Soy & Scallion Ramen Noodles by David Chang, 5 Count (Pack of 1) Air-Dried Vegan Instant Noodles with 11g of Plant Based Protein

These are on the expensive side of instant noodles. I didn't want to like them, I really didn't. I don't like spending that much on instant noodles. I don't like needing to buy my instant noodles online. But for these? I'll make an exception. The noodle texture is good. They're wider than ramen and, in my opinion, are better than most instant ramen noodles. The sauce is a nice balance of sweet, savory, and salty, which I love; a lot of instant noodles mixes are too salty or have no nuance, but these have a pretty balanced flavor profile for how simple and quick they are to make. Add some sauteed chicken or tofu and veggies, and you have yourself a pretty good meal that only takes a few minutes to make. I like adding onions, bean sprouts, and broccoli most. So... Despite my reservations about buying these--I was literally eyeing them for months before biting the bullet--thry are worth the price. They are worth the waiting for delivery. And I will be buying them again.

This is brilliant I want again….

EDITED TO ADD: You guys know this is a dry ramen, right? I'm seeing people say it has weak flavor & the pictures show it in soup, like people didn't drain the ramen. A dry ramen doesn't sit in broth, like your typical ramen does. It has a small packet of sauce that you toss with the drained noodles and that's it. No added water, hence, the term dry ramen. It's very tasty when made as directed. If you add water or don't drain your noodles & just dump the sauce packet in the water, of course it will taste bad. It's supposed to look like the picture on the front of the package -- just the DRAINED noodles with the sauce packet. This is a different kind of ramen than say, Maruchan & the like. REVIEW These are seriously so good. The taste is almost like chow mein. I add extra green onions (it comes with a pack of dried green onions) and cut shrimp so it's thinner & smaller, so I can have the taste of shrimp with every bite of noodles. I also add some sesame seeds, sesame oil, and some butter. You wouldn't think so, but the butter takes it over the top, making these noodles super silky. There's no heat to this at all, so when I'm cooking my shrimp, I add some chili oil to that & it's perfect. You could add veggies & stuff, but it would be dry since the sauce packet is really small. I mix the sauce with the noodles & get them all coated evenly before I add in my shrimp. And I cook this all in one pot. I'll use a saucepan & cook the shrimp together with the packet of dried onions, the chili oil, a little sesame oil, and my fresh green onions. I move that to my serving plate, then add 4 cups of hot water to the saucepan to cook the noodles. When done, I sauce up my noodles with the sauce packet, then add the shrimp mixture. If you're having this as a main dish, each little pack will serve one. Let's be realistic 😂 I'm a tiny little bird lady & it's so good I can eat 9/10s of it by myself. If having as a side dish, it'll serve 2. And don't be misled by "ramen" because it's not soupy like the cheap ramen you can buy. It literally looks like the pic on the front of the package. Anyway, this is so good. You can't go wrong with it, even if you don't get fancy & add things. SO GOOD. I have it on auto-ship & I'm here to order more because I can't wait until my next subscription shipment 😂

Great paired with veggies and Japanese barbecue sauce

They're nothing to write home about and absolutely not worth the insane price they are now - £17?!. There's no denying the noodle quality is superior to most others available, albeit a small portion for the price. The sauce however is such a let down. It needs a lot of additions to make it even slightly interesting.
