Korean Noodle Soup Powder for Ramen, Spicy Taste 10.05oz

I didn’t want all the calories and carbs but still wanted to enjoy the taste of NongShim Spicy Shin Ramyun substituting shiratake noodles. At first, I was a little disappointed because when I used the amount required to get the flavor intensity right, they were too spicy. Mixing this 50/50 with beef bouillon powder gives a more intense flavor at a more acceptable level of spice.

This stuff is a life-saver when I’m craving a hot, spicy Korean soup. It’s got the perfect kick of heat and makes any ramen taste rich and flavorful in seconds. Perfect for chilly days when I just want something warm and comforting. Just mix it in, and boom—instant deliciousness. Can’t live without it!

I can confirm what a few other reviewers have noted: that this seasoning powder is a good substitute for Nongshim brand Shin spicy ramen noodle seasoning. While the flavor is not absolutely 100% identical, it is very close, and the the spicy/hotness level is very similar also.For fans of the Nongshim spicy ramen noodle packs, this seasoning offers a nice alternative option to: 1) buy plain Nissin or Maruchan ramen noodle packs to use with this seasoning and save a good amount per pack over Shin noodle packs (30+% or more), or 2) get a very similar spicy flavor with other kinds of your favorite noodles that Nongshim does not commonly offer (e.g., Hong Kong-style thin noodles).If you really like the spicy flavor of Shin ramen, you can get this seasoning and save money, or get the flavor with other varieties of noodles you might like better - give it a try either way, and see for yourself!

Good soup.

Add on Korean soup, it kicks out full of good and yummy spicy taste.

Bought this item a few times! Love the texture and the taste is just right for me!

Tasty! I love the option of being able to use my low carb noodles with this and feel like I’m eating Shin ramen. I feel it’s not as spicy, so I add a little extra hot sauce or fresh peppers from my garden. Very similar! This is also good as a base for kimchi stew and other Korean soups.

I’ve been buying this same seasoning for about a year or two now, while it is great and tastes really good, the price has gone up gradually by 3 dollars since. I get that inflation and all that has raised the prices, but charging basically 10 dollars for the same pack of seasoning (or even less) is crazy. I don’t think I’ll continue purchasing seasoning from this brand unless it’s on sale.
