GoGo noodles

This Myojo Chukazanmai ended up being very yummy. When I unwrapped the package, the first thing I noticed was the dried noodles. It looked like they were handmade because of their inconsistent shape. Preparation was a little different than usual: boil noodles in water, take off heat, pour noodles into bowl and add seasoning powder, oil/soy mixture and combine thoroughly. You’ll notice that the seasoning powder dissolves immediately, which is a nice attention to detail. I wish Mi Goreng seasoning powder dissolved so quickly and consistently. The soy was strong but went well with the toasty chili oil. A very nice balance flavor-wise. My soup was a little too salty….i should have added a bit more water. However, despite that minor adjustment…these noodles were great. The noodles were soft and chewy because of their unusual shape. And the simple flavors of the soup are rich and comforting. Good thing I have another pack on hand.

Since the Myojo ramen soy sauce flavor was sooo good, I had to try the soybean flavor. This had a nice mild miso flavor and the broth was smooth and rich. Again, the noodles tasted as close to fresh as instant ramen can get. The texture was perfectly al dente and chewy. I came pretty close to having all the toppings in the picture and added a little extra….a pat of butta! I’ve seen butter on the ramen menus and decided to try it at home and it’s so sinfully good. I would highly recommend it.

If you are a fan of Nissin UFO Yakisoba, you’ll definitely like these noodles. As you can see, the instructions are printed in English and even better, there are pictures! I had so much fun making these noodles because I felt like I was making Yakisoba noodles from scratch.


After I carefully peeled back the cover exactly to the dotted line, I found 4 seasoning packets, one of which I had never seen before: mustard mayonnaise! Who would have thought that the secret ingredient to Yakisoba is mustard mayonnaise?? Yum. Another nice surprise was when I poured out the contents from the dry vegetable package to find such huge pieces.


So after the noodles and dry vegetables cook, there’s a nifty built in spout where you pour the water out without sacrificing a single noodle. Sooo cooool!!

BEFORE

AFTER – Not only were these noodles really fun to make, they tasted so good! The noodles were perfectly al dente and the mustard and mayo added an extra creaminess that I didn’t find with the Nissin UFO Yakisoba.

Don’t be fooled by the word soba, these are not buckwheat noodles. Okinawa soba is just the style of ramen from Okinawa! That’s all I know. The soup has a strong bonito & seaweed flavor and the noodles are different in that they are flatter, thicker and a bit chewier. I’m not sure why but I really like the wavy shape, it makes it extra slurpy and fun.
