That mayo/egg/garlic hack is definitely a game-changer for soup-based ramen. One of my favourite hacks is to use the Buldak 2x spicy chicken ramen, and add a spoonful of peanut butter to it, and I'll sometimes put a bit of Gochujang in there, but I'm definitely gonna try that full-on peanut sauce now. I also like to top mine with some sichimi togarashi or some spicy chili crisp.
Josh from Mythical Kitchen put out a video a couple years ago with his hacks, and one worth trying is the French onion soup ramen. Delicious.
That sounds awesome to me!
I've definitely gotta try that, I'm extremely weird where i will add yogurt to my instant ramen as it gives it a nice creamy texture lol
@@Nabee_H not weird at all! Tonkotsu broth is creamy so you are actually making it closer to the real thing
Buldak with a spoonful of peanut butter is a fantastic combo. You crazy for the 2x spice though 😂
It's a total umami overload, but it's a nice treat once in a while. I'm a big spicy food guy, and the 2x Buldak has that perfect level of heat for me. If you put the sichimi togarashi or the chili crisp on and you're eating it with chopsticks, though, be careful. Slurping a piece of chili to the back of your throat really sucks.
*Poach the egg in with the Ramen noodles. When the noodles are about 2/3 done give it a few spins and plop your raw egg in. By the time your noodles are done the egg will be poached. Doing it this way also adds a nice coating to the noodles that makes them amazing!*
I agree! I do this quite a bit when I'm making ramen at home, although I usually remove the noodles and poach the egg in the leftover liquid
I do this all the time! It always comes out great!
@@kellifedds6358 😃👍
@@thatdudecancook *easier to do it all at once, though but I'm sure it all tastes the same in the end.
I've tried putting whole eggs in while the noodles are still cooking, and just ended up with scrambled eggs. The boiling water seemed to tear them apart. Any tips?
For myself
1- 2:40 kewpie mayo ramen
2- 3:37 peanut butter ramen
3- 5:00 american cheese ramen
4- 6:20 carbonara ramen
5- 8:05 chili oil ramen
6- 9:22 kimchi ramen
7- 10:30 ginger ale ramen
thank you!
Doing god work my guy
Perfect 🔥
How do I like save this comment for future reference lol
@@Kulpythekulpstertake a picture or put it in your notes that you can make with recipes in it
The peanut butter and mayo/egg/garlic recipes have literally changed the way I snack. I thought that Ramen was just a salty thing to satisfy a craving, but now with a touch more effort I can make just a very satisfying bowl of food if I need a rapid lunch or something. Amazing!
I eat mine raw right out the packet tbh. They're lucky if they even get to see boiling water.
Ah, the caveman method.
No the north Korean method
Why
I hope you weren't in jail long 😅
Prison popcorn. I hated it.
Loved the style of this video. It's great to see a bunch of different variations of commonly made dishes. Please make more like this. (Grilled chicken, pork, grilled cheese, wings, burgers, etc)
Happy you enjoyed it! great idea
The most important thing ppl never say, room temperature eggs or straight from fridge? Huge difference in timing
Btw, I love you ❤️
Thoughts of confit whole turkey?
@@cbTimisacat The difference between 40 F and 70 F isn't going to make a huge difference when the amount of volume you're trying to cook through is 1 egg. You're adding 212ish F water to it. If you're concerned, just add a bit of extra water to ensure the eggs are cooked, but in the US raw eggs are really not a concern anymore. The commonly cited reason you're not supposed to eat raw cookie dough is because of the eggs, but it's actually because of the flour. Raw flour can be nasty, nasty stuff. Raw eggs, not so much.
Thank you for all these great ramen noodles variations. I have a bunch of ramen in my pantry and everyone in my house is sick of plain ramen, so am going to try all your recipes this week to reignite our love for ramen. Adding ginger ale to the 7th sauce was a nice touch. Some Koreans (including me) add 7up to the gochujang sauce for bibim naengmyeon, and this totally reminded me of that.
I just tried that first one with regular mayo, diced ham, a touch of sesame oil, and some leftover pico. Using the same bowl to scramble and cook the egg made preping it super easy and it came out delicious!
I saw your channel grow. I feel like I've grown with you because you're a great chef. Thank you for teaching us. BTW, my husband and I love the rosemary salt. If you know, you know, oh, and we love you too 😘
Love this style of video - reminds me of how mom used to make Hawaiian saimen for us as kids with a bunch of toppings we could pick and choose from. Loved it. I fry small pieces of bacon, get crispy and save half the grease for tomorrow’s eggs - then add chopped mushrooms to the pan to sweat. Meanwhile have an egg or two in one of those $8 hard/soft egg cookers and make them just slightly more cooked than soft boiled. After the mushroom sweat, I break up the ramen and put in the pan, then powder pack, a small spoon of kimchi and water. Cook for a minute or two until I can break up the noodles. On top I put three hands full of 50/50 salad mix (spring greens and spinach), and finish cooking. Usually I’ll add some slices of colby jack, which makes it a creamy broth. And the medium boiled eggs on top. Amazing. Need to add peanut oil next time!
Watching this from Korea. Heaven knows we're damn serious when it comes to instant ramen. Your vids will be a lot of help. Love your content, keep up the great culinary work!❤
Man i just wanted to say the production quality has increased so much ! we love to see it!
as always great video
I love adding chicken broth or some other kind of broth in lieu of the water for the broth! And fermented chili paste. Love your videos as always man!
Yup! great way to step up your ramen
Yup! That's what I was going to say... ☺
death by sodium in one bowl.
Amazing tips!
For the garlic, I have been sprinkling some salt on it and crushing/smearing it with the knife to get the oils activated and that really enhances the garlic flavor! I love garlic lol
I tried out the first one with a few additions of my own and it was fantastic. All I added was some ginger and onion powder, oyster sauce and fish sauce. Really tasty! Thank you so much for the ideas!
The American cheese ramen is SOOOOO amazing you guys. Mind blowing. I made mine with extra seasonings of choice and sautéed carrots and mixed greens, soft boiled egg. SO good.
Always love seeing you’re vids man!! I come here just to watch them just because after work!
You read my mind, Sonny! I love shoyu tamago and a bit of fish sauce too! I recently found shin ramyun Green in my local grocery, it's a bit more laid back with mushrooms and tofu than the original. Shin black is still fire though! Scallions, cheese, kewpie, kimchi, mushrooms , everything bagel...the possibilities are endless!❤️
I love how when you make any sort of creative riff on an Italian dish you have to give a disclaimer 😂 them Italians are relentless
Best ramen hack video I've seen, great concepts and you actually did a good job keeping the primary two ramen concepts intact: speed and cost!
Learning how to temper eggs is an "advanced" culinary technique that is very easy, and it's a great hack to make things creamy without dairy.
I love that you picked shin ramen. It’s just the best. I’ll have to try some of these!
When you mentioned the egg, mayo, garlic trick I thought, it would be cool to make carbonara-style ramen. Low and behold you did it too! Always look forward to your content. ❤
Loved this style of video! I will definitely be trying some of these, thank you so much for these amazing ideas!
DUDE! I absolutely LOVE your videos! Just watched your cottage pie video and the growth from there to this video... Wow! Keep rocking!
My primary ingredient in ramen is a lot of cabbage, sliced thin, cooked with the noodles. I usually add other ingedients (leftover meat, shrimp, seasoned taco meat, whatever}, and 'float' a couple eggs on top. I like the yolks runny. Top with scallions and cheese if desired.

As someone who never cooks things, I made the American cheese one. It was SO GOOD. So simple, and made me so astonished that I could make something like that so fast! Thank you so much ❤❤.
LOL RIGHT?!?!?!?!
I’ve been eating Ramen since spending a year in Korea 48 years ago. I thought I made a mean ramen, including peanut butter and eggs. But your method takes it to a whole new level. I mixed peanut butter and egg last night. Awesome.
I hate ur fridge beat downs but I love ur recipes. U have given me so many ideas that I can’t thank u enough Arigatou 🙏🏼
The Peanut Butter sauce one looks so bomb. I do something similar, (too lazy for minced garlic, usually,) but it will jump up in flavor and texture if you garnish with furikake (A Japanese dry condiment, that is a mix of seaweed, spices, dried fish, and other delicious things,) or, even better, Everything Bagel Seasoning. It has sesame seeds, dry garlic and onion, and big crystal salt, it's UH-mazing!
[NOTE: I wrote this comment before Sonny used both my suggestions in his recipes, making me look redundant and foolish.]
Hahahaha gotcha! I agree it’s a must have Japanese spice
The peanut butter hack reminds me of a satay sauce.
@@kentmarsh6442does it taste good?
@@444.slickk yes, it was so easy, quick and tasty!
The biggest challenge I had was following his lightning fast instructions while I had already started the ramen cooking. He goes over them so quickly, it was more work to roll the video back while making this dish than it was to actually make the dish!
The peanut butter dish was so good, I'm going to make ramen again (2x in one day) with the basic recipe that has garlic mayo sauce.
it REALLY steps up the game on such a cheap, simple staple!
Just made the peanut butter ramen recipe and, like everything else I’ve tried of yours, it’s out of this world delicious! Can’t wait to try the rest
He can't cook but he can steal other people's ideas
@@miked3168 dude, get a grip. All of the food TH-cam people are ripping people off. Sonny is legit, and has provided insanely awesome content, instruction, and ideas. Cooking is about sharing and enjoying good food with people. Don’t be such a negative prick.
@@miked3168 just keep living this negative life of yours bud, he obviously knows much more than you when it comes to food.
I really liked this video! So many great and creative ways to upgrade the Instant Ramen game! I would love to see more videos in this style.
This is cool. I think many people that experienced living as a broke student ended up concocting 1 or 2 things they enjoyed that were both cheap and easy to make, since no money and also no shame about what you were eating. I have a few myself and I always wondered what I am missing out on that others came up with. The thought didn't even occur to me that a professional chef might divulge some of these. I figured there would be too much snobbery to allow themselves to go there. Would love to see more videos like this for sure.
Bro I love your vids keep up the work❤❤❤
My favorite cooking channel 🫡
Yours used to be one of my favourites back when u had 50k ish subs but you don't even voice over your videos anymore smh
Ginger ale in ramen is totally inspired! I'll also be trying the egg/garlic and mayo version. Great video 😊
Best Ramen noodle vids I've ever seen. so useful for everyone. THANK YOU!
Hope this gave you all some ideas for your next bowl of Instant ramen noodles my friends and as always HAPPY COOKING!!!
10/10, love your videos.
Its FOO-REE-KAH-KEH! Love your videos!!!
Dude you made a supra smart decision by making your videos funny too
HP sauce, sour cream, Lee Kum Kee Chicken Bouillon on my ramen. Your video makes me feel less weird about it
What brand Ramen noodles do you use? You ROCK!
I made the chili oil one a couple of times before, and let me tell you, it's nuts how good it is relative to the little effort that goes into it
the chilli oil one is about the only authentic you can get in china.. this one is chinese tho. not japanese
Love Love Love the Screaming in the Pillow!! It's Great!!
My husband bought me my first noodle bowl and the spoon/chopsticks and I adore ramen so I'm looking forward to trying these out Thank you for the great ideas and a really fun and entertaining video and my favorite drink is Ginger Ale so this is a great fusion idea
This is my favorite cooking 😋 channel the BEST
Always loved adding american cheese to my raman! Way better than just powder packet and veggies!
That's the cheese
Thanks for the video. I love these hacks! Now I have new recipes to try. I usually use the Buldak spicy chicken ramen but sometimes the milder kind too.
Thanks bro! I've been eating Ramen for a hundred years and love all your recipes..
Haha the pillow scream
What is ‘the pillow scream’ ? What does it mean? @karlorajnovic544 I haven’t heard of that before. Can you or someone please please explain and/or clarify what this means please. Thank you so very much in advance for your reply and your response.
When food is just so freaking good, there are no words, but you *feel* things in your soul and just have to let it out. 😊
I love all your videos! Also, my 3 and 2 year old kids always shout "youuuu know I love you and I'm out!" with you 🤣 although it sounds more like *Slipknot lyrics, and I'm out!* 🤣
I wish I could give this comment two thumbs up for each of your kiddos
@@REY-RUM 2 thumbs up it is!! Fellow Slipknot fan?!
Sonny, you're killing it with this video! Great recipes
They all look phenomenal! Saving this video and checking out your others. Hello from Idaho USA.
0:45 for any egg boiling operation, I highly recommend piercing the shell at the blunt end of the egg using an egg piercer. Inside the blunt end, there is an air pocket. When you put an egg into hot water, the air in this pocket pressurizes due to rapidly heating up to boiling temperature. This pressure can cause the egg to crack. Piercing the shell lets the air bubble out. By letting the air bubble out, not only do you prevent egg cracking due to overpressure from the air being heated, but letting the air out also lets the egg expand as it cooks. A fresh egg should fill out that divot completely so your peeled egg doesn't have that flat spot at the blunt end.
Piercing the shell also makes the egg easier to peel. When you quench the egg in ice water to arrest the cooking, the cooling of the air in that pocket sucks water into that pocket, and that makes it easier to peel the egg, because water ends up getting between the egg and the shell.
I have literally searching a instant ramen recipe for hours and then i opened youtube again and saw your video
Thanks
Second time trying the peanut butter one and I can’t get enough of it. Your recipes are goated
Love your videos man thank u 🙏 I saw one earlier where you were promoting your book and it was the first time I seen your first name 😂 loving your work Sonny ❤
Eye am surprised you did not add coconut milk to a spicy ramen. Like Chile flavoured or that
Buldak (super spicy, don't use the whole packet of spicy syrup), then some granulated ginger, lime juice, and garnish with cilantro. If you want, you can also add honey roasted cashews, broccoli and chicken. Granulated garlic and soy or teriyaki won't suck either. Eye live in a motel and cook with a microwave and toaster oven, and this is one of my favourite recipes. And, like The Dude, I always pull out a minute early.
Mud in your eyes
Uncle Roger might have something to say about this!!! Love your stuff, anything I've made of yours has turned out amazing x
Okay, now you've made me craving ramen and I can't wait to try some of these recipes. 👌 Thanks for the ideas!
Just tried the Mayo and egg trick and it definitely surprised me. I used my pork maruchan noodles and I don’t have any dehydrated veggies so I just went with green onions.
I added minced garlic and the juice + cooked turkey bacon on top of that. Came out amazing IMO
Ok, but what if you mix the egg, cheese and peanut butter broth together!?!
I had some Korean neighbors who lived across the hall from me during my freshman year of college. They offered me shin ramyun noodles at one point and I threw away all of the Maruchan I owned.
I absolutely only make the shin ramyun with eggs from this point on.
welcome to the club. the next level is the army stew.
This is great!!! The ramen looks amazing, I will definitely try each. But, the fridge kicking just throws this over the top - so good! 😂
my mom’s side of the family is from ecuador, so i grew up eating a dish involving hominy [alkalized maize] cooked in a peanut butter-based sauce. i haven’t had it in a long time, but seeing your peanut butter ramen made me think of my mom’s cooking :] thanks much for the cool idea
God I love instant noodles, looking forward to this one 😋
You should definitely try adding plain yogurt to it
I rocked that spoon trick tonight for the eggs. Black magic goodness. This channel has made me want to cook and have fun doing it. 🖤
If you can find Nissin Raoh at your local grocery store, I highly recommend it over any other packet ramen out there. Their Tonkatsu version is spot on.
LMAOOOO at the attack on the fridge. I'm sure it's been explained but watching you go at it makes me chuckle.
Been doing peanut butter + nanami togarashi or shichimi togarashi with my cheap ramen for ages. Never gets old for my palate. All of these hacks sound so delish!
furikake: "foo-ree-kah-kay" also: "rice's best friend"
Absolutely love each of these ideas! But sadly, you're holding yourself back by using an inferior ramen pack... Everyone knows Indo Mei is the way to go 😂🤤
Man! Another awesome breakdown. Talk about making me hungry. Can’t wait to make my Ramen with your shortcuts. Thanks as always brother!
OMGOSH! I love this channel! Especially the Pillow!
Chef Sonny, requesting you to prepare American Chop Suey in the next video.
Fun Fact : American Chop Suey is not American 🤣
thats what i was thinking, he kept saying american ramen, wait till he finds out they all come from east asia
Fried eggs: to fry an egg use the smallest pan imaginable on high heat with a dot of water in the oil. Then, when its spitting at you like your mother in law when she hears you are moving away to further your career instead of your husbands, shimmy that hen-struation around trying to get the oil over the top of the whites as much as possible without starting a fire or needing a skin graft. Yolky, crispy edged heaven that will make you forget your mother in law is telling everyone on fb your job is a front for your real profession as a call girl.
Stumbled across this, instantly one of my favorite youtube videos ever. Thank you!
Sooo goood!!! I especially love the way the eggs make googlie eyes on the delicious ramen dishes
I dont like ramen anymore...
This video was fun 😂🙌🏽 Loved it!
Spent over an hour looking for THE recipe for ME. FINALLY!!! Thank you
I think after just this one video, I think I'm going to be sticking around and subscribing. I love your energy, man. Food looks fantastic, too.
Dude, I’ve been watching your videos for about a year now. One of the things I like is you give out the ingredient list and measurements below. Why change for this one? I’ve made many of your dishes and love them. Keep up the good work.
Yes! I’ve been waiting for you to make some Ramen!
The last one sounds like it’d go great with some pork. Ginger, peanut and pork go pretty well together.
Definitely interested in that kimchi one for my dad who enjoys both kimchi and American cheese.
Not only great recipes, but also made me laugh alot, great channel, subscribed already
Love this guy😊! Will definitely try some of these ramen hacks!!
I make a peanut sauce for my ramen noodles almost weekly. Saute minced garlic and onion in avocado oil, add a dash of sesame oil, a generous TB of peanut butter, big squirt of Siracha, a TB of soy sauce, dash of kecap manis to boost the sweetness, the ramen flavoring package (add some cayenne unless it's a chili based ramen flavor). Add a dash of oyster sauce if you want a bit more savory. It's my go-to quick lunch.
Super creative & inspiring! Just discovered your channel and you are hilarious & a awesome chef! Keep up the great work! You have a new subscriber sir!
So glad you did this video!
You can also steam them with a lid on the pan and not too much water and keep them in the square shape . Some years ago there was a fad in New York of ramen burgers that inspired me to figure out how to make them not lose their original form 😂
Thanks, I love your videos. Im definately trying these, maybe all.
Fantastic ideas! Thank you 🙏🏻
Watched some of your vid before, but this one earn you a subscribe, great vid man
Great video! I love ramen and I love your enthusiasm. Although, you seemed a little down in this one. Hey, we all have rough days. Just remember that you have tons of fans and you're helping us make delicious food. Don't sweat the fridge...I'm sure it was deserved.
I appreciate you just made my life infinitely better from this point on 😮
Seen a few of your recipes and liked them. Saw a video or too, thought it was solid.
But when I saw you kick that fridge… that’s when I knew, that this is a dope channel
I've never clicked the subscribe button so fast in my life 😂😂😂 i lost my shit when he kicked the fridge 😂😂
All of these seem fantastic. Great video
I just tried cooking peanut butter ramen yesterday and it was so delicious! I will try your recipe next time, they look heavenly too :)
you are pure entertainment... Oh yeah I'm gonna try some of these. I do the chili oil one but I do it in the pan.
I must try them all. Thanks for sharing
That dude kicks the fridge. Hell yeah. Subscribed! And the ramen recipes look fire.
1st one I did exactly like you showed and did it with shrimp flavored ramen. The only thing I added that you didn't was dried seaweed cut up into strips. Delicious. Can't wait to try the peanut butter one next.
I've just made the one with nayo/egg/garlic and it was definitely delicious! Thanks! 😊
What the hell is “nayo”?????
When I was stationed in Korea in 1998, our favorite ramen was cheesy ramen. Spicy ramen with melted American cheese. Sometimes with cut up hotdogs. Yum!
