Samyang Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen - Jjajang (Pack of 5)

Y'all. I'm not good with spice, but it's a work in progress and I'm building on it. It's very tasty when you think of Jjajang noodles as a norm with mild spice. These are very good and the nicest of this ramen range that I've tried. I deffo recommend trying it on it's own so you experience it at it's core. It's hot. Like my mouth was burning, my lips were on fire, breathing air was like inhaling heat; however, I just really like it and keep eating. I personally like to add a poached egg or 2 (or fried if you prefer) add in some peas (you do get a few in the dried veggie sachet), some cheese slices (dairylea or burger cheese, the plastic kind lol) and then some spring onion finely sliced or leek if you want something a bit more mild that spring onion to use as a sprinkle on top. This just adds to it and the flavour and yeah. Perfect meal for me. If you wanna add something extra, when your noodles are cooked, put a bit more than the recommended amount of the hot noodle water into a sauce pan and add the Jjajang sauce in and mix it on a medium-high heat. Then get you some premade rice cakes (tteokbokki) and cook 'em in that water on the hob. When they're ready, turn that heat on low or off the heat, pour your noodles in and combine for yum and then any other things to want to add to make it your own. A final thing to add is that, if you've had a rough week, have this. Eating something spicy and sweating it out, those endorphins from the heat is so good. Ok, ramble over, thank you for reading. Bye.

I was pleasantly surprised by these noodles. I bought them mostly as a novelty - I wanted to see if they were really spicy - but I chose the regular version instead of the 2x spicy variety because I didn't want to completely waste my money. They're spicy, but "tingling lips" spicy rather than "tears and mucous running down my face" spicy. As per the instructions I boiled them for five minutes and stir-fried them for a minute, with some soy sauce, and threw in some bits of cooked chicken I had lying around. The noodles are thick, sticky, probably too salty to be healthy, but not overpoweringly spicy. You can eat them as regular food, not just a kind of Youtube challenge. They're in an awkward position of being too elaborate to cook for lunch at work and not filling enough as a meal in isolation, but they're just right if you're hungover and want a snack. My only quibble is that the accessory packet is perfunctory, but that's a minor thing. NB The five-pack is surprisingly large.

This flavour is by far the best , yes it spicy and it is spicy but please need add cream or creamcheese or mayo to mix in with the noodle to cool it down and I alway have cucumber and devilled egg to bulk it out more. Yes black bean noodles 🤤

Really spicy but I like the heat. Lovely with a boiled egg

These were actually really nice!! Balance of spice and flavour!! Thesr are the best Buldak ones I personally think.

It was a bit of an odd purchase as wanted to try the ''Hot Korean Noodle Challenge'' - perhaps a bit pricier than regular noodles but that was fine as they are quite hard to find in UK and presumably have been exported from overseas. They are meant to be the first level but I found them too spicy already - just a personal opinion - I can do with a spicy curry etc. but these were too hot for me to finish comfortably. Saying this my partner enjoyed them and if you don't use the whole bean paste packet it does tamper them heat a bit. Overall texture is nice - thick, chewy noodle which I enjoyed a lot.

My spice/heat tolerance is probably 6/10 so not great, but these were just so spicy I only ate half a pack. The flavour was really nice, noodles were a nice texture and I liked the stickiness of the sauce. However, WHAM, then the heat hits and no. I know it’s personal preference, so I’m sure someone with a better spice tolerance would love these. Think I might try them next time with only half the sauce packet and see how I get on.

It took a while to arrive but i live in a pretty remote place. I love how they're spicy, but not as much as the others. I'm happy with the price

Questi sono i miei noodles preferiti, tra quelli gusto Samyang sono quelli che trovo più buoni, ma attenzione perché sono davvero piccanti, non li consiglio se non si è abituati a livelli alti di piccante. Per tutti gli altri, li consiglio vivamente!

Seehr Lecker und sehr scharf🤣

Parfait !

Muy rápido

J’ai commandé ces ramens pour tester, connaissant déjà d’autres saveurs de la marque. Je voulais essayer le goût poulet épicé mais j’ai été assez déçue. Le goût ne m’a pas plu. Il faut aussi bien doser la sauce piquante, car elle est très forte. Personnellement je ne mets pas tout le sachet, juste quelques gouttes. Cela dit, j’apprécie toujours cette marque pour ses autres saveurs, qui sont meilleures à mon goût.
