Thai Peanut Ramen Noodles Recipe - The Salty Marshmallow (2024)

FAQs

What does peanut butter do to ramen? ›

Yep, peanut butter! It makes a brilliant addition to the noodle broth, making it silky and creamy. You only need a tablespoon to get a fantastic taste and creaminess, without overpowering the rest of the flavours.

Strain noodles and place in a medium mixing bowl. Add shredded cabbage, using tongs to toss. Toss in peanut sauce to coat noodles. Divide between 2 bowls and top with a slice of lime, peanuts, cilantro, and chilis, as desired.

Add in 1 cup of ramen broth and bring to a simmer. Add in the turmeric powder, maple syrup, Thai red curry paste, and soy sauce and combine until smooth. Add the remaining ramen broth, stir, and bring to a boil. Once the broth is boiling, add in coconut milk and bring back to a boil.

Make it spicy: In addition to herbs, consider adding some spices to your bowl. We're talking about things that add some heat, like red pepper, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and sriracha. Not only will you be adding flavor, but the heat will make you forget about salt altogether.

Eggs are a great way to add flavor and protein to your package of ramen. Prepare the noodles with seasoning and as much liquid as you like. Then, decide how you want to prepare the egg. You can boil, poach, or simmer an egg directly in the ramen.

You most certainly can add a fresh egg to your ramen; it's delicious. But don't do it over heat while the broth is at a boil unless you beat it first. If you want the egg whole, crack it in as soon as the boiling stops, and gently baste it with spoonfuls of hot broth.

Adding butter can be a quick fix for a broth lacking in fat and gelatin, two key ingredients in a truly decadent, long-cooked ramen broth. The butter melts, causing the broth to thicken and become slightly creamy; it'll make everything taste just a little more fuller and enrich the flavor with hints of dairy sweetness.

Introduction: Fried Ramen & Eggs

Works great for any meal of the day, breakfast, lunch, or dinner!

Dairy milk gives your ramen a milky, creamy character. It takes the heat out of spicy ramen and adds a thick, rich texture.

Can I put evaporated milk in ramen? ›

Add the noodles and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients: Stir in the evaporated milk, green onions, cabbage, and cook 1 minute more. Taste and add about 1 tablespoon more miso paste to taste. Serve: To serve, place the noodles into four bowls, dividing the broth on each.

Once boiling, add the ramen noodles to the pot (without the seasoning). Continue to boil for 2-3 minutes, or just until the noodles soften. Add ½ cup full-fat coconut milk to the pot and stir to combine. Make sure your coconut milk is very well mixed before measuring, so you get an even mix of the solid fat and liquid.

Shoyu ramen benefits from a clear broth that has less fat in the broth. That means it's thinner, lighter, and lower in calories. The seasoning sauce that goes in shoyu ramen is also low calorie because most of its flavor comes from soy sauce.

ADD EXTRA TEXTURES, INSTEAD OF EXTRA SODIUM

These can include braised pork belly or pork crackle, Thai-style crispy rice noodles, cashew nuts or even honey-glazed raw julienned carrots. You may also want to try adding a boiled egg and broth to turn your instant noodles into a delicious ramen-inspired meal.

The best way to use ramen noodles is to buy the type in a block and avoid using most of the season- ing, since the majority of the salt is in that seasoning pack.

Whisk ⅓ cup reserved hot cooking water into peanut butter mixture in bowl. Immediately add hot noodles to mixture; toss to coat, adding additional hot cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a time, as needed until desired consistency is reached. Serve noodles topped with peanuts, scallions, cilantro, and lime wedges.

Peanut butter contributes a nutty flavor and a rich, fatty mouthfeel and, as you might expect, makes the broth thicker. But in many ways, it depends on how the peanut butter is added. It makes a big difference whether it's blended into the broth or fried up with the noodles in a pan.
