Today, we’ve got a sunbaked noodle. Forest Noodles dried their noodles in the sun – which means no sun, no noodles. This variety is served cold – let’s check it out!
Here’s the back of the package (click to enlarge). Looks to be meat free but check for yourself. To prepare, boil a pot of water and add some salt. Add noodle block and cook 5.5-6.5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Add in contents of sachets. Stir and enjoy!
The noodle block.
The first of two sachets.
Smells like sesame and soy.
The second sachet.
Has a bright and spicy scent.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added Chinese sausage and pepper flakes. The noodles are about 3 times as wide as your standard instant and a little thicker. They are quite chewy and hearty. The flavor is pretty good – soy, spicy and a nice oil all go together very well. 4.0 out of 5.0 stars.
