About this ramen

Buldak Original Cup shrinks Samyang's signature fire noodle to a snack-size serving. It uses the same style of sauce as the pack: red pepper, soy sauce, sugar, chicken flavor and red pepper seed oil, with capsicum for heat and a hint of curry. Sesame seeds and dried seaweed come as the topping. At 70 g, it's half the size of the 140 g pack, handy for a first try at Buldak. The cup still packs the full Buldak kick, so take it slowly.
