About this ramen

Shin Ramyun is Nongshim's flagship spicy noodle, and this pack is the original recipe. Its broth combines beef bone extract, beef fat and soybean paste with a generous dose of red chili pepper. It measures around 3,400 Scoville heat units — a solid kick, but far from the extreme-heat noodles. Dried bok choy, mushroom, carrot and green onion flakes rehydrate in the pot. Its listed allergens are only wheat and soy, but the beef-based broth means it isn't vegetarian.
