48. Yum Yum Kimchi Flavour

Brand: Yum Yum
Name: Kimchi Flavour
Price: 0,35 €

why is this picture so fucking crappy jolted?!?

Lately I get the feeling that the noodle soups I eat get more and more whack, effecting the posts in this blog that get equally more and more whack. What can I say? How can I apologize for that? I don't know. Maybe if I upload some pictures where my ass looks nice, hahahahaha. (That's what he said.) Well, who cares anyways? 

(=.=)

Just one pack of powder, and the powder looks not even red, but orange. After pouring boiling water and waiting...

...it just looks like any other Yum Yum noodle soup. So boring. The noodles taste pretty unspectacularly like any other Yum Yum noodles: salty, not that bad, not that outstanding either. 

The broth was quite a thing: If you expect to find any Kimchi or Kimchi flavour in here, I must tell you, my friend, that you're barking up the wrong tree. There is not the slightest hint of Kimchi, the soup is simply hot and salty, and the hotness was reaaaally whack on top of that. This soup is a great disappointment.

XXXVII. NONG SHIM Kimchi Ramyun

Brand: NONG SHIM
Name: Kimchi Ramyun
Price: 1,20 €

Hi, dear readers, if you actually exist, it's been a while since this blog was updated, my apologies for that, because the bloggers are two lazy asses aka. students.

Anyways, we get to eat a lot of ramen like this, us being poor ass students who never have enough time to cook or go shopping for fresh and healthy food, or even get their asses up to go to lectures at university, HIGH FIVE SIS!!!

This big pack of Korean ramen was pretty appealing to me, because I FUCKING LOVE Korean food, and  Kimchi. Hell yeah. Ok, picspam now.

I like the noodles, they're round... x3 The dried stuff in the clear sachet looks pretty unidentifiable, though...

et voilá, doesn't this look amazing? Kimchi frezzles everywhere, carotte slices, leek, some other brown crap ehh stuff, and a nicely red-coloured broth, what you, unfortunately, can't see on the pictures.

The noodles are okay, a little bit weird in my opinion, because they are kinda mushy on the outside and hard inside as well, but maybe you have to decide for yourself, I found them eatable actually. The taste of the soup was pretty disappointing actually: It was just salty, not hot, not even spicey. But what disappointed me the most was the lack of Kimchi-flavour. I fucking bought Kimchi-Ramen, where is my Kimchi-flavour? The sour and hot taste of that, at least, but no, this broth was just as drowsy as Lana del Rey's voice. These dried vegetable pieces left me utterly dissatisfied, I have to say.

VIII. BON GO JANG Udon Noodles with Soup Base Kimchi Flavour (part 2)

(Both my sister and I have reviewed these noodles. Check out her review here: http://qtramenreview.blogspot.de/2012/05/ii-udon-noodles-with-soup-base-kimchi.html. Note the ratings at the end haha.)

Brand: BON GO JANG

Name: Udon Noodles with Soup Base Kimchi Flavour

Price: ?

A fat and big colorful package with a nice fat bowl of noodles on the front, high-quality thick wrapping foil, noodles also wrapped in a plastic bag. Anyways, I don’t have a freaking clue what ‘no refrigeration’, ‘LONG LIFE’ and ‘no preservation’ on the package means and how these things are connected with each other and the noodle soup. Maybe my brain can’t analyze the logical meaning behind this as well. A freaking riddle. How disturbing.

Y U produce so much waste, Bon Go Jang-shi, you befoul mother earth!!! D:

What’s also quite disturbing is the shock-frozen/fart-dry brick of Kimchi that first got me thinking it had to be a bad joke.

After finishing boiling and waiting, I tried the soup and thought there were suddenly stripes of plastic foil in my fucking broth. But it turned out to be the ‘Kimchi’, or at least what tried to be Kimchi or to act like Kimchi or to fool people by making them think it’s Kimchi. So disturbing, tastes like rubbish in my soup. The broth is pretty disappointing, too, not spicy enough, plain, flavourless and insipid.

Well, the only good thing left to say maybe is about the Udon noodles. Fat, white and soft. But they deserve to be bathing in a more delicious soup. Though the colour is actually pretty nice. But the rest is still crap.

Rating: Unnie, this soup looks so expensive and was so disappointing! D+

II. Udon Noodles With Soup Base KIMCHI FLAVOUR

Hello!

This is Q.A's Udon review!

I know, first post of mine and already no ramen. xP

Anyways, I'll show my n00b of a sister, how a good posts looks like! Muhahahaha~

-

My review will be about these korean Udon Noodles. The brand is Bon Go Jang, I assume, and the noodles are called Udon Noodle Soup with Soup Base Kimchi Flavour!

The packaging is really nice. Hard foil, really nice pictures and I like the orange ombre coulour

Very pleasing to the eye, yes. ^^

Aaaaaaaand another reason I bought them is:

I will have long life!!! So awesome! I HAD to buy it! xD

What sucked, was the humongous sticker sticked on the back. The problem was, ON the sticker were NO cooking directions! And peeling it off was really a hassle, but there were at least english instructions underneath. How are non-english speakers suppose to eat this, huh?! Fail...

All the awesome stuff inside:

Let's go!

1. Boil 400ml of water in a pot.

Didn't have anything to measure the water. so I just filled half a pot. I'm a poor student ok? Why else would I life of of noodle soup. If I had money, I would be eating fast food everyday!

Boiling water, check!

2. Put noodles, soup base and kimchi block into boiling water and cook for two minutes.

(I failed at ripping it open properly so I had to use scissors to cut it open. -.-'')

(Very weird block of shock dried kimchi... I'm still not sure, what that block was... o.O)

(Well, after some cooking it melted into something kimchi-like.)

Alright!
3. Stir well and serve.

(Delicously boiling soup. *___*)

If you're asking, yes, I most of the time eat out of the pot. I don't want to wash an extra bowl, ok?!

Ok, the noodles are pretty chewy. I' more used to soft Udon, so it was a little weird... maybe I should have cooked them longer... then again, 2 minutes were written on the package. >.<

The broth, is really good! It isn't too salty and has the nice sour kimchi taste to it and a slight hottness, which is totally bearable. I really like it! I will give it a A-!
