Nissin Cup Noodle Seafood in cup

This ramen, from Nissin Foods and manufactured here in the USA, is a good option. What really makes it unique and quite delicious are the small imitation crab cakes and dried squid bits you find in it, along with some egg. Those little seafood components are definitely a highlight.

Produced in Japan.

My one note for next time is that I’ll be sure to add a bit more water during preparation, as the powder didn’t dissolve as well as I’d hoped the first time around.

To enhance this already savory seafood-centric bowl, I think adding some crab balls would be a great way to boost that flavor and add even more substantial seafood texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine the spice level?

For the spice level, my friend James, who taste tests the ramens with me, gives his rating out of 5 based on his experience with the heat. My own spice tolerance tends to be higher than most, so James’s rating gives a more general sense of the spiciness. Keep in mind that spice is still subjective, so what’s mild for him might be spicy for you, and vice versa!

What does “Broth Viscosity” mean?

That’s how thick or thin the broth is. A 1/5 would be very watery, while a 5/5 would be super thick and almost syrupy.

How do you rate “Noodle Thickness”?

This is just a general gauge of how thick the noodles are compared to other instant ramen noodles I’ve tried. A 1/5 would be very thin, like vermicelli, and a 5/5 would be very thick and wide.

What do you mean by “Noodle Type”?

Here, I’m just describing the style or texture of the noodles, like “udon-like” for a chewy and thick noodle, or “thin and curly” for a more classic instant ramen style.

Good broth with toppings, but noodles get soggy fast. Flavour becomes tiring after a while. Perfect for nostalgia!

Think about its overall taste (savory, sweet, sour), richness, and authenticity to the advertised flavor.
Think about their texture, consistency, and how well they held up in the broth.
