This cheesy instant ramen delivers the classic Buldak “addictive heat” but stays creamy thanks to a heavy hit of milk powder. There’s a hint of the taste of parmesan cheese, accompanied by a very noticeable sweetness.
It’s basically the original Buldak noodles but with the cheese powder packet. It doesn’t take away from the spice of the noodles though. There’s still a solid kick from the sauce packet.
To level up this bowl, I would highly recommend adding more cheese to lean into that creamy richness. Sprinkling in some fresh basil and a touch of sea salt would also help to sharpen the flavors.

Frequently Asked Questions
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!
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.
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.
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.
