of the soup spread across your taste buds. The Hokkaido kombu-based broth has a gentle sweetness and a warmth that seeps into your body, making you want to savor every last drop. It’s so good, you’ll forget it’s instant!

👉 How is this different from other Kitsune Udon?

✅ Hokkaido kombu dashi makes all the difference! Unlike other Donbei versions, this broth isn’t overly salty—it has a natural sweetness and a deep, lingering umami that keeps you coming back for more.
✅ Extra-thick fried tofu! Compared to regular cup udon, this one has a thicker, fluffier aburaage that absorbs the broth beautifully, creating a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
✅ Hokkaido-Exclusive & Hard to Get! You won’t find this at Amazon or Costco—even in Japan, it’s rare! We ship directly from Hokkaido, so grab yours before it’s gone!

🍳 Easy Upgrades for Even More Flavor!

• Add a pinch of shichimi spice to give the broth a bold, spicy kick. The mix of heat and umami is seriously addictive.

• Drop a raw egg into the hot soup and let it slowly cook to a creamy, silky texture. Stir it in for an even richer, smoother broth.

• Sprinkle some crispy tempura bits for extra crunch and depth, turning it into a restaurant-level bowl of udon.

🎁 Hokkaido in Every Bite

 The package alone tells you this is something special—featuring a beautifully golden, juicy piece of aburaage front and center. Just looking at it, you can almost taste the rich, umami-soaked texture. Whether you’re treating yourself or looking for the perfect gift for a fellow Japanese food fan, this Hokkaido-exclusive Kitsune Udon is a must-try!
