If you’ve never eaten Top Ramen, Ramen noodles, or anything made by Maruchan… than you’ve probably never been a broke college student

This blog post is not for you.

For the other 10 million of us, this is how I make THE BEST RAMEN NOODLES…

Step 1: CRUSH. YOUR. NOODS. You’ll want to break up the giant block of sodium filled dried noodles into smaller pieces, and yes yes yes there is such a thing as over crushing. I’d say 3 or 4 hard smacks on the package will suffice.

Step 2: Add One Cup of water. I like to slightly drown my noodles in the water. Give them a nice soak, a nice bath with room temperature filtered water.

Step 3: The microwave. Put your bowl of noodles in the microwave and set the time for 4 minutes.

Step 4: Take them bad boys out.

Step 5: Add 2 seasoning packets, one chicken and one beef and stir well

Step 6: Add hot sauce and soy sauce and mix well

Step 7: ENJOY!
