About this ramen

Black Pepper & Beef is part of Samyang's MEP line, which the company built around heat from spices other than chili. Here black pepper is the star, backed by beef bone extract, stir-fried onion, garlic and ginger. A little red pepper powder rounds out the spice without taking over. Plant-based protein pieces, bok choy and shiitake come in the flake packet. Samyang positions it as a more layered, less fiery alternative to typical red ramyun.
