## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can Kansui powder be used on meat?**
A: Kansui Powder is meant to be dissolved into water that's then used to make ramen noodle dough. It's not a seasoning.

It might have a tenderizing effect on meat similar to baking soda. If you'd like to experiment with this I'd recommend reading about meat "velveting" with baking soda.

Thank you for your question!

**Q: Which type would be the best for a newbie ramen maker?**
A: Type 2 is a great go-to for almost any type of ramen. If there's only one kansui powder in your pantry this is the best one to have.

Type 3 will make the dough easier to work with and could be a good option for someone just getting started. If you'd like the experience to be a bit easier you could also get started with Type 3.

*by R***. on January 3, 2026*

Is what it says it is and does what it needs to do. Is not fast to dissolve in cold water, felt better mixing in warm-hot water to avoid kansui clumps in the noodles.
