weird way to propose but yes I do

Check Aaron and Claire ramen videos for more ideas!
Wow I learned a lot in this one. It was like a cultural class. What fun!
Beautiful simplicity. I will be serving every one of these ramen dishes over the next few weeks.
BTS shared two recipes to make the fire noodles less spicy. Jungkook's buldak combines with it Neoguri and Taehyung, in Jinny's Kitchen, used Carbo Buldak and Chacharoni. Any chance you guys can find a way to level it up and compare?
Thanks for believing in me, parsley forever
At 2:49, the transcription is wrong. It's actually "Pul-Eo", not "Pulda".

I wish I could eat instant ramen, but the sodium would definitely give me a stroke
Do you know "pasta di mezzanotte", guys?
love eric!!!!
My dad would always doctor up some ramen for us as a quick in-between meal as a kid–so much, that when I went to college, I swore I would never eat it again. Yet, somehow it has found its way back to my life, and there is nothing I enjoy more as a quick in-between meal than a gussied up ramen. Can't wait to try some of these ideas.
RAMEN !!! AY MI AMOR
All of these look amazing! I usually just do an egg drop and chili oil
Yummmmmmmmm
I discovered that I am allergic to soy so I have to avoid the seasoning packet but using "better than bouillon" allows me to have the easy noodles with a great broth. I add dried onion, frozen peas and carrots, finish cooking noodles and then toss in a raw egg or add a cooked egg (fried, soft or hard boiled) on top. I can't wait to try your ideas.
this is my first time seeing this chef but i really like them
Never been much of an instant ramen fan, but all of these sound really delicious.
I regularly make gochujang buttered noodles, but I use udon noodles. I toss them in some chopped kimchi. Delish.
Here's the way I make instant ramen:
Boil noodles in plain water, drain, set back in the warm pan with the heat off. Toss in a bit of butter (I eyeball it, but it's around 1tbsp), crack in one egg, and stir to emulsify. Then sprinkle in the seasoning packet. I usually add in whatever veggie is languishing in the crisper drawer, as well as whatever garnish I have – fried onions, chopped peanuts, lao gan ma chili crisp, green onion, sriracha, etc. Oh, also…my favorite brand of ramen if I don't want to have to add anything is Indomie. Totally recommend to anyone who's never tried it.
Wow! So many great ideas! We love instant ramen, I will definitely give some of these a try!!
The music is so great!

paddington bear ramen delight – ramen lightly glazed in marmalade preserves with roasted cashews over slightly toasted marshmallows with a dozen globs of chocolate sauce ftw…
Litmus test. Like does he transcend also it interesting what you write and what you leave out. White people just seem like they have everything and east Asian are like everything is computational and its exhausting.
Like write down all the top teir products your fans want to see thus dude in. Its interesting what u leave out. Like let's actually do something about media.
As Sam sanders on his podcast obsess better.
In the pandemic, Neil degrasse Tyson wrote starry messenger. Like this is.
Gosh, heโs so cute. ๐
When Iโm too lazy to fry an egg, I add a tablespoon of peanut butter and some sambal. I mix it with the flavour powder & oil and some of the cooking water. Also handy to blanch pre-prepared broccoli/ cauliflower/ Brussels sprouts before boiling the noodles, and mix it before serving. If you sautรฉ mixed mushrooms one day, put some aside for using with instant fried noodles, with or without a fried egg. If you want to add meat, diced/ cubed salami or ham is nice as well. To increase the flavour, heat the salami a bit, so some fat renders out and mix it with the included flavourings.
They actually pay you for this?
I love Eric!
If you frequently make Ramen, making yourself some ajitamas is the best upgrade, you've just gotta think ahead so they can marinate. It's just soy sauce, mirin and sugar but if you really know how to make a good jammy yolk egg, it's so delicious.
I am in love with this man
I feel so validated by Eric's point about gochujang calling for brightness/acidity. Agreeeeee!! It's the perfect ingredient when you add vinegar, but can be a bit heavy with no acid and I rarely see recipes that have both
Huh. Eric makes Ramyun very similar to how I do it. Interesting..
bro, i feel like that carbonara is screaming for some gochujang or gochugaru instead of pepper at the end
I miss gourmet asmrโค
When I was growing up, my mom would take packets of maruchan ramen, cook the noodles, then drain and stir fry them with veggies, eggs, and shrimp or chicken, and add some of the flavor packet as seasoning. It was so filling and good, and is still such a comfort meal to me ๐ฅฐ
Ok I need to up my ramen game ๐. I'm embarrassed by my plain old noodles.
6:37 I agree. I do not break them up until it is serving and devouring time!๐
