Samyang Buldak Tomato Pasta Spicy Chicken Stir-Fried Ramen

Halal

Samyang Buldak Tomato Pasta Spicy Chicken is one of the few Buldaks we’ve tried where the instructions tell you to drain all the water. The other ones tell you to drain it and keep a little. I’m not sure why this one is different.

Produced in South Korea by Samyang Foods Co., Ltd.

What’s in the Package

Inside the packaging, you’ll find a square block of fried wheat noodles and two sachets. The red sachet is the Tomato Pasta Buldak liquid sauce, and the maroon and white sachet is the seasoning powder.

How to Cook Samyang Buldak Tomato Pasta Spicy Chicken Stir-Fried Ramen

1. Bring 600ml (about 2.5 cups) of water to a boil.
2. Add the noodle block and boil for 5 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and drain all the water.
4. Add the tomato liquid sauce and the seasoning powder.
5. Stir well and serve.

Note: I like to stir it over low heat for about 30 seconds so the sauce thickens and coats every noodle.

How Does It Taste

It’s pretty spicy. I think it’s spicier than the original Buldak. It’s not very tomato-y. You get little hints of it, but mostly you taste the spice. It tastes like the original Buldak with a little roasted tomato, kind of like ketchup. You can smell the cheese powder on top, and it tastes a little like pizza too.

The noodles are the standard Buldak wavy noodles.

How Does It Compare

Of the pasta style Buldaks, this one is the spiciest. The Samyang Tangle Chunky Tomato Pasta is a different Samyang tomato noodle. It tastes more like tomato and has less heat.

If you want instant noodles that actually taste like tomato, get the Omachi Spaghetti Instant Noodles. The Buldak Tomato Pasta is a spicy Buldak with a little tomato.

How to Level Up Samyang Buldak Tomato Pasta Spicy Chicken Stir-Fried Ramen

Add Italian meatballs and you basically have spaghetti. Put shredded American cheese on top and it’s like the spaghetti you ate in school.

Final Verdict

This tastes like the original Buldak with a hint of tomato, and I think it’s a little spicier. If you want real tomato flavor, look elsewhere. If you want a Buldak with a little tomato, this is it.
