Nongshim Ramen Noodles, Gourmet Instant Ramen, Premium Microwavable Noodle Soup, Spicy Shin, Family Pack, 4.23 Ounce (Pack of 16)

Great noodles with really rich broth. I will say depending on your spice tolerance it could possibly be too spicy. I have a relatively medium spice tolerance (I can eat jalapeños and not be phased) and I can feel some heat from it.

Nongshim Shin Ramyun has been one of the most consistently satisfying instant ramen options I’ve tried. The broth has a deep, rich flavor with a strong spicy kick that makes it stand out compared to many milder instant noodles. The noodles themselves are thicker and chewier than typical instant ramen, which gives the soup a much more substantial and satisfying texture. The seasoning packet creates a broth that tastes layered and savory rather than just salty. It’s great on its own, but it also works well as a base for quick upgrades like adding eggs, vegetables, tofu, or leftover meat. The portion size is filling, and the family pack makes it convenient to keep several on hand for quick meals. One helpful tip is to crack an egg directly into the soup during the last minute of cooking for extra richness and protein. It’s also worth adding green onions or a handful of frozen vegetables to balance the heat and enhance the flavor. Overall, this is a flavorful and hearty instant ramen that delivers a satisfying combination of spice, texture, and convenience.

UUUgh I'm full and happy. Was going to wait till I had a bowl without add-ons but whatev. It's delicious. Probably will be a staple in my kitchen from here on out. Didn't need all the water that package recommends when it came time to make my bowl so I poured some out, glad I did, otherwise I wouldn't be able to breath righ now. If you're a broth drinker I recommend to do the same. Texture - no problems, doesn't feel like I'm eating top ramen or the other super cheap types. Similar but better. Flavor - Nice and spicy but it doesn't linger to too long. Definitely very salty so I'll probably cut back on the "base" flavor packet most times. The other little packet added nice character. Pro tips- add an egg the second you start heating up the water, by the time soup is cooked, boiled egg is ready. Mash it up in there for flavor, texture and protein. Also add some veggies or leftovers and you'll have a fun budget meal.

Spicy and good... one of the best brand

The noodles themselves are really good, thick, chewy, and the portion size feels satisfying compared to a lot of other instant ramen brands. It definitely feels filling and the texture of the noodles is one of the best parts. For me though, the broth was a little too spicy, and the heat kind of overpowered the actual flavor. I mostly just tasted spice instead of a richer broth flavor. That said, if you enjoy very spicy ramen, this might be perfect for you since a lot of people seem to love the heat level. Overall, the noodle quality and portion size are great, but the spice level may not be for everyone.
