This specific recipe will provide you with a tasty and spicy ramen noodle dish. However, if you prefer a less-spicy experience, you can very easily cut back on the spicier ingredients.
If you want even hotter ramen, combine hotter peppers, more chili flakes, and hotter ingredients, such as gochujang, with the minced garlic and ginger. Try it with these Japanese “Japones Peppers”. Nice heat!.
Traditional ramen is made with Chinese style wheat noodles. These are frequently located in supermarkets near the ramen packages or in the Asian aisle. I buy mine from a local Asian market.
I love using thin round wheat noodles. You can also make it with egg noodles. For a gluten-free diet, gluten-free noodles are also available.
For this recipe, I’m using shrimp because they’re simple to lightly poach in ramen broth. You can use other things instead, like chicken, pork, beef, fish, tofu, and more. I love a good chicken ramen or pork ramen. Try this birria ramen recipe, too.
You can use any leftover proteins you have by making ramen. Just toss them into the broth to warm up.
With this recipe, it’s simple to omit the shrimp and substitute tofu for a vegetarian alternative. Skip the chicken broth as well and use vegetable broth. Just as spicy and just as delicious!.
Ramen is VERY adaptable to different flavors and ingredients. Miso paste, fish sauce, chili sauce, rice vinegar, hot sauce, and other ingredients are common additions. Use your favorites!.
If you can’t find ramen noodles, you can substitute the chicken or beef ramen noodles that are included in pre-made ramen packages.
Simply throw away the seasoning packets that you add to boiling water and create your own instead. So much better that way!.
Thats it, my friends. I hope you enjoy my spicy ramen noodles recipe. Let me know if you make it. You crazy chiliheads, keep it hot and I’d love to hear how you changed it to make it your own!
