Ramen Mini Review #2:

Sapporo Ichiban Japanese Style Noodles & Shrimp Flavored Soup

- wow. this **** was good. tasted like a really good version of Nissin Top Ramen Shrimp. The broth was delicious and the noodles were slurp sloppy good.  I rate this higher than the Shin Raymun Black I tried yesterday.

Adding green onions a little hot cock sauce would really kick this ramen off. I would also add some sesame oil.

9/10

would eat again.

[IvanIvanovich]

Try it with some grill charred squid + tofu skewers, green onion and sriracha.
sesame oil is good, but I like peanut oil more, especially if you let some naga jolokias steep in it for a few weeks.

[tricheboars]

what about eel? i am obsessed with eel sushi. do people ever add that to ramen?

[CPTBadAss]

I don't see why not. Eel is delicious

[Shadovved]

You guys need to come live in Singapore

Japanese and korean stuff are everywhere!

So are stuff from all sorts of different places

EDIT: and the nong shim ramen is good

[tribade]

I'd be remiss if I didn't take some time to mention indomie.  God those noodles are delicious.  I eat them all the time at school.

LOL, it's just soysauce and sugar.. ...  add that to anything, and burn it a bit, it smells/taste like eel sushi.

I strongly disagree with this post.

also i never add soy sauce or wasabi to sashimi or sushi. it is a rude thing to do.

LOL ..  You can break things down into infinite complexity, or knowing that our capacity is limited, you may choose to live with approximations.


1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup mirin (sweet rice wine)
1/4 cup sugar

+

Eel

That's the most usual way that they make it..

You don't really need the mirin, as that's just an alcohol used to carry off aromatic oils..

Now tell me, what else is in there..

[sleepy916]

I had this the other day. It's so good and it works out when I don't feel like a lot of broth with my noodles.

[Malphas]

Being rude is great though, especially when it comes to foreign cultures.

You're suggesting that one should be rude to others simply because they're foreign?

this isn't the first racist thing to come outta you..

many times I've seen you post things with racist undertones...

what's up.. insecure about something, or are you really just a racist bigot ?

Nationalities aren't races, tp. Xenophobic is the term you're looking for, not racist. Although it's still not correct because it's not a fear-based motivation, it's just because it's fun to make fun of people (like you).

The seafood flavors aren't very good, but the other ones I've tried are delicious.

Drop some deli meat and tapiteo and you have yourself a feast.

People like me, you mean asians?

You like to make fun of other nationalities? chinese, korean, japanese, thai, vietnamese, indian??

[Malphas]

Nah, not Asian. I meant obtuse, socially stunted, easy to ridicule people.

Dude, wtf, if you want to be racist, go ahead and say it,

Now you're the worst kind of racist, LOL, a coward,    at least blatant racists have a sense of pride, and boldness

[SpAmRaY]

And we were doing so good talking about noodles......

[tp4tissue]

And we were doing so good talking about noodles......

Yea man, noodles talk was great.. but then Malphas has to come in with all his racist stuff. he didn't say anything about the noodles, he just straight up came in and said,, Down with foreigners, and how we shouldn't respect them because they're foreign, screw them and their culture..

also i never add soy sauce or wasabi to sashimi or sushi. it is a rude thing to do.

Being rude is great though, especially when it comes to foreign cultures.

I've been online long enough to know there are racists out there, but this caught me off guard in a noodle thread.

But seriously, he then tries to redirect the argument against me personally.. Malphas is clearly an Asian h8er, he claims xenophobia, so his racism is clearly affirmed.

What made me angry was that he's now dodgy about it...   Hiding away...  I hate cowards more than I hate racists.

[PointyFox]

Don't eat ramen if you can help it.  Way too much salt and way too much fat if it's the kind that you add mayonnaise and stuff to like the Myoujo Ippei-chan Yakisoba.

this thread is now about how Malphas is a freakin' racist.

But I can carry on with both, so below..

I agree the increased sodium intact increases odds of gastric cancers.

[Trent]

I'm a big fan of Shin Ramyun.  I enjoy the maruchan oriental flavor and beef flavor.

I heard that the maruchan roast beef flavor is the top dog of the maruchans, I ordered a box online and am looking forward to trying it.


I didn't realize there was a Shin Ramyun Black edition, what is this sorcery?  Has anyone tried it?

I try to avoid using the entire pack of flavoring. Half will do you fine.

Shin black is easily one of my favorite ramens. It's not as spicy as regular Shin and has a full-bodied pork flavor with a big 'ol veggie packet. Yummy stuff if you can find it, but also like $4 a packet for instant ramen.
Also, someone said don't add soy sauce to fried rice? You are absolutely mad, soy sauce is delicious on almost everything!

[Shadovved]

Lemme take a pic of my drawer of mee

[tp4tissue]

After a while though, All ramen taste the same,

Basically all comes down to MSG water and noodles.

Oh and soy sauce tastes great on everything because SOYSAUCE HAS MSG due to the fermentation process which ALL soysauces go through .

Why does seafood taste good, dang, it has MSG? naturally? wha... you don't say.

Again foreign cultures = nationalities, not races. France is a foreign culture to me; if I make fun of the French, am I being racist? The sidenote about it being fun to make fun of people was just that, and I do like making fun of you, frankly, and wasn't even aware of your ethnicity until you just mentioned it, so there you go. Now by all means carry on with your hilarious brand of aspie-esque, social ineptitude that we've all come to enjoy, son.

[Lanx]

also for me...

ramen is good with leftovers, (depending on the leftovers of course)

like if i have left over steak, it goes great in the broth, doesn't have to be beef flavor either (probably overwhelmed).

i do throw a cooked egg on there if i want some protein, rather than the raw egg style (just doesn't taste good to me, plus i make good eggs, with that nice bottom crisp that when placed on top of noodles is like a barrier).

Shin black, isn't more spice.. it tastes the exact same for me, except for a mild increase in mushroom flavor.

[Sai]

my fav during my school times

[Lbeuol]

It really reminds me of growing up in Japan and just so many good memories. Too bad I can't find it anywhere locally so these will have to do until then!

[IvanIvanovich]

Oh geez, we are on udon now? This is going to devolve into talking about yakisoba, shiritaki, japchae, and rice vermicelli and other manner of Asian style noodles **** too now isn't it?
It's kind of hard to find good packaged instant udon. I have found that a lot of it is really bad and tastes like playdoh or something.

[tricheboars]

I am fine with us talking about all kinds of Asian instant noodles. Open my mind geekers.

Also I think the shin Raymun black edition is way overrated.

Also guys if you don't drink all the broth you won't take in all the salt. It really is that simple. 

Also I gotta give credit where it is due.  Tp4tissue is one of the best forum trolls I have seen in a while. He can derail almost any thread. So kudos dude.  How you got to talking about race vs nationality in a. Thread about ramen is beyond me.

Also I agree that malphas is a little racist. 


Edit: all my sentences start with also. Terrible writing. **** it, it stays.

I know right, this isn't the first time either.   

And where have you actually heard shin black is all that great, I just thought it was just another flavor for shin beacause the first one got boring.

Ramen Rater and amazon are the sources that told me shin black raymun is the best instant ramen of all time.  Don't get me wrong it is way better than anything nissin makes, it just isn't better than Sapporo Ichiban.

I don't know, how this isn't posted yet.

Ramen Review:

Sapporo Ichiban Oriental Flavored Ramen

wow. this **** is the jam. it is really good, but it has beef stock in it. as somone who does not eat beef i am worried this is going to give me the 'work runs'.

freaking really delicious stuff though. my favorite so far. would def eat again. the noodles are fantastic and the broth is green onion good.

i have to take 1 point off for it since it has beef in it.

9/10

[Trent]

So relevant to this thread.  Being out of town this weekend I was able to stop by an international food place and pickup a bunch of different types of ramen.  My haul:


And they had some kind of Ramen flavored chips, will try them out soon.


They even had Shin Ramyun black!  Here is everything the kit contained:


I definitely did notice that the spicy factor was reduced, but I think it had to do with the fact that there are two soup bases instead of just one.  I would go with the regular shin ramyun rather than the black edition.

[tricheboars]

i agree. I though shin black was overrated.
