That mayo/egg/garlic hack is definitely a game-changer for soup-based ramen. One of my favourite hacks is to use the Buldak 2x spicy chicken ramen, and add a spoonful of peanut butter to it, and I'll sometimes put a bit of Gochujang in there, but I'm definitely gonna try that full-on peanut sauce now. I also like to top mine with some sichimi togarashi or some spicy chili crisp. Josh from Mythical Kitchen put out a video a couple years ago with his hacks, and one worth trying is the French onion soup ramen. Delicious.

It's a total umami overload, but it's a nice treat once in a while. I'm a big spicy food guy, and the 2x Buldak has that perfect level of heat for me. If you put the sichimi togarashi or the chili crisp on and you're eating it with chopsticks, though, be careful. Slurping a piece of chili to the back of your throat really sucks.

@@cbTimisacat The difference between 40 F and 70 F isn't going to make a huge difference when the amount of volume you're trying to cook through is 1 egg. You're adding 212ish F water to it. If you're concerned, just add a bit of extra water to ensure the eggs are cooked, but in the US raw eggs are really not a concern anymore. The commonly cited reason you're not supposed to eat raw cookie dough is because of the eggs, but it's actually because of the flour. Raw flour can be nasty, nasty stuff. Raw eggs, not so much.

The peanut butter and mayo/egg/garlic recipes have literally changed the way I snack. I thought that Ramen was just a salty thing to satisfy a craving, but now with a touch more effort I can make just a very satisfying bowl of food if I need a rapid lunch or something. Amazing!

Thank you for all these great ramen noodles variations. I have a bunch of ramen in my pantry and everyone in my house is sick of plain ramen, so am going to try all your recipes this week to reignite our love for ramen. Adding ginger ale to the 7th sauce was a nice touch. Some Koreans (including me) add 7up to the gochujang sauce for bibim naengmyeon, and this totally reminded me of that.

I saw your channel grow. I feel like I've grown with you because you're a great chef. Thank you for teaching us. BTW, my husband and I love the rosemary salt. If you know, you know, oh, and we love you too 😘

Man i just wanted to say the production quality has increased so much ! we love to see it! as always great video

LMAOOOO at the attack on the fridge. I'm sure it's been explained but watching you go at it makes me chuckle.

This is great!!! The ramen looks amazing, I will definitely try each. But, the fridge kicking just throws this over the top - so good! 😂

Amazing tips! For the garlic, I have been sprinkling some salt on it and crushing/smearing it with the knife to get the oils activated and that really enhances the garlic flavor! I love garlic lol

Always love seeing you’re vids man!! I come here just to watch them just because after work!

Loved this style of video! I will definitely be trying some of these, thank you so much for these amazing ideas!

Love Love Love the Screaming in the Pillow!! It's Great!!

Love this style of video - reminds me of how mom used to make Hawaiian saimen for us as kids with a bunch of toppings we could pick and choose from. Loved it. I fry small pieces of bacon, get crispy and save half the grease for tomorrow’s eggs - then add chopped mushrooms to the pan to sweat. Meanwhile have an egg or two in one of those $8 hard/soft egg cookers and make them just slightly more cooked than soft boiled. After the mushroom sweat, I break up the ramen and put in the pan, then powder pack, a small spoon of kimchi and water. Cook for a minute or two until I can break up the noodles. On top I put three hands full of 50/50 salad mix (spring greens and spinach), and finish cooking. Usually I’ll add some slices of colby jack, which makes it a creamy broth. And the medium boiled eggs on top. Amazing. Need to add peanut oil next time!

The Peanut Butter sauce one looks so bomb. I do something similar, (too lazy for minced garlic, usually,) but it will jump up in flavor and texture if you garnish with furikake (A Japanese dry condiment, that is a mix of seaweed, spices, dried fish, and other delicious things,) or, even better, Everything Bagel Seasoning. It has sesame seeds, dry garlic and onion, and big crystal salt, it's UH-mazing!

The peanut butter dish was so good, I'm going to make ramen again (2x in one day) with the basic recipe that has garlic mayo sauce. it REALLY steps up the game on such a cheap, simple staple!

My primary ingredient in ramen is a lot of cabbage, sliced thin, cooked with the noodles. I usually add other ingedients (leftover meat, shrimp, seasoned taco meat, whatever}, and 'float' a couple eggs on top. I like the yolks runny. Top with scallions and cheese if desired.

Best ramen hack video I've seen, great concepts and you actually did a good job keeping the primary two ramen concepts intact: speed and cost! Learning how to temper eggs is an "advanced" culinary technique that is very easy, and it's a great hack to make things creamy without dairy.

You read my mind, Sonny! I love shoyu tamago and a bit of fish sauce too! I recently found shin ramyun Green in my local grocery, it's a bit more laid back with mushrooms and tofu than the original. Shin black is still fire though! Scallions, cheese, kewpie, kimchi, mushrooms , everything bagel...the possibilities are endless!❤️

When you mentioned the egg, mayo, garlic trick I thought, it would be cool to make carbonara-style ramen. Low and behold you did it too! Always look forward to your content. ❤

DUDE! I absolutely LOVE your videos! Just watched your cottage pie video and the growth from there to this video... Wow! Keep rocking!

When food is just so freaking good, there are no words, but you *feel* things in your soul and just have to let it out. 😊

I just tried that first one with regular mayo, diced ham, a touch of sesame oil, and some leftover pico. Using the same bowl to scramble and cook the egg made preping it super easy and it came out delicious!

My husband bought me my first noodle bowl and the spoon/chopsticks and I adore ramen so I'm looking forward to trying these out Thank you for the great ideas and a really fun and entertaining video and my favorite drink is Ginger Ale so this is a great fusion idea

0:45 for any egg boiling operation, I highly recommend piercing the shell at the blunt end of the egg using an egg piercer. Inside the blunt end, there is an air pocket. When you put an egg into hot water, the air in this pocket pressurizes due to rapidly heating up to boiling temperature. This pressure can cause the egg to crack. Piercing the shell lets the air bubble out. By letting the air bubble out, not only do you prevent egg cracking due to overpressure from the air being heated, but letting the air out also lets the egg expand as it cooks. A fresh egg should fill out that divot completely so your peeled egg doesn't have that flat spot at the blunt end. Piercing the shell also makes the egg easier to peel. When you quench the egg in ice water to arrest the cooking, the cooling of the air in that pocket sucks water into that pocket, and that makes it easier to peel the egg, because water ends up getting between the egg and the shell.

Eye am surprised you did not add coconut milk to a spicy ramen. Like Chile flavoured or that Buldak (super spicy, don't use the whole packet of spicy syrup), then some granulated ginger, lime juice, and garnish with cilantro. If you want, you can also add honey roasted cashews, broccoli and chicken. Granulated garlic and soy or teriyaki won't suck either. Eye live in a motel and cook with a microwave and toaster oven, and this is one of my favourite recipes. And, like The Dude, I always pull out a minute early.

This is cool.

I figured there would be too much snobbery to allow themselves to go there. Would love to see more videos like this for sure.
