- Hakubaku Authentic Ramen Noodles Kaedama8PACK Non-fried&Soft. Made in Japan

Buy these!! They are absolutely delicious and a total ramen game changer 😋

Video shows my homemade tantanmen ramen. (Little secret for ramen lovers out there trying to get into homemade territory: unsweetened soymilk heated to partially reduce + properly seasoned will be shockingly close to real tonkotsu broth. I personally use Lee Kum Kee chicken powder + a dried mushroom spice blend. Of course, this is just the broth, don't forget the specific dashi for the ramen you're making.) The noodles are a tad pricey but very high quality, on par with what you'd get at a typical ramen joint out here in LA County/San Gabriel Valley. Keeping the par-with-ramen-shop theme, a single packet in terms of noodle quantity is also reflective of what you'd be served at a typical ramen restaurant. If I could rate 4.5 stars I could just because of the slightly high price, but leaning 5 stars because of the sheer quality. You can chuck the box in the fridge and the noodles (which are packed freshly made, btw) will last weeks, months in the freezer. Because they're freshly made, they take only ~90sec to cook to a springy al dente vs the 4-7 minutes you'd need for dry/dehydrated noodles. On top of that, they're heat resistant out of the pot, as I've experienced minimal softening even without washing the noodles while I assemble the ramen bowl. Ramen connoisseurs know how integral noodle quality is for a good ramen bowl, and these are the best I've used so far for home cooking. Worth the price? Maybe not for every single bowl, but great for those weeks you want to treat yourself or on the occasion you get to show off ramen skills to guests.

This stuff is delish! Will definitely continue to purchase.

I had to adjust the review because these noodles actually are pretty good but definitely need better instructions. You need to add a good bit of salt to the water or these noodles taste like dough. When I say a lot I mean a good bit depending on the size of the pot you are using. When properly seasoned the noodles cook perfectly in 1 min and taste like what I get at my favorite ramen shop.

I made a sesame broth ramen with spicy minced pork and I cooked the noodles separately. It was light and delicious! I didn’t get the spinach or bok choy into the dish that time when I took the pic. The second time, I tried to save time by making the broth ahead of time and I froze it. I cooked the noodles in the broth. Unfortunately, the starch made the noodles gummy and the broth was so salty. Next time, I’ll cook it separately. There is nothing wrong with the noodles. You just need to know how to cook them.

I was going to buy some ramen noodles until I noticed the sodium intake and the calories I was like nope that's not going to work too much salt and I thought let me look up a homemade ramen dish and I made it with these noodles. number one it's so easy to make ramen I used spinach all the seasoning and oils, an egg plus shredded chicken lt was so delicious and these noodles were perfect it was so good so I am now hooked on my homemade ramen noodle recipe that I found online so delicious and these noodles really help top it all off.

Taste good for the most part. But has a bit of a learning curve. The first time I made a stir fry and made according to package.. and the noodles came out a little too soft for my taste but they were good. The second time i made the stirfry i just added the noodles straight into the stir fry which cause the noodles to stick to each other and was a bit difficult to separate but taste again was good and more firm ( al diente) how I like. So the third time I made stir fry, I boiled the water with a little salt and then added the noodles. I stirred the noodles so that they would separate and then I drained them in a strainer and cooled them with cold water and drained. Placed them into the stir fry and they came out pretty good. Not too soft and not stuck together.. they are a bit thin for my taste but not bad. What is left won't go to waste but I'm not sure if I would buy again. I might have to keep searching for better noodles.

Great ramen flavor with the low sodium. I was pleasantly surprised it was low sodium
