Spice Up Your Instant Noodles: 5 Distinctive Ingredients for a New Tasting Experience

Instant noodles are a quick and convenient meal that many people turn to for a quick and easy meal. Adding in distinctive ingredients can elevate your instant noodles and give you a new and exciting taste experience. 

Here are some ideas for ingredients you can add to your instant noodles for a unique and flavourful twist.

Korean Rice Cake

Korean rice cakes, also known as Tteokbokki, are a chewy and slightly sweet snack that can be added to instant noodles for a unique texture and flavour. Instant noodle soup base makes the best sauce for rice cakes. They will absorb the flavour of the seasoning and add a chewy texture to the dish. You can find them in slices or stick forms at Matthew’s Foods Online.

Cheese

 

Adding cheese to your instant noodles is a great way to create a creamy and indulgent dish. Simply cook your noodles as you normally would, and simply place a slice of cheese on top of your noodles for a burst of flavour. Cheese adds richness and depth to your instant noodles, making them a comforting and satisfying meal.

Milk

Adding milk to your instant noodles might sound strange, but it can actually create a creamy and rich flavour. Simply mix water & milk in 1:1 and cook your noodles as you normally would, this will create a creamy soup base that coats the noodles and adds a whole new dimension of flavour.

Ketchup

Another handy food cupboard item that can be added to instant noodle soup is ketchup, which will bring in a tangy and slightly sweet flavour to your noodles. Simply add a tablespoon or two of ketchup to the noodle soup and this combination may be particularly appealing to those who enjoy a more Western-style flavour profile.

Peanut Butter

While it may sound unusual, peanut butter can add a creamy and nutty flavour to your instant noodles and it’s actually how the Chinese Dan Dan noodle is cooked. Simply add a spoonful of peanut butter to the pot while cooking and the heat from the noodles will help to melt the peanut butter, creating a rich and flavourful sauce. The result is a unique and satisfying dish that will leave your taste buds happy.
