I like it with Sriracha, the hot sauce with the rooster on it.

Is everyone talking about ramen noodles? Is that the same thing?

Ramen is the new sushi and you can make it at home!

You should check out Toki Underground on H Street. It is insanely good and apparently the chef is Japanese. Best ramen I ever had. I had the Toki Hakata classic.

I do this. Add have kim chi on the side. Soooo good!

Oooohh, all those recipes so great. Now, if you are insane and really want to go whole hog, check out the cookbook Momofuku by NY chef David Chang. It actually describes how to make ramen down to making your own noodles. Very involved and complicated but also very interesting.

Oh yeah (add in an egg). My husband refuses to believe anyone would actually choose to eat ramen. When I'm sick with a cold, it's all I want.

I wish I had a recipe to share! There was one ramen place I frequented in Tokyo - insanely good ramen with fried pork (tonkatsu) in a black seasame sauce. Unfortunately I don't know much more than that as to what they put in it! I would kill for a bowl right now.

This is my favorite recipe. I'll probably make it tonight. When I told my husband about it he thought I was so gross, but now he likes it.

Boil the noodles according to package instructions.

In another small pot, combine lots of ketchup, less soy sauce, and even less hot sauce (I use Texas Pete). Add a bit (les than half) of the beef seasoning packet and heat. Once warm, add chopped onions. Adjust ingredients to taste.

Drain water from noodles and add sauce. Yum!

I love it and so do my kids, but it's really not good for you, so we don't have it very often. When we do, I'll add chicken broth (or make broth from a leftover roast chicken carcass), and some frozen or fresh vegetables, so it's at least kind of healthy. The kids gobble it up.

You can add basically anything to it-I love it to especially when I'm unemployed.

I love it too. I sprinkle Tony Chachere's Cajun seasoning in it and eat it with a grilled cheese.

I love it too and eat it at least once a week. Strange I know.

What about green onions, curry powder, sliced meat, green/red peppers, green peas.

I just discovered putting Tobasco sauce in it! Yummy! Any good ideas on how to make it more interesting?
