- Cook the Noodles Properly: Follow the package instructions for the noodles. Overcooked noodles will lose their texture.
- Add Fresh Veggies: Vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, and bok choy add color and crunch to the dish.
- Don’t Skip the Toppings: Toppings like green onions, sesame seeds, and chili paste give your ramen extra flavor.
- Customize the Broth: If you like your ramen spicier, add chili oil or red pepper flakes.
