Shrimp noodles are a dish that is quite familiar, especially to students and office workers.
When it comes to cooking instant noodles, have you ever wondered about the order of adding the seasoning packet and the noodles? Many people believe that it doesn’t make a difference if you add the noodles first or the seasoning packet first since they will all end up cooked and eaten in the stomach. However, this is a misconception. In reality, the order in which you add the seasoning or the noodles can impact the taste of the final dish.
To prove this theory, we invite you to join us in a simple experiment to find out the best way to cook noodles.
Step 1:
First, we will put water in two pots and bring them to a boil on the stove.
Step 2:
Next, in one pot, we will add the seasoning first and the noodles later. In the other pot, we will do the opposite.
Once the shrimp noodles are cooked, we will turn off the heat and pour them into separate bowls for tasting.
Step 3:
If you are conducting this experiment as well, please share your thoughts on the two bowls of noodles and let us know which one you think tastes better. In our experiment, we had several participants evaluate and comment on which bowl of noodles they preferred. Let’s see the results.
After tasting the two bowls of noodles, the majority of participants agreed that the one cooked by adding the noodles first was better in terms of taste and texture. The noodles added first were chewier and more flavorful, whereas the noodles added after the seasoning packet were mushy and lacked taste.
The reason behind this is that when you add the seasoning packet first, the boiling water cools down quickly. If you add the noodles at this point, they will take longer to cook and become mushy.
In addition, adding the seasoning packet first requires boiling the water again, which can diminish the unique flavor of the seasoning and make the dish less satisfying. Therefore, the best way to cook this dish is by adding the noodles first.
While instant noodles may seem like a simple dish, knowing how to prepare them properly can turn them into a delicious and enjoyable meal. Now that you know the secret to cooking tasty noodles, feel free to share it with everyone!
Good luck!
