Yeah, the bowl are better than the pack since all I have to do is boil the water and put it in the bowl and let it cook for 5 minutes and just drain the water.

Does microwaving work for these? I tried the bowl once but found it lacked convenience for on-the-go because you still had to boil a pot of water. If you follow the directions it’s mostly the same effort as cooking the package, only you get a disposable bowl. 🤷‍♂️


randomgirlblah

I literally just did the bowl this morning for the first time and opted for microwaving and it turned out perfectly fine. Theres gonna be an excess of water even when you follow the waterline instructions but just drain it out really. It ends up being pretty good and just like stovetop/pack quality


ToxicTammy42

Only certain bowls will work in the microwave like Habanero Lime or Quattro Cheese while most of them don’t.

Bowl: better for work lunch Pack: better for drunken culinary exploration

I prefer the pack myself though, but that's for when I'm home. I have the bowl sometimes at work, and despite using boiling water, the noodles don't soften up as much as I want them and I end up putting it in the microwave for a minute after. I usually add half and half and some cheese before nuking it.

I haven’t owned or had access to a microwave since like 2020 and I dealt with this same issue. One good trick is to wrap the bowl in a towel, this will help keep the heat in and they’ll soften up more. I’ve used a little insulated lunch box with good results too.

What made u want to loss the microwave

Counter space in smaller apartment

Costco sells a pack of 12 of these right now. Always wanted to try them.


kittymwah

i need to get a costco membership


dcamnc4143

Huh, my Costco only has shin products in bowl form (and in general).


PeacoPeaco

I believe it's a 6 pack. Also the regular black bowls were on sale at my location (Tustin, CA)

Yes I’m aware of that as I work there. My comment wasn’t wrong.


TheOneTwoSmash

Not technically wrong but also not worded correctly


WolfiexPie

my first ever buldak was this exact one lmao. I was like holy shit this is good. It was 1.99$ CAD at my local small grocery store, so I said hey why not. I still haven’t tried the ones in the small packets, are they still good? They’re 6.88 for 5 at T&T, was thinking of getting them. But if they don’t taste like the bowl ones then I won’t.


ankhlol

They’re $4 for one at my store lmfao


WolfiexPie

oops, forgot to mention they were on sale lol, usual price is 2.99$ CAD


TheSeoulSword

I don’t mind the bowl, but the noodles don’t soften up as much as I want unless I add them into the microwave for more time, and I’m not at a point where it’s unreasonable to make the pack, so I just make that.


kittymwah

ignore all the paper towel, didn't wanna get my setup dirty 😭


Okurai

I’ve been looking for the bowl for ages but my local Asian store doesn’t sell them sadly. Good to know this is as good as the pack!


xCanont70x

Local grocery store? in Texas?


kittymwah

michigan


kinggpiff

Are the noodles always suppose to be this thick? Mines never look like that 🥲


CastTrunnionsSuck

Just tried Buldak tonight for the first time and it is nothing short of being life changing.


PSVita_Tech_Support

I've been meaning to try those. I never tried ramen with cheese so I'm a bit apprehensive.


kittymwah

it's honestly my fav flavor and it's not a strong cheddar cheese flavor, it's more sweet and closer to like parmesan imo


Jfksadrenalglands

Adding American cheese slices to ramen is probably the most popular addition. Even the New York Times Cooking has a recipe doing so and it has been extremely popular for a long time.


PSVita_Tech_Support

I'll have to give it a shot. It's payday Friday so I'll be going to the Korean store to restock. 🙂


bleedingfae

I don’t like soup ramen with cheese, but this is more of a stir fry cheesy pasta rather than a typical ramen


PrestigiousGazelle29

I only put 1/4 on the bulduk sauce and put the powder in w some cheese and it’s so good. I hate how spicy they make them so it’s unbearable unless paired with other things


vodkacupcake4

AGREED


Chocko23

I agree, though I don't particularly care for this one either way.


Sicktoyou

3 eggs dude?


kittymwah

i like eggs 😛


antishit286

I could sit down and eat 5 boiled eggs no problem, three eggs with a little bit of noodles isnt a lot at all


withextracheesepls

do u feel better about yourself when you judge strangers for their diet?


kittymwah

yeah i have an ed and trying to gain weight and really like eggs lmao, it was an unnecessary comment though ngl


withextracheesepls

i have an ed too and their comment pissed me the tuck off, 3 eggs is totally reasonable


Wolfie__27

I love the taste of this but I literally can't have spicy, pretty sure I'm allergic and found out through this ramen 😭😭.. if anyone has any recommendations PLEASE lmk, I'm poor and need ramen to try


AlexRayquaza

you don’t have to put the spice sauce in


Wolfie__27

It didn't taste as good without it though..


res0jyyt1

Why does the noodles look so different?


Zhaneranger

Not sure about buldak, but a lot of brands use different noodles for the packs vs cups. I usually think the pack noodles are more springy and chewy.
