NongshimShin Original Ramyun Cup, 2.64 Ounce (Pack of 6)

I’ve tried my fair share of ramen over the years, but Shin Black Ramen Noodles truly stands out as one of the best. This stuff is next-level!Flavor:The broth is bold and flavorful, with the perfect balance of spice and richness. It’s not just spicy for the sake of heat – there’s a deep, savory umami that really elevates the overall taste. The heat level is definitely on the higher side, but it’s that perfect type of spicy where you keep coming back for more. The addition of garlic, onion, and the hint of miso makes it absolutely addictive. I’ve had other spicy ramen that feels like it’s just burning your mouth, but Shin Black offers complexity and depth that makes each slurp more satisfying than the last.Noodles:The noodles themselves are fantastic. They have that perfect chewy texture that holds up well in the broth without getting soggy. They soak up the flavor beautifully and are just the right thickness to create a satisfying bite. I love that they feel like restaurant-quality ramen – not the thin, flimsy noodles you get in many instant ramen packets.Packaging & Convenience:I really appreciate the thoughtful packaging – the ramen comes with a separate seasoning packet, which keeps everything fresh. It’s incredibly easy to prepare; you can have a delicious bowl ready in under 5 minutes. As someone who doesn’t always have time to cook a full meal, this is a great option for a quick, satisfying lunch or dinner.Portion Size:The portion size is generous – it’s filling enough to be a hearty meal on its own, but also works well if you want to add your own toppings like a boiled egg, some vegetables, or a bit of meat. I’ve enjoyed it both as is and with some extra add-ins, and it’s always satisfying.Overall Value:For the quality and flavor, this ramen is a steal! It’s a bit more expensive than your standard instant noodles, but you get what you pay for. The quality, flavor complexity, and satisfaction it delivers are totally worth the price.In conclusion, Shin Black Ramen has earned its place as my go-to spicy ramen. If you love bold, flavorful, and spicy noodles, you absolutely need to try these. Highly recommend!

The aroma of this ramen is wonderful Between the season packet, the bone broth packet, and the mushrooms it is a great combination. It is very mushroom forward which I enjoy. I would not say that it is spicy per say but it does have a lingering heat. I do not like spice much but I do quite enjoy this. If You're worried, just add less of the seasoning pack so you have less spice. Doesn't need any additions, microwaves easily, or just add boiled water. Great value for the quality of the ramen. These are large cups too so the size is great - larger than the cup ramen brand. Noodles are the perfect thickness, and easy to get to the desired tenderness.

Like many folks, I like ramen. An entire continent of people can't be all wrong about noodles, and were nice enough to share one of their simplest dishes with us pale peons.I have left Top Ramen behind long ago in the college years. It was a good hot soup for dead cheap and worked for the era it lived in.After my first paycheck as an adult, ramen was left to memories. It just wasn't THAT tasty or fulfilling. Years later (okay, decades, I admit it) I'm finally back to cooking for one, but now I have money. So I am at the market looking at quick simple foods for the (sob) single person that I am.I discover the ramen aisle. Cue up the spotlights, the meme with the person "getting it" in surprise, the big ol' "O" face of a utopian find! There are AISLES of this stuff now?There wasn't just "ramen" on the floor anymore, Top Ramen was bottom shelf in this world, or was it even there at all? I found ramen of every flavor, noodle, brand possible. Tonkatsu to Ning Shom, I had a new world to explore! Happiness was on the horizon! I filled my cart with so many different kinds, a true smorgasbord of noodles and more noodles.On this grand ramen adventure I prepared one cup on a cold foggy Saturday afternoon. I was going in raw this time, no boiled egg or beef slices. No mushroom or spinach. Just me and the noodle. Me and the noodle. I sat down with my bright red cup and dipped into the future.Promptly set my mouth on fire and paralyzed my face! The tongue wanted to leave the vicinity, teeth tried to retract, the lips called 911. This stuff was on FIRE and I had just put liquid lava on board. None of this wussy "The floor is lava" baloney, I went straight to the face!And I was in love. Yup, I am firmly in a relationship with these small cups of lava. I have changed my facebook and instagram status. This little red cup of fire-in-the-hole! is mine now.Prepare yourself. If you're a weenie with spicy, see yourself out, this isn't for you. Don't even do it on a dare, or drunk. If black pepper is daring to you just...Tonkatsu or something. Go beefy, but go home. This here is for those who are big, bad and SERIOUS about their heat and their noodles.Don't even kiss someone who just had an encounter. Well, maybe after five minutes, but no sooner.My sodium levels are protesting, but I keep slurping. I might need an intervention.

Really a step up from my cup o something. Did the microwave prep, stirred, and let sit for 5 minutes. Noodles and broth just meld together, umami anyone?. The noodles do absorb a lot of the broth, but really good. 5 left, jammy egg, sliced beef, scallions, can’t wait to try these additions.Of course, it is a sodium bomb.

Best all around ramen on the market. Good value, tasty, filling and easy to prepare. Great meal on the fly and on the go.

Yummy 😋

Why did you pick this product vs others?:We didn't care for this one. Size however worked perfect for the teenager ones. Not a rebuy for us. We'll just leave it on the "no-go" list of instant noodles we have. 3 starts cause instant noodles !?! I think yes ! Favor, quality it's just "ok"

I saw a YouTube video on instant ramen by chefs. This is one that they liked. So I gave it a try. Very good noodles and the broth excellent. Not overly spicy. One thing is that when I heated it in the microwave the broth overflowed. So I tried a shorter time and it was fine. Good value and delicious.
