    Could be black garlic oil or burnt scallion oil. Both are delish

    It looks like :the thing that’s been said 15 times, just so you know that I know:

    I feel like OP has been living under a rock. This has been a thing for several years now, maybe close to a decade. I’ve never thought this kind of question would pop up. Is this the first time you tried tonkatsu ramen? Virtually all menus I’ve seen with black garlic oil would explicit say it is with a picture of it to even miss what it is.

    Mmm…I love Tonkatsu with Black garlic oil. Luckily, my local Kroger carries it.

    Mayu is the secret to amazing tasting Tonkatsu.

    Black blood of the earth.
    You mean oil.
    No I mean black blood of the Earth

    While it’s certainly not traditional and others are probably right about it being garlic oil:

    I really like a bit of pumpkin seed oil for my Tonkotsu broths. It fits quite nicely as well.
