How a Korean sees this ramen 💬
🧳 A ramen kids eat happily too
I'll go out on a limb: this is the undisputed number one of jjajang (black bean sauce) ramen. Other companies have put out countless jjajang ramen, but none of them can beat it. It tastes good, but it almost makes me wonder if we've all just been trained to like this exact flavor. In supermarkets it's the second best-selling ramen after Shin Ramyun. It also shows up in the movie Parasite, in a scene where it's eaten with hanwoo (Korean beef).
Tip 💡
There are lots of ways to dress it up. One of them is Chapaguri: Chapagetti and Neoguri cooked together. It was a popular dish for a while. There's a Chapaguri cup ramen too. Personally I think it tastes fine, but it doesn't sell that well.
