To prepare, bring water to a boil in a saucepan and add the noodles. Cook for the time indicated on the package, usually just a few minutes, until the noodles are tender. Drain most of the water, leaving a small amount to help the sauce adhere. Stir in the included spicy chicken-flavored sauce packet until the noodles are evenly coated.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh yakisoba, these noodles are pre-cooked and dried, requiring rehydration. The flavor profile is a specific spicy chicken seasoning, which differs from the more traditional savory or sweet sauces often found with other instant noodle varieties. The texture of the noodles is also designed to mimic stir-fried style.
Who it is for
Anyone seeking a fast and flavorful noodle dish can enjoy these.
