NongShim Shin Ramyun, enhanced ramen,








Nongshim is a South Korean company with over a trillion dollars in sales operating in over 100 countries. It is the largest ramen company in South Korea.

It's very good. You can have dinner in three minutes.

This red packaged product is the least expensive of two offered on Amazon at half the cost as the black labeled product. The black label is presumably hotter. You get three packet inside the black and two packets inside the red labeled product.

Red $17.34 for 20 packages
Black $19.29 for 10 packages.

Both labels are very good but the black label is not twice as good as the red label.

But who cares? They're not purchased for their dehydrated vegetables nor for their spices or heat. Nor for their soy sauce. All that is ridiculous. All of them have to be helped with fresh ingredients no matter what. You can do much better with any bullion and any combination of the seven magical Asian flavor ingredients linked on the front page of this blog.

I had the microwave going along with a small pot and a small pan stovetop and I could barely keep up. Three minutes boom done. 

See, you have to pull and trim vegetables and repackage them for storage in the refrigerator; a red bell pepper, a chunk of broccoli, mushrooms and an egg. Then steam the vegetables and fry an egg and open the flavor packets in the time it takes two cups of water to come to the boil and cook for two and a half minutes to soften the noodles. There is no time for dilly-dallying. It's a flurry of cutting and trimming and cooking and opening packages then in three short minutes all activity suddenly stops. 

While the effort is photographed. 

It takes longer to adjust the photos in post processing, and that's done very rapidly, upload them and write this than it did to make the meal.
