Product Review: Samyang Sriracha Ramen (South Korea)

If you know me personally, I'm addicted to noodles... but I've been delaying my cravings for instant ramen to lead a healthy lifestyle. It's actually almost a year since I bought this ramen but I knew I had to consume it because it expires today. So I'm considering this day as my cheat day. 😂 

Recently, Samyang has been very aggressive in introducing uncommon flavors in their line of products. Samyang Sriracha Ramen is one of them. I think this is their way of entering the hype being generated by the Sriracha sauce especially in the US. I love Sriracha Sauce myself particularly the one made by Huy Fong Foods. And so I have high expectations for this. 

The package includes a brick of noodles, a sachet of dehydrated veggies, and the sauce. It's basically prepared the same way as any stir-fried noodles. Unfortunately, I wadn't able to get a photo of the cooked noodles since the image I took got corrupted. Anyway, here's my take on the ramen:

As always, the noodles are chewy and has good texture typical of any good quality instant noodles. The sauce indeed has the distinct sriracha taste although the sourness was a bit overpowering. The spice level was just the right amount for me. It's good... but I don't think there would be a second purchase on my end. Just happy to try it and I'll leave it as it is. 🔥🍜
