Hime Japanese Dried Ramen Ramyun Noodles 25.4 oz (720g) (Pack of 2)

I wanted to make homemade ramen, and honestly, I initially didn't care much about the noodles. These looked good and I threw them in. They ended up being the star of the entire dish. I didn't even want more of the soup, I wanted more noodles. I went and heated up more and just threw them into my bowl. They are super easy to make and heat up quickly to your desired temperature. They are the perfect thickness for any ramen soup you choose to make. Their flavor is out of this world. I don't care what ramen I make next, I need these noodles to be in it.

wasn't to sure on what this would be like. do to the shape of the noodles being completely foreign to anything i thought of as Ramen. they turned out great though. boiled a cup or so of water in the microwave. added these. let them sit. stirred occasionally. nuked them for another minute. kept them covered whenever they weren't cooking. once they absorbed all the liquid i ate them. it's like everything i ever wanted from Ramen, but could never find in the local stores. the texture was great. the flavor profile was greatmy most recent test was with sardines in oil. put the oil from the sardines in the microwave with a cup of water for three minutes. put the noodles in. let them set a little. then stirred them. covered them tightly. then let them sit for five minutes. they weren't quite ready. so i nuked them for another minute. gave them a good stir. covered them again. then let them sit another five minutes. stirred them then and they were readyas for the sardines i liberally coated them in garlic powder. then hot sauce. stirred them up lightly. then let them sit while the noodles were cooking. one the noodles were ready i mixed the sardines in. turned out a lot better then i thought it would. figured i would nope out. i only have a slight liking for fish. if stuff gets to fishy it isn't for me. but this turned out greatdefinitely buying these again and again. all while hoping the local stores start carrying them

Cooks quickly and tastes good! Comes with multiple bundles and is resealable which is nice.

I should have looked at the label before buying this. I've been balking at all of the store bought ramen packages (shin ramyun, etc) because of the sodium content. I thought most of that was in the flavor packets, and thus decided to make my own. I've fallen in love with a recipe that use two types of better than bullion, along with some korean chili flakes and a tiny bit of lite soy.So for the past week, i've been patting myself on the back for how i've reduced my sodium intake - calculating that maybe i had cut it in half. But good lord, LOOK AT THE PACKAGE! It's saying that these noodles alone are more than 2/3 of your daily sodium! Insane!Looking around, the variety of sodium in dried ramen noodles is crazy. Some are like 8%, some are 30%, and this is the pinnacle at 68%.As much as i love these noodles, i'm going to have to now try my hand at making my own. Or i have to switch to udon or something else.Anyway - these are wonderful noodles. They cook super fast, have a great chew to them, and taste great. But seriously, look at the label.

I Keep a package of these noodles always on hand for when I get the urge for ramen soup. I always have freeze dried veggies and packets of chicken in the pantry and a cup of water, handful of of veggies and meat and today! 5 minute Ramen with a homemade taste. Very satisfying.

Very good! Used in homemade ramen.

Very good

Yes, you CAN use them for instant noodle type soup, but you have to follow a few steps. We have a water cooler that does hot water; now, it's not boiling, but it's pretty damn hot, so short of throwing things in the microwave, it does the job with instant soup mixes, oatmeal, and cocoa.I was looking for a noodle that I could use to replace the cup of ramens I was eating occasionally (for better taste, less sodium, just generally trying to find a healthier option so I wouldn't feel so guilty eating them in the first place). Other reviews mentioned the saltiness and if you taste the noodle before cooking, it's pretty salty. I was experimenting with making it in a standard size coffee mug because that's about right for a small thing of soup.Anyway, a whole bundle will NOT fit in a cup. Don't even try. I can get about 2/3 of a bundle into one, snapping off short 2" sections from the bundle and putting them in upright. If it looks a too crowded in the cup, it probably is, especially since you need to take into consideration that the water still has to go in, along with anything you might want to add later, and the noodles will expand a little. Then I put the hot water from the water cooler in the cup and cover the cup (I don't really have anything suitable at work, so I just use a paper napkin and make sure it doesn't dunk into the water). Let stand about 4-6 mins., depending on how you like your noodles, and then drain the water. Not all of it, just most, so the noodles are still a little wet, but not swimming. It keeps them from sticking together. Draining gets rid of the majority of the salt and leaving a little behind makes sure there's still some of the starches from the noodles, along with the salt, that stays behind for flavor. I suppose if you wanted to get rid of even more of the salt, you could use cold water to rinse, but it's excessive for my personal tastes. Then I dump in my package of instant miso soup in the cup, fill with hot water, and let everything sit for a couple of minutes before eating.I've also tried it with the microwave, which gives you faster results and seems to cook the noodles a little better, but you have to watch it a little more because if the water boils, you'll have a noodle-y mess. Now I'm looking forward to working toward a full blown ramen, with the veggies and meats and different soup base flavors!
