Also I did not update my photos so that is a confusing radical!

Well I really made five but it was too many noodles so I figured four would have been a better dose of noodles. Also I'm a horrible cook so accuracy is not my strong point in the culinary arena. :)

Is it 4 or 5 ramen packages? In the picture you show 5, but on the list you show 4. Thanks for the guide :)

I agree on the Maruchan, much better name. However I tend to default to just whatever is available from my local bulk purveyor.

Great ideas! thanks. Do you recommend Top Ramen? I usually use Maruchan, but I must confess that that is because I think the name is cute.

Thanks for the ideas! No idea on calories but I bet it's over 7. :)

I've never used those packaged flavour packs - have you read the ingredients?! Great tips. I recommend adding frozen peas to cook with the noodles to boost veggie intake.

It's a trick I learned when I lived in Japan. Drop a raw egg into the boiling noodles and it cooks through the noodles. I did this when making udon. Then you drain the excess water from the ramen and noodles.

Do you add the raw egg when you add the onion or after straining the water?

I actually crack a raw egg into the boiling noodles and it cooks in through the noodles. Really yummy!
