      I've been adding cheese to my Ramen ever since I saw a video of Simon & Martina's where M raved about it. I don't use the plastic wrapped singles, but the deluxe American. It melts great & tastes better.

    • @IQzminus2
      @IQzminus2 Před 3 lety +50

      Yes, I’m so glad I decided to give American cheese in ramen a try after reading recipes from South Korean.
      A few years later, I also learned from another South Korean ramen recipe that adding a little less water and instead quite a bit of milk in the end (but while it is still boiling, when less than half the time is left) tastes similar to adding American cheese.
      Like surprisingly similar, especially in how it affects the flavour of the soup base, but a little milder and rounder of a taste.
      But definitely in the same family of flavours. So I switch between the two depending on what I’m in the mood for.
      I recommend giving it a try to anyone that enjoys a little American cheese in their ramen.

    I was inspired to give this a try, but after making the first serving (for my husband), I realized I needed to adjust a couple of things for the other two servings. We only had Maruchan brand ramen, which might be why I had to finesse it a bit.
    1) I reduced the amount of boiling water to around 1 cup (236 ml). This allowed for a rich, creamy sauce rather than the thinner, broth-like version my husband received. He still liked it, but ours was better.
    2) His noodles were a bit too soggy, but since the egg needs that full, two minutes in the microwave in order for the egg whites to cook, I couldn't shave any time off of there. So as soon as it came out of the microwave, I immediately broke the yolk, & stirred in the cheese slices (they had softened a bit after sitting out, which helped). This created that thicker sauce I mentioned, which coated the noodles beautifully (but still with some left in the bottom of the bowl) rather than having them absorb more liquid.
    3) Optional, but we added black pepper & some leftover cabbage, as well. It wasn't bad, but broccoli would've been much better, imo. It did add a nice bit of bite, tho.

The seasoning is still on sale in Brazil to this day, it's used with the "Talharim" line, it's a heavier seasoning.

We have them in 'classic', teriyaki, chili and yakitori. Especially delicious if you add some chopped green onion

      I don't know if having less than fresh eggs (more than one month post production) is a blessing in my case because I still have to have an egg at that date to bust while I'm poaching it or just cooking it with a slice of cheese as topping in the microwave. I always poke the yolk though at the expense of a bleeding egg.😔

    My go to is cooking the Ramen in the broth on the stove (maybe adding some frozen veggies to add color and flavor to the broth, and sometimes I'll just use a small piece from a bullion cube), adding in butter, beating one egg per brick (I usually do two), and after the Ramen is cooked, lifting the noodles and pouring in the egg over them to coat them without instantly cooking them, adding it to a bowl lined with American cheese and topping it with Sriracha.

    I had to try making this, I was very curious about the American cheese idea in noodles. I used egg noodles instead of instant ramen because I never buy that anymore, with a little veg stock, garlic powder, MSG, black pepper and chilli flakes as my seasoning, along with some dried aromatic herbs (mix of onions, chives, red pepper, parsley, garlic) which you can find commonly in supermarkets here. I also put a little oyster sauce and a splash of soya sauce in the mix for extra flavour and let the noodles cook in this. I chopped up some bockwurst and added that too. Added the egg when the noodles were cooked and just let it cook the egg on very low heat for a bit with the lid closed. Sprinkled some cayenne on top for extra heat and some spring onions. I overdid the egg a bit because I got distracted so it wasn't soft and runny, but it turned out so good!

    I always use the full seasoning package when I make ramen, but for me that extra sodium is part of the reason as I need extra sodium to keep my blood pressure from dropping too much. I struggle with POTS issues (where your heart rate increases by a lot upon standing up and there can be blood pooling in the legs as well, more salt and fluids is part of the non medical treatment of the condition) But then on the other hand, I do use the full amount of liquid needed for making ramen soup, and then I poach an egg in the soup as the noodles are starting to soften up, and when serving I sprinkle some sesame seeds on the noodles in my bowl and a large dash of sesame oil and a bit of Tabasco. In the soup I might add some frozen peas and mushrooms and maybe some meatballs or chopped up hotdog before adding the noodles into the soup as the peas and meatballs or hotdog need a bit more time to cook (from frozen)
    Because of the stuff I add into my ramen, I actually have it for dinner a lot of the time when I make it. So fast and easy, delicious and a good way for me to cover that salt requirement without having to add salt myself

Currently sipping on a pear flavored mineral water that naturally contains 210mg of sodium plus other minerals including magnesium (not sure if the amounts are per 1,5L bottle or per liter) because of the well it’s from.
