Cooking tips

  • Microwave power varies by household, so adjust time carefully and check color midway to avoid burning.
  • Adding sugar immediately after removing from the microwave ensures it melts and sticks properly to the hot surface.
  • Freshly removed ramen is extremely hot—avoid placing it directly into regular plastic bags, as they may melt and tear. Use airtight containers or zip-top bags, or let it cool slightly first for safety.
  • You can use store-bought gochujang, or easily make your own by mixing gochujang with sugar and vinegar to taste.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a crispy snack in just 5 minutes without the hassle of frying.
  • People looking for an addictive, light dry snack to enjoy with beer.
  • Anyone wanting to experience the unique, tangy-sweet combination of fresh ramen and gochujang.
