What it is

To prepare, simply empty the contents of one packet into a heatproof bowl. Add about 6 ounces (180ml) of boiling water. Stir well until the powder is completely dissolved and the ingredients are evenly distributed. Allow it to sit for a minute to let the flavors meld. You can adjust the amount of water to achieve your preferred broth consistency and saltiness. For a heartier meal, consider adding cooked noodles or extra vegetables.
