how do you cook ramen noodles?

[zixxer]

I used to put in *just* enough water to cover the noodles, add the seasoning packet, and boil until no more water. I think it was really unhealthy.


Now I boil the noodles, add seasoning about 30sec before done, and drain most of the broth.


I'm eating them right now with some sour cream and tabasco... not bad at all...

 

[MartyMcFly3]

I dont. Ramen tastes like fecal matter.

 

[iamme]

sour cream?

never tried that before.....

btw, unless you're using fat free sour cream, you're adding a bunch of fat right back into the ramen 🙂

i boil water... add noodles.. cook for 3 minutes... drain some water so it's not too soupy... add flavor packet... eat

 

[ElFenix]

i've never drained them but i usually only eat ramen to clear up a cold. i buy shin ramen and that stuff is spicy. add some rooster sauce for the added kick. really works the sinuses.

 

[Ladies Man]

never thought about adding flavor packet last.

I might have some more.. what flavor do you recommend?

 

[OverVolt]

Put just enough water to cocver the noodles and then microwave them for 1:30, let them sit for 2minutes, pour out the water and add seasoning

 

[psydancerqt]

i add the flavor last so i dont have to wash my pot... 😀 in college dorm, i use a "hot pot" that boils water in like a minute... i like chicken flavor. dont know if i've ever tried the others

that's how i do it. just don't drink all the soup if you want to cut down on the sodium

 

[zixxer]

beef, oriental, or chicken?

and then you're still getting 200% of your daily sodium intake every spoonful

yep. And I add nori (seaweed) into it. About two sheets per package of ramen. Yummy!

 

[Eli]

I don't.. :disgust:

 

[0roo0roo]

i toss in left overs, or frozen veggies, and i useenough water that its soupy.

 

[Kermy]

Make ramen in water w/o seasoning, drain then put salsa in and mix.

actually its 32% per serving or 760mg 2 servings pe package. 64% 1520mg of sodium

 

[pray4mojo]

I add the packet while it's cooking.

 

[zixxer]

yum. I couldn't help but add sour cream and tobasco. yum yum yum.

im gonna get fat, lol

 

[bcterps]

Salsa? Sour Cream? Are we talkin about the same thing here? 😉

 

[Adul]

chicken broth
cilantro
stips of beef, chicken, or shrimp
bean sprouts
lemon juice
fish sauce
garlic (special garlic stuff my mom makes)

good stuff 🙂

 

[cressida]

No that stuff is not very healthy :disgust: makes me, well it's just unhealthy 😀

don't drink the soup, and you cut down the sodium big time. the soup has no nutrtional value anyways
