Japanese American here. I grew up on instant noodles. Have eaten them my entire life (over 50 years). I know a thing or two about instant noodles. The Korean brands are the best, and Nongshim - the makers of Shin Ramyun - is the gold standard. As a bonus, Nongshim is made here in the US. Although I will say those Momofuku noodles look pretty good.

No need to keep tasting! At first foam add 1/2 cup of cold water. Second foam they are done. Transfer to a coriander and rinse a little under cold water so the noodles do not get mushy, or sticky & retain a proper slippery texture. Shake excess water off. You can then keep them in the frig in a bowl, covered with a damp towel for several hours. Then make the soup with fresh water ( or make the soup in the bowl first, then drop rinsed noodles into remaining boiling water to start cooking them. Why? Often ramen noodles have oil on them & that oil can go rancid & soup isn’t authentically made in the left over starch noodle wate😢r.

Thank you for reviewing these brands! I've been so curious about all of these different brands. I've had to limit my sodium intake to half the recommended amount per day and have been on the hunt for alternative ramens ever since. My go-to option right now is chicken bone broth, Lotus Foods Rice Ramen (just the noodles), and a tablespoon of gochujang as a base for other toppings. But I've also been trying out more brands of pre-packaged things recently (wasn't a huge fan of Immi) and really want to try the Momofuku noodles and the Xiao Chi Jie noodles! They looked so good~

Hi, Mike, so many great cooking tips! I have been eating the Japanese instant noodles forever. My advice is cook the noodles, make sure you rinse in cold water to get rid of all the bad stuff and off flavors, don't use the flavor packet unless you are desperate. Now they are ready for soup, chow mein, throw in all your leftovers. Budget friendly.

Yeah that's the biggest issue I have with this video. Sure you would expect to spend a smidge more than like the most basic Maruchan for a better product but these are all massively overpriced and it's dumb to compare them when they are all on their own tier anyway. Maruchan: $3.68 for 12 servings, $0.31 a serving Momofuku: $13 for 5 servings, $2.60 a serving Mike's: $23.33 for 7 servings, $3.33 a serving Immi: $39.99 for 6 servings, $6.66 a serving Xiao Chi Jie: $44.99 for 4 servings, $11.25 a serving Obviously the one that costs $11.25 a serving is going to be better than the one costing $2.60 a serving, they aren't even on the same level. And that's not to even mention, that's the "most expensive" Maruchan price, you can buy a 24 serving pack on Amazon for only $6.24, $0.26 a serving. Who is going to pay ~$40 for 4-6 servings when they can pay $6 for 6x the amount of food. Yes the Maruchan is slightly less healthy but like, use less of the seasoning and load it full of veggies and proteins, that would be a way more cost effective way to make it healthier and taste more premium.

@@BrandonGiesing the relationship between cost and value gets murky depending on the persons economical status. Most would all at fine dining prices but to some, it’s a mere after thought and a part of life. The premise of instant noodle or convenience foods has taken on a new life with the explosion of work from home and wealth increase. Obviously the premium products have their market and they’re catering to that market. Supply meeting demand. Im not a picky eater. Tho gas like caviar will never touch my taste buds in this lifetime. Offered for free, I wouldn’t turn it down but it’s not a dining experience I am chasing; likewise for the $10 per serving noodles. If I want to get fleeced for a meal, I want ambiance to go with that.

About 6 bucks for a 3 pack, but they're also sold as 2 packs, IDK what the difference is as I have never purchased the 2 packs.

Was happy to see you review the Momofuku noodles in your newsletter since I just started eating them recently after ordering six packs of the soy & scallion and spicy soy ones. I have found them pretty boring. I like the actual noodles but they are definitely lacking in the flavor department on their own and I was thinking of how to add more flavor to them in a quick way. I'll have to try an egg and maybe some other Asian sauces from my pantry. I have really wanted to try the Xiao Chi Jie products, especially the soup dumplings, but I live in Toronto so I doubt they'd ship a freeze dried shipment here.

Before this video, I ate the exact thing you made and it’s killer. I also cooked and added chicken katsu, green onions, and cilantro. Killer combo.

the beijing zha jiang noodles are traditionally served with shredded cucumbers, carrot and radish (all raw to balance out the porky sweet bean sauce)

My go-to when I am out of food is grab a quick ramen pack (not the fancy kind), fry up aromatics with some veggies, dump it in the ramen and let it soak for a bit. Great for the nights when I am both low on ingredients, and feeling extremely lazy. Ironically this is what happened tonight.

Of course they should! Easy to amp up and just easy noodles to make. Watch a lot of Korean shows and oddly they’re always eating convenience store ramen. Hi kelvin!

The momofuku noodles are made by A-sha who also makes the hello kitty noodles. They are all pretty tasty. We add a scoop of peanut butter and make peanut noodles.

I would love to take something like this for lunch but don't have anywhere to really prepare food in my current work situation. Could these be prepared ahead of time? And how do they taste reheated? Or would they work well in a hot thermos?

I loved this video and have now subscribed but I don’t see how it’s instant if you have to boil noodles for 7 min. 😅😝 My go to is the Indomie Mi Goreng or the silver Mama Shrimp Tomyum packets.

Momofuku's Soy & Scallion sauce is to die for - I wish they sold it separately in bottles, since it's the best for chinese custard eggs and else. Would appreciate a recommendation if anyone found a readymade dupe or a recipe!

Here in India we get a brand of Instant noodles called Koka. And they make a ton of different flavors, right from Singapore Laksa, Spicy Sesame, Stir Fry flavoured to Pepper Crab. Probably the best instant noodles I've had.

Hey Mike, you should check out Sun Noodle. The noodles are freshly made weekly and shipped frozen. You can get them with or without a soup base. They have been a staple in my house and a good way to use extra ingredients in the fridge to make different ramen bowls or noodle dishes.

what i do is i take a broth cube (match your meat or boost the vegi taste) 3dl water "one brick of noodles" (you know what you like this is 1 portion) splash of fish sauce vegies (whatever you like) meat (not tried fish) boil the cube and water until dissolved, add the sauce, if you like me like to add "hard vegetables" like beat roots, carrots, or whatever you like is "cooked" now is the time to add them while boiling fine cut your vegies, put at the bottom of your bowl of choice, these are to be served "cold" right before the vegies are done, add the noodles cook as you like it pick up the noodles + vegies and place ontop the "cold" vegies pour over the broth + points for toasted sesame seeds and a fried egg easy squeezy

I am not surprised about the Momofuku being your favorite after you said that they had partnered with A-sha for the noodles. I stumbled across A-sha noodles in my attempt to find good vegan friendly ramen and they have a couple of flavors that are vegan and they are really tasty! They can be hard to find though.
