kimchi ramen by nongshim
so i guess packet noodles isn't the most creative way to kick off my vegan series. i have let you down and i am sorry, but let me tell you this. i have tried and tested almost every brand of packet noodles in the minh phat supermarket on nicholson st, richmond - an asian grocery cave - to single out the best brand of packet noodles that passes the vegan gate. that's 47 packets i went through!!
the kimchi ramen noodles by nongshim have the perfect curves, are thin and slender, yet will hold it's shape when cooked which means they don't break up too easily into rice sized bits. the texture is comparable to hand thrown noodles which is quite firm and chewy. the packet of red flavouring certainly packs a punch of chilli and pepper, complemented by the perfect amount of salt. it was like they had collected all the tears from masterchef and added it to the mix, drop by drop until they were bang on the money.
now i've done all the hard work for you, memorise this packet for when you're next contemplating which out of the 47 packet noodles is the one to go for. vegan or not vegan - this is it.
now i'm off to redeem myself.
