Everyone eats instant noodle. Someone said that before, I think its Newton or Planck who said it (kidding). Anyway, instant noodle is like the unsung hero. I think we should talk more about it, considering this is a food forum!

Let’s discuss what is your fave brand, and how did you cook it. I many of my friends cook them differently, some claim that their technique makes the noodle nicer. You know, double boil it, or put the flavouring into it when it’s half cook. Whatever lol.

I’ll start with mine:

Fave Instant Noodle: Indomie, Chicken Curry Flavour

How I prepare them: Well, I boil the noodle, then carefully pour it into the bowl with flavouring in it. That way you wont dilute the flavour with too much liquid (tadaa!).

I love the sesame smell. Through out my years many people has been telling me, "Eat too much instant noodle is bad for your health. As long as eat everything anything in Moderation, you are fine.

Best instant noodles I ever had....

I was on a topo mission during Ex Crescendo.

I cooked two packets of Maggi curry in my mess tin (with as little water as possible) and dumped one whole can of some Thai-brand chilli tuna into it.

Damn shiok.

The man who was death SG

it's best to put in the soup powder after cooking the noodle if not there'll be the white white boil boil thingies floating on top...

ekotok SG

ohhhh i love the nissin sesame noodle too! thats awesome lol. my friend once told me to know whether the noodle is 'just nice' you use chopstick and lift it up, if its straight then its ok, if its still 'curly' then its still undone. lol you can tell he eats too much. but maybe can try Saltiga's method to make it better

Nong sim, korean brand quite good

Junyang700 SG

Egg only! LOL...

meltz SG

i prefer plain instant noodle .. no egg or nothing

first put soup powder when the water boil then put the noodle .. i dont like soggy noodle so i wont cook it for so long

the reason for putting soup powder first is that .. when a noodle turn from dry to cooked it will absorb water so if cooked in soup .. it will also abosrb the soup flavour ... if cooked in plain water then add the soup powder .. the noodle will be tastless :mrgreen:

ekotok SG

But even if you cook the noodle with the soup powder, it wont make much difference right?

Take chasoba for example. Its just boiled noodle with no flavour. but the flavour comes from dipping it into the special soya sauce accompanying it (and it taste friggin awesome). so whether you put the soup powder into the boiling noodle or not, shouldnt make so much diff. or is there? lol i never actually paid so much attention into it

SevenEleven SG

I prefer myojo noodles. the chicken tang mien. I'm also for the kimchi noodle now.
