Based on the concept of 'penetrating stimulation x individual meal bag noodles', we used the thickest extra-thick noodles in the history of NISSIN FOODS, and the menu was extremely spicy and addictive, so I tried it first.

'Nissin Explosive Spicy Noodles Extra Thick Super Spicy Ramen' 'Nissin Explosive Spicy Noodles Korean Style Extra Thick Large Spicy Yakisoba' (Released on March 29) | Nissin Foods Group

'Spicy level 5' was written on the upper right of the package.

The raw materials are as follows. The calories per serving is 462 kcal.

The contents of the bag are 'habitual rich spicy powder soup' and dried noodles.

On the back of the package, there was a recipe for making using cut vegetables sold at the supermarket, so I tried to make it exactly as it was.

First, add vegetable oil to the pan and fry 100g of cut vegetables for about one and a half minutes.

Pour 500 ml of hot water into it and bring to a boil.

When it boils, add the noodles. Boil with vegetables for 5 minutes.

While boiling the noodles, leave the powdered soup open in the bowl.

After 5 minutes, first pour only hot water into the bowl to dissolve the powdered soup. Already at this point, the pungent scent of chili peppers was drifting.

After melting the powdered soup, add the noodles and vegetables to complete. I made it according to the recipe written on the back of the package, but the soup is considerably reduced and it looks like soupless noodles.

The soup is red and cloudy and slightly thickened. When I drank it, I felt the sweetness and rich umami, and I thought, 'Isn't it a normal delicious ramen?', But within a few seconds, the tingling stimulus of the chili pepper comes. The first bite is not that much, but the spiciness persists, and the more you drink it, the more spicy it becomes and the more you drink it, the more it hurts in your mouth. The copy of 'penetrating stimulus' is not an exaggeration, but on the other hand, the richness, umami, and sweetness of the soup are as strong as the stimulus of chili peppers, so the taste that spicy food lovers want to realize 'spicy but delicious'. It is finished in.

The noodles are thick, very chewy and elastic, and are often entwined with the soup. The level of spiciness is so strong that even people who are good at spicy foods comment that it is 'firmly spicy', but the editorial staff, who has a strong umami taste and is not very good at spicy foods, said, 'The mouth hurts. It's spicy, but it feels better than that, so if you do your best, you can eat it. '

The package of 'Nissin Explosive Spicy Noodles Korean Style Extra Thick Large Spicy Yakisoba' looks like this.

The spiciness level is set to 5, the same as 'Nissin Explosive Spicy Noodles Extra Thick Super Spicy Ramen'.

The raw materials are as follows. Calories are 611 kcal per bag.

The contents are 'addictive sweet and spicy powder sauce' and dried noodles. Compared to 'Nissin Explosive Spicy Noodles, Extra Thick Spicy Ramen,' the noodles are thinner and have a square block shape.

Boil 380 ml of water in a frying pan, and when it boils, add the noodles.

Boil the noodles for about 3 minutes while turning them over every 30 seconds, then add the cut vegetables as they are.

While loosening the noodles with chopsticks, fry the noodles and vegetables until they are dry.

While a little water remains, add a sweet and spicy powder sauce with a habit ...

Stir well.

If you put the egg yolk on a plate ...

Complete.

First of all, I will eat the place without egg yolk. The moment you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness of gochujang, but after a few seconds, the spiciness of the chili pepper spreads in your mouth. The piercing spiciness lasts in the mouth, but the level of spiciness may be relatively weak due to the sweetness compared to ramen. It also has umami and has a complex taste. The noodles are chewy and the crispy stir-fried vegetables are a nice accent.

Next time, break the yolk and entangle it with the noodles.

The entanglement of egg yolk makes the spiciness much milder, so even people who are not good at spiciness may be able to eat it. As the spiciness is mellow, you can feel the rich umami, which gives the impression that the quality of the dish is greatly improved.
