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.

All I have to say is they were 🤩

It'd be cool if you did a followup video where you take all 3 Momofuku noodles and figure out simple but delicious ways to add to them. Some recommended toppings, protein, maybe even alterations to the sauce (I know David Chang adds some honey and soy sauce to his soy & scallion noodles sometimes).

Thank you for reviewing these brands! I've been so curious about all of these different brands.

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~

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.

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.

i didn’t have the chili crunch so i used red pepper flakes and it was delicious!

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 bought a bunch of the Immi, very disappointed, I'm actually ok with the texture of the noodles but the broth doesn't stick to them at all so they never have flavor. I even made a spicy peanut noodle dish with them but the sauce wouldn't stick which was strange. On a side note, could you do a video on your composting process? I live in the northeast and have some land now so would like to compost but not sure how and will it work in winter. Thanks!

I actually always have instant ramen in my kitchen. I use them for easy to make fried noodles. I will use maybe half the seasoning packet sometimes. Or if I’m not feeling well I’ll just make some good old fashioned cheap instant ramen soup 😊

I would recommend the Japanese frozen brand Myojo. They have a variety of flavors, all good. As close to Japanese restaurant quality as you can get in the US. They have Miso, tonkotsu, soy, and salt flavors. All good,,, but my favorite is the miso flavor, of which they have 2: miso and spicy miso. Give it a try! 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.

I was looking at the Momofuku noodles earlier today. What made me put them down was the lack of a description of the flavors. Now I’m going to give them a go.

Hi Mike. Love your content! How would you go about making a broth for, let's say, the Momofuku noodles, since the flavor packet is liquid? Wouldn't it just dilute it? I love Shin ramen and what I can do with the broth.

Anchovy paste or fish sauce are my go toos 😊

I think instant noodles have their place. I am gluten free and do use some instant noodles. I like the Lotus Foods Rice Ramen and the Vietnamese Brown Rice Noodles. Neither of them comes with sauce, bullion or anything like that. I use my Homemade bone broth I keep on hand. Even-though I find these noodle quite nice my favorite are still my son's Chana Besan noodles that he makes for me.

The enthusiasm… when someone’s reaction and feedback move you to want to buy something that you wouldn’t, you know this man is special.

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.

A-Sha noodles are my favorite!! And you can get a big box of them for pretty cheap at Costco!

I was surprised how reasonably priced the Momofuku noodles were. Much more than Top-Ramen but definitely in line with what you'd pay for a better brand at an Asian market. Mike's Mighty Good are also pretty reasonable, although the portion is smaller. For me, the portion is probably just right though. My husband would likely want more. I'd definitely have leftovers of the Momofuku if I was just making them for lunch for myself. Definitely going to try these if the shipping isn't prohibitive.

If you think of instant noodles as dried noodles and add ingredients as shown on the package ( in a sense recreating the dish ), you will have a nutritional meal. Or just add whatever protein and vegetable that you like to your instant noodles. I stopped eating instant noodles with just the seasoning when I was 13. I'm 63 now. In some instances, I sauté the proteins first before adding water for the soup and then whatever else I fancy. Lots of combinations with different meats and vegetables, resulting with a different noodle dish but originating from the same instant noodle base. And nutritious. And you can use the cheaper ones too😁
