Tips for the Best TikTok Ramen Noodles

Tips for the Best TikTok Ramen Noodles

  • You can use any variety or brand of ramen in this recipe. However, many strongly advise trying Asian products like Nongshim and Samyang. Compared to other noodles, they are thicker, tougher, and chewier.

  • Although garlic powder is more convenient, raw garlic has a better flavor. You might also need to experiment with the measurements. Consider adding more sauce after giving it a taste.

  • Take into account preparing the sauce before the noodles. The sauce should be hot (or at least warm) when the noodles are cooked because you will combine everything at that time. The noodles will clump together and dry out if this doesn't happen.

  • Don't completely drain the noodles. To prevent noodles from drying, leave 1-2 teaspoons of water in the saucepan. If the sauce is excessively thick, set aside a cup of the cooking water for the noodles.

  • The eggs don't have to be scrambled. The method of cooking the egg is completely up to you. You can boil, poach, or pan-fry it. Even the cooked noodles can be incorporated to further thicken the sauce.
