I am SO SORRY!!! I just wanted to try a clickbaity title! Never done it before! Feel sick now… 🤣😭
Anyway, when your ramen seem cooked - which in my case is alway a minute or so BEFORE the instructed time - you pour 'em out into a sieve and let all the boiling water run off. You then COOL the noodles under cold, running water. This makes the noodles more elastic, but not quite al dente. After having thoroughly rinsed the noodles, you put them in the bowl of your choice and THEN add the spice! Stir - BUT DO NOT SHAKE - and EAT.
Over and out.
cold noodles? and throwing out the broth liquid???
Yes! The “broth” is just boiled noodle water at this point though. :)
look. I get annoyed at all the extra work of package ramen vs cup of noodles.
Don’t even. GOD I miss a good cup of curry flavored Nisshin noodles on my way home from band practice 🥲🥡
I only put mine in for a minute and I eat them crunchy with the water drained and the mix sprinkled on as I take bites. Glad to know there are more people similar to me on this.
Oh, nice! I wouldn’t eat them crunchy, but cold noodles are amazing. During summer in Japan, they are a lifesaver too. 🥵🍜
Such blatant lickbait. In a good way!
Only thing missing is an oversaturated, oversharpened, sensationalistic image of me looking in awe at a pot of boiling water, noodles and spice.
I add the seasonings after cooking but don’t drain it. I like to let the noodles keep absorbing the hot liquid and get softer.
That is litterally the WORST thing I know of, when it comes to noodles. They should be elastic but chewy, like rubber. But we are all different, and we are all good*. 🤣❤️
