Mitsuwa will definitely have it. My family uses the one in Sunnyvale in california. :O
try a few brands and see which you like
I tried different kinds of ramen according to price (since i cant read japanese)
the 5 ramen packs for 5 dollars = really good, soup base was excellent. **bastard roommates ate like 2 of them**
Sopporro = 37 cents or something = Not bad for its price, fits the better standard than the "top ramen"
Shin Ramyun = Spicey and delicous.. good if you can take it.
Also if people add beef or "chasu" what exactly is it? I mean I can just get any beef. - Oh and if you know the sauce they used to cook chasu in at shin sen gumi (japanese place in So.Cal thats REALLY REALLY good, man hakata-men so delicous) pls share!

try using antifreeze. it worked once for me

well I got hungry while reading this thread

I like it practically uncooked, just heat up the water and put in the noodles as it stops boiling. Nice and firm.

ah i miss the dry snack packs that were hugely popular in china. the noodle is crisp and easy to break, and there is a bag of flavor that you would put on the dry noodle. it works like potato chips but only better and more flavorful.
|
Does anyone make their own flavoring rather than using the packet that comes with the noodles? like make a large batch of soy sauce, salt, green onion, chili pepper, etc. (or something completely different?) and use it for a whole box of ramen?
Once I added milk to my ramen. It ended up being a little creamy/thicker soup I think.
|
Lazy way:
I use to crush ramen in the bag with my hands or something hard like a hammer or handweight if i had it lying around. Put the crushed ramen pieces in a bowl and season with the flavoring provided or any other kind of powder seasoning. Mix and eat with spoon. It gets really dry and sometimes the seasoning can get a little strong but it was quick and easy  .
Current method:
I put my ramen in this square bowl and put the flavoring on top. Then i pour bowling water on top and cover for like few minutes. Afterward, add balsamic vinegar and sesame seed oil.

soup - I'd probably try to make some kind of miso-base soup with variations from online recipes I can surely find. I prefer miso base over shoyu base.

Shin ramen + green onion + egg
|
Manchurian Sesame Sauce Cold Ramen.
Easy preparation in under 10 minutes.
Ingredients:
1 can of Sesame Sauce. 2 table spoon of Sesame oil. 1 table spoon of chili oil. shredded cucumbers , diced garlics and hand pulled noodles.
toss them together like a salad and there you have it!
Note: Put the cucumbers and the noodles in the fridge to cool for a bit if you really want to taste the cold in cold noodles. ~_~.

omg ok I just made some omg omg omg <3 <3 IT'S SO GOOD.

How much water is the right amount of water? This is the only point I'm missing before experimentation.
|
I used asparagus, which I added straight to the boiling noodles, and then I sauteed mushrooms and tomatoes in Mirin and Sesame Oil.
I LOVED the noodles, but I couldn't finish the broth. It's just toooo savory or something; I can't really handle it. The brand I used wasn't spicy, a friend got it for me at Mitsuwa (I couldn't go this weekend) but it was really good. Didn't even use any meat this time, but the egg turned out great and it was super tasty and filling.

Yeah, I'm not sure how healthy this is, but I eat Shin Ramen quite often. Sometimes I use two soup base for just one pack. Can't get enough, I think I need to stop lol.
