You have clearly never eaten too old ramen. By too old, I don't mean like a month after the date, I mean like 4 years after.

All ramen brands are flash fried. The porousity created by that method is why the noodles re-hydrate easier than pretty much any other noodles. That's also why a 4oz package of noodles is 510 calories, beating out the 100 calories/oz of dried pasta, because it's not just carbs, there's also a very thin layer of oil fats covering them. That oil is what goes bad; it becomes rancid. Not dangerous to eat, but you will taste it.

Also when you cook it, before you add the seasoning, can see a small amount of the oil in the broth.

One "hack" I've seen online is to mix about half of the seasoning in a bowl with about 1/2 tbsp mayonnaise (Japanese mayo has a better flavor for this in my opinion, but regular American mayo works too) and the fat really helps cut the spice and adds richness to the broth. After you finish boiling the noodles with the rest of the seasoning, pour into your mayo concoction slowly and mix as you pour. It sounded weird to me at first too.

The way I cooked these is use water to boil it until 70% al dente. Drain the water and rinse in cold water. boil fresh water add the seasoning. Once boiled, add back the ramen and wait for boil again. Crack an egg on top and covered the lid for 3 minutes.

I think this is the most insane thing I've ever seen posted on the internet

May be good for you but I'm anything but a mayo fan and I'm picturing my wife's reaction if I use up the last of HER mayo...

Not sure what you find insane. Cooking half way and changing fresh water in the middle is a thing Smilie I (and many from my culture) have been cooking instant noodles like this since my childhood.

Sounds like a lot of extra time and energy, for not much benefit.

Check the expiration date on these when you get them. Last time I ordered they expired a month after delivered. Amazon refunded after I chatted in
What's to go bad in Ramen? These Ramen packets will still be edible when nothing but cockroaches live on the earth.

Anyone know where you can buy the Anchovie/beef stock seasoning that comes in the Shin Black (U.S) stovetop ramen? Comes with 3 individual flavor packets?
Also, where some of the dried mushrooms/vegetables can be had? Prefer to get packaged individually, but even in a bulk bag would be ok.

Original Shin is great, but once you go Shin Black, you'll never go back.

Tastes good but only use a little bit of the packet. That's where most of the sodium is!

You are a machine. The fact you add this total packet, after the water is drained , directly onto the noodle tells me you are a total psycopath. :-)
That's still less spicy than the fire noodles
