Tingly Chili Ramen Noodles by David Chang, 15 meals, Vegan Instant Noodles with Spicy Chili Oil Sauce

Overall fantastic. I usually have been eating the buldak carbonara or buldak yakisoba cuz I like spicy but I prefer more of a soy sauce or curry spice taste. Sometimes noodles are too chili spiced or taste almost like buffalo sauce. These Momo ones are the best texture and best tasting noodle I’ve had, it reminds me of the texture and taste of wonton soup. I have to say the sizing is perfect too, enough thickness cut for your bowl but too long or too wide! The tingly chili sauce is definitely a nice tingle of chili, not overpowering it’s more like a salty dumpling sauce with a chili aftertaste kind of like a Szechuan or Kung Pao taste. My only complaint is it can be a little salty and you can’t really make broth with this. It’s more like a thin sauce like something you would put on pho or flavor on lo mein. Honestly though lightness isn’t a bad thing, there’s beauty in the simplicity! Noodle taste: 5/5 Noodle texture: 5/5 Noodle size: 5/5 Sauce taste: 4/5 Sauce thickness: 3/5 Overall Score 22/25 so 88% :] It’s good I would definitely get the Tingly Chili again ! 🙂

I was shocked at how delicious these are. So easy to prepare and addictive. However, the Soy and Scallion were a bit disappointing. Not nearly as flavorful as the Tingly Chili. Bought them 3 x this week!

I am a fan of Momofuku and have been to the locations in New York and Las Vegas so was very excited to see this packaged offering. I have tried the Spicy Soy and Tingly Chili flavors. Each come in 5 packs for $17.99, or $3.60/serving. For noodles, that seems a bit steep, but it is the Momofuku brand. The resulting presentation did not match the photos from the packaging nor Facebook, but that's not terribly unexpected. I was a bit disappointed in the flavor. I had to doctor both flavors I tried to get a decent heat and flavor profile. Perhaps that why they also sell Chili Crisp separately. Net-net, these are a step up from other packaged noodle offerings, but not what you would actually get at a Momofuku restaurant.

Very tasty all my friends loved it. I made all the packages at one time, inserted as a big dish

I had been hearing about the Momofuku noodles for a while and i've been wanting to try them. I would consider myself a Ramen fan and like to try the various styles and brands available. I think that gives me enough credence to write a critical review. I bought a 5 pack of the Sweet & Spicy and a 5 pack of the Tingly Chili and i just thought they were okay. I guess i should point out that this isn't "Ramen." It's more of a asian style noodle and sauce. The quality of the noodle is fine, but not exceptional and there is a small packet of liquid seasoning. The flat noodles are not fried like a regular Ramen noodle are, so this helps with the texture, but honestly i wasn't blown away by the texture anyway. The flavor of the sauce packet was a let down as well. its an okay flavor but the spicyness isnt very balanced and it just ends up being one note at the end. Ive tried these a few times now and even though the serving size is smaller for instant noodles, i haven't finished my bowl of noodles any of the times i fixed it. For reference, my favorite instant ramen is Nissin's RAOH Tonkatsu, and those go for about $2.30 a package and the noodles are far superrior to these, Plus its actually ramen, not just asian noodles and sauce. Bottom line: Decent quality but just ok in the flavor and texture department. I probably wont be buying any more.

These noodles are the best upgrade from traditional Ramen noodles with the sauce that is just amazing little bit spicy, but not overwhelming.

The noodles have a pretty good texture, but the the paltry amount of sauce provided immediately is absorbed by the noodles leaving them dry and tacky. Flavor is ok, but i definitely won't buy these again.

The actual noodles have good teste and texture. I eat ASha noodles often and these are pretty much the same, but they cost more. The flavor pack, which I guess, with all of the Momofoku chef hype, I was expecting to be more flavorful and more than just kinda salty or kinda sweet. It wasn't. The flavor was very average and the "tingly-chili" was barely there, mostly just soy flavor, not at all spicy, even after adding tbe entire packet. These Momofoku noodles are very very average tasting dried noodles and I think I'll just stick with the ASha noodles which are better flavored and cheaper.
