Introduction
Chef James reviews five popular new instant noodles, including Vietnamese Pho, Black Garlic Tonkotsu, Qinghuajiao Spicy Hot Pot noodles, Thai Tom Yum dry noodles, and Herbal soup noodles. Beyond reviewing the original flavors, James shares his secret tips for upgrading instant noodles instantly using fresh ingredients or spirits.
Step 1
【Hanbao Vietnamese Pho Chicken Flavor】Peel back the lid and pour in hot water to rehydrate the rice noodles.
Step 2
【Hanbao Vietnamese Pho Chicken Flavor】Mix in the seasoning and enjoy. James recommends this upgrade: blanch bean sprouts, Thai basil, onion slivers, and beef slices in separate hot water, then add them to the rehydrated noodles to perfectly replicate a restaurant-style Vietnamese Pho.
Step 3
【Wei Wei A PLUS Black Garlic Tonkotsu Soup Noodles】Pour in hot water to rehydrate the noodles, then mix in the included black garlic oil packet. The broth has a rich black garlic aroma, reminiscent of home-style Taiwanese flavors.
Step 4
【Qinghuajiao Spicy Beef Hot Pot Noodles】Pour in hot water and add the spicy seasoning packet (containing tofu and beef), then cover to rehydrate.
Step 5
【Qinghuajiao Spicy Beef Hot Pot Noodles】Once rehydrated, add the final green Sichuan peppercorn oil packet and stir. This significantly elevates the signature numbing and fresh aroma of the Sichuan peppercorn hot pot.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Flavor oil packets (such as black garlic oil, Sichuan peppercorn oil, and Thai spicy oil) should be added just before serving to best preserve and release their aromas. 💡
The Jay Fai Thai Spicy Dry Noodles are quite spicy before the green spicy oil packet is added; adjust the amount of dry seasoning powder if you have a low spice tolerance. ⚠️
Instant noodles are convenient, but it is recommended to enjoy them in moderation or add fresh vegetables and meat, like James does, to increase nutritional value and flavor. 👥
