What noodles do you recommend for ramen? I’ve never made it.
I just use packet 2 minute noodles without the stock packet supplied. I save those for adding to stews & soups. I like wiggly noodles, they stay on the fork better imo. The noodles that come with Shin Ramyun Black and Shin Ramyun Red are extra good but there's a lot of them in each packet. Which means enormous servings for each noodle cake. For just me, the ordinary Maggi 2 minute noodles are perfectly good and a better amount for my preferred serving size. You can get specialised ramen noodles that are not wiggly, some in interesting flours like buckwheat or barley, but I like the ordinary Maggi ones better. But that's just me - a real ramen expert would probably be quite scornful of my choices.
