HEY, HEY, HEY!!! Welcome back, ramen lovers. This week our featured ramen can be easily accessible from your local 7-11 and is a fan favorite: give it up for Nissin's Hot & Spicy Shrimp. Nissin is a japanese company that's been around since the late '40s. They're actually the ones famous for making cup noodles. Drop under a dollar for any of their products and you have yourself a delicious meal (not a plug for Nissin, I promise). With this, you'll get 3 packets - seasoning, dried vegetables and shrimp, and "soup booster." The powder turned out to be a deep reddish orange. The dried vegetables were green onion, corn, and red pepper. PreparationSo this time around, I prepared this ramen differently. As I was instructed on the bowl, it is to be made through the microwave. Instructions are easy and if you can't be trusted to use a microwave, I really don't know what to tell you other than to stay very far away from me.
The broth wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be. Also, the labels said that it had lime and it wasn't as citrusy as I hoped it would be as well. The noodles were thin and circular and absorbed the broth well. The vegetables were plentiful but I found that a lot were hiding towards the bottom of the bowl. The shrimp were briny but not as ample as the vegetables. For a quick, simple, and easy dinner, this isn't a bad flavor to go to. The broth isn't as robust or distinct as other brands, but it's really not that bad. Overall: 7/10 You patiently waited, and she sure did too. Here she is, @zuccthefrenchie in all her glory.
