Cielo Pozole Instant Ramen Noodle Soup

The Cielo Pozole Instant Ramen is another Cielo flavor I’ve reviewed. Like the others, it’s made in Vietnam. When I opened it, the first thing that hit me was oregano, same as the Cielo Menudo.

Produced in Vietnam by BIFOCO for Cielo Fresh Foods.

What’s in the Package

Inside the bowl, you’ll find a dried noodle block and four items. There is a dried vegetable packet, a liquid flavor base, and a dry seasoning powder. It also comes with a foldable plastic fork.

How to Cook Cielo Pozole Instant Ramen Noodle Soup

1. Peel back the lid and add the spice packets.
2. Fill the bowl with boiling water to the line.
3. Cover it tightly and let it stand for about 3 minutes.
4. Open the lid, stir the noodles and enjoy.

How Does It Taste

Once you taste it, there’s more going on. It’s very oregano-y, with a little sourness and a little cinnamon. It feels warm and cozy. It’s also not as salty as the Birria.

The spice is a 1 out of 5. The noodles are the same thin wavy ones as the other Cielo flavors.

How Does It Compare

The Cielo Birria is sweeter and milder. The Menudo is mostly oregano with a little smoky chipotle. The Pozole has the most going on, because of the cinnamon and the sourness. If you’re only trying one Cielo, start with this one.

How to Level Up Cielo Pozole Instant Ramen Noodle Soup

Shredded rotisserie chicken is great on this. Then add some cotija on top. If you want melted cheese, use Oaxaca.

Final Verdict

The Cielo Pozole Instant Ramen is my favorite Cielo so far. It’s not too salty, the cinnamon and sourness make it interesting, and the oregano makes it feel like it’s actually trying to be pozole.
