How long do you cook 2 minute noodles for?

[blubblubblub]

not 2 minutes

2 minutes

[Anonymous]

depends if it's a woman's 2 minutes or a man's. Going by a man's 2 minutes, that's 120 seconds on the dot. If it's a woman's 2 minutes then you've got time to take a shower, read a short book and maybe catch a movie while it cooks for the "2 minutes".

[blubblubblub]

lmaoo

I make my own ramen and the noodles I buy state "3 minutes" on the package. My foot! I've gotta' boil those suckers for like 12+ minutes to get them to the texture I like! lol 😳

[blubblubblub]

thats just sludge

I assure you, they aren't like ramen noodles in a typical packet of ramen. Those usually only take 2-3 minutes to cook. Despite the 3 minute statement on the packet, these take 3-4 times longer to cook than a typical packet of ramen takes to get the same consistency. I assure you, they are FAR from mush. Despite the cooking long time though, I buy them because they actually have a better consistency than most ramen.

[blubblubblub]

oh interesting

[BlueWalker]

*Despite the long cooking time...

I also buy these noodles because they don't have palm oil in them, which the palm oil industry is HORRENDOUS for the environment. Literally ALL ramen is made with palm oil or palm oil derivatives in it. I missed eating ramen because of that and decided to learn how to make my own using noodles without palm oil in them. In fact, I just made some for lunch today.

[blubblubblub]

oh yeah, i need to be more conscious of that eeks. i use the ones pictured above and they too have palm oil in them, what company do u use?

[BlueWalker]

Well, the noodles I buy are just plain noodles with no oil in them. I just make my own broth with several Asian-inspired ingredients. It's not authentic (it doesn't have to be), but it tastes amazing. Better than 95% of packaged ramen in my humble opinion. 😊

There is a brand of ramen I found that looked interesting that didn't have palm oil in it (it was literally like the only one), but I can't remember the name of the company. I'll look for it and if I can find it I'll post it here for you. 🙂

[BlueWalker]

Wow! I found it right away! lol The company is called Koyo. 🙂 They make higher quality ramen with organic noodles. It was one of the only ones that looked any good that I could find without any palm oil in it. Have a look at the website below. You can find Koyo on Amazon, but they are more expensive than regular ramen (mostly because they have organic noodles). But again, they are better quality too. Anyway, here you go. 🙂...

Just click on the "products" tab at the top of their website's homepage to see their ramen selection.

[HOAAH]

Not 2 minutes... turn off the heat around 1.5 minutes and let it sit.

[blubblubblub]

w h a t, less than 2

[Drener]

If u have plenty of hot water u can fix it quicker then 2 min

[blubblubblub]

n o oo oo

[mooky06]

It probably takes more then 2 minutes. Only because it takes 1-2 minutes for the water to boil in the pot

[ATuairiscean]

Depends on your personal taste and texture you want them

[blubblubblub]

i like them sloppy

[ATuairiscean]

Then you are a 2 minute plus person

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I usually go by what the package says and i cook them in
microwave for like 5 minutes cause sometimes the water
is not at boiling point to make the noodles cook. Now with
egg noodles i cook them 8-12 minutes.

[DinaM]

I just put them in a bowl, add hot water and then wait for five minutes or so, usually while checking my e-mail or something..

[anmari2001]

4mins in the microwave to make sure they are well cooked, trust me I am living on my own, the first year this was my everyday meal

[AcidT0y]

I only eat 4 minute noodles because I'm classy like that.

[blubblubblub]

[CarpetDenim]

Instant noodles take 3 minutes to cook, but I only cook them for like 2 and a half minutes
