    Sorry we didn't include that one. Again, we went to the store without knowing which ones to pick (there are something close to a million kinds of Ramen to choose from). We just picked eight kinds that looked interesting. Sorry!

    The cheese ramen is seriously awesome, and for the record, we're not American just because we speak English. Also, it's not our accents because in English we say "rah-men" but in Korean you say "rah-myeon".

  • @eatyourkimchi

    Cheese ramen is so so so good. The next time you make it, add an egg (swirl to cook) and a slice of processed cheese. OMG! So good!!!!

    Jajangmyun is sooo good if you actually order it from a restaurant. We found the instant ones to be awful!

    Simon, your videos are getting so professional, that's a great camera you got there! I'm glad I saw this, because I wanted to try the jajang and never would've thought about the cheese. Looking forward to your next test!

    You're right, and it's technically Japanese, but we needed one more noodle to taste that would be different from the rest. :P

  • @bluetigressemoon
    @bluetigressemoon 12 лет назад

    You're right!
    In 1958, instant noodles were invented by Momofuku Ando, the Taiwanese-Japanese founder and chairman of Nissin Foods, now run by his son Koki Ando. Named the greatest Japanese invention of the 20th century in a Japanese poll,[5] instant ramen allowed anyone to make this dish simply by adding boiling water.
    I got this from wikipedia =D

  • @ajussiwannabe

    Urban legend--about ten years or so--has it that the idea for Cheese Ramen started with American GIs swapping their MREs (meals ready to eat) for bowl of Ramen topped with Kraft's singles when they were out in the field on military exercises up near the DMZ during cold Korean winters.

  • @bannanas54321
    @bannanas54321 13 лет назад

    Ohhh... I get it.. The 짜장볶이 and the 라면볶이 are from the 콕!콕!콕! So u put the soup in and veggies or whatever in the bowl, but make sure that you didn't open the lid all the way. Next, you put in the hot water until it reaches the line. then close the tabs and wait 2~3 minutes. push in the 4 holes on the paper with your chopstick and pour out the water until it's not watery anymore. It turned out very watery when i 1st tried it, and then I got it the 2nd time. thx for uploading this.

    my personal preference is shin ramyun. both the ones that come in cups and the ones you make in a pot of boiling water. really nice on a really coooold day.
    spaghetti tends to taste really sweet in korea, i realized. jajangmyun is good if you order from the right place!

    where do you shop at? I can't believe they were selling the cup ramens at only W800! When I was in Korea last summer, I coudn't find any cup ramen under W1000... Isn't the retail price to be W1,000 minimum??
    - Gotta agree that the spaghetti was the worst one I tasted, but I actually liked the jajang & rabbokki ones. my favorite is the 새우탕.

    @Kwaniichan ramyun is just a style of noddle like spaghetti. and also ramen is the japanese style of this type of noddle food ^^

  • @add422
    @add422 15 лет назад

    i absolutely believe that you guys didn't cook the jajang thingy. after cooking the noodle with hellish-boiling water, you're actually supposed to let the water go and with tiny little amount of water and cooked noodle, you mix the sauce.
    i personally believe the jajang noodle is one of the best ramyun among there!

  • @GenieOfBeast
    @GenieOfBeast 12 лет назад

    It's funny because here in Michigan, the ramen I can find with English instructions is the kind with MSG and I love it but my mom keeps telling me it's terrible for my system. I wish I lived in Korea

  • @yyflower
    @yyflower 12 лет назад

    What you said was all correct and everything, except for one thing.
    I'm sorry if someone else has already pointed out, but, 'ramen' does not mean fried noodles, it means, most of the time, noodle soup.

  • @3plo

    i haven't tried many ramen but the worst one i've had so far is probably jappagetti (? or was it jajanggetti?

  • @AvecxMoi
    @AvecxMoi 15 лет назад

    I realized near the end that those were couple shirts and did a little *EEE* of glee. But anyway, I've tried the udon kind and the jajjang kind and then I've had various others. Something about the cheese ramen makes me think it'd be gross but then, I don't much like cheese. Have y'all tried the nong shim Shin ramyun? That's the best ramen I've ever had in my life

  • @Vihzel
    @Vihzel 13 лет назад

    Hey Simon and Martina! Incase you ever look at this and haven't discovered it since Feb 2009 (lol), 짜장면 is NOT supposed to be a soup and instead... you drain almost all of the water out (leave a tiny bit to help liquify the sauce), and then eat it. I've never had an American friend dislike it when I've made it, so I was very surprised that you guys disliked it. According to that one guy, he said it was some kind of "soup", so I assume you guys didn't drain the water.

  • @DKTRacers
    @DKTRacers 13 лет назад

    WHY??
    jajangboggi(짜장볶이) and spagetti ramen is really fit to my mouth.
    they must be dont see the sign, "throw away all of water before you pour the sauce".

It's like my second ketchup...I like to dip shrimp poppers in it,chicken nuggets, I add It to my Shin-Rymun Spicy Noodle(the ones with the dehydrated veggies)...I also add it to my Red Spanish Rice, and I Love to put it on cheesburgers sometimes...whether it's a burger from McDonalds or at home I through it on there just for an added kick...It's more sweet than spicy...I heard Siracha hot sauce Is way hotter than this stuff..

    However, so far we've only found the Nong Shim Bowl Noodles. The instant stuff.
    There are several varieties of it, but, I wish there was a local Korean shop where I live until I can (hopefully) get out of here. haha

    lol 자장 ramen has to be cooked differently... You have to pour hot water, then when the noodles becomes soft, remove almost all of the water. Then, add the sauce packages. Hey guys, if you guys get the chance to read the comment please try and eat again lol. It tastes really good haha

  • @KagamineLenX3
    @KagamineLenX3 14 лет назад

    well it all depends on taste and what ur accustomed to. foreigners from north america (i live in canada myself, but am korean so i eat lik a korean xD) hav very diff tastes, but u hav 2 make sure u cook everything correctly, personally i lik spicy things, as many koreans do, so i'd suggest shin ramyun and i just looove duk boekki and jjajjangmyun, ive never rly been a fan of udon tho, btw, these r dif korean noodles, myun being noodles, ramen is a seperate kind, also try bi bim myun!

    Just to clear it up, of course noodles can be seen in all parts of Asia! Don't go around saying whatever about chinese or japanese coming up with noodles first. Koreans have their own distict noodle culture, and "ramen" just means fried noodles. Instant noodles were made in Japan first, but Japanese never make their ramen spicy or tingling like koreans. They just taste like Udon. Bread first came from Egypt. Doesnt mean entire Europe is copying by making their versions of french or italian ones
