How to Improve Ramen: What Do You Add to Yours?
We love ramen, and I have a simple way to teach you how to improve ramen. Ramen is very cheap and can be a filling meal. There are many ways to improve instant ramen by adding things to it, but I’ll be sharing my favorite way to make it tastier.
1. Choose your ramen flavor
I'm going to show you how I make my noodles. I like the beef ones better, but they've been out at Walmart every time we've gone the past few weeks so I am starting with some chicken-flavored ramen.
2. Add some veggies
I get this at Walmart, too, the tricolor coleslaw. I add just like, a handful or so to the boiled water; it turns blue because of the cabbage in here. Also, I'm going to add some mushrooms.
3. Cook the noodles
I break up my ramen into four when it's still in the packaging,
just because it makes the noodles easier to eat when they're broken up a little bit.
On the package, it tells you how much water to cook the ramen in. However, I just put as much as I want and then pour some out before the end. Get the water to a rolling boil.
Do not overcook your noodles because then they will be soggy.
I wait to put the seasoning packet in until the end when I've poured out some of the water.
4. Choose your sauces
I like to add Mongolian-style barbecue sauce and some Korean chili sauce. This Mongolian-style barbecue sauce is from Walmart, but the one that I really like is from Aldi.
I add about a tablespoon and a half of the Mongolian-style barbecue sauce and half a tablespoon to a tablespoon of the chili sauce.
