The first non-fried type has appeared in Koike-ya's snack brand "Karamucho". "Karamucho Z," which bears the "Z" meaning "ultimate," will be released in advance at convenience stores nationwide on July 14. General sales start from July 28th.


Karamucho is a long-selling brand that was launched in 1984 and celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. It has been developed in pursuit of both "spicy" and "deliciousness".

The "non-fried type" that will be introduced this time uses the " raw potato kongari manufacturing method " that was jointly developed with Nissin Foods, which has non-fried technology for cup noodles, and is said to be a karamucho that is not fried in oil as it is delicious.

There are two flavors, "hot chili flavor" with "astringency" added to make it mature, and "dry chili flavor" with Japanese pepper and black pepper to add sharpness and richness. You can feel "satisfaction" and "safety" with one cup.
