Black Garlic “Chicken” Ramen

My initial order got lost at the post office, not Immi fault and the post office is just having a hard time right now. I contacted Kevin via email and they sent me a new order post haste and gave me a partial refund for the inconvenience. It was definitely above and beyond customer service. The soup is good, it definitely fits that craving mold for ramen. The noodles remind me of edamame noodles spaghetti noodles and the broth is very tasty. With some added veggies, I think that 1 package could easily be lunch for two. Yes it’s pricey when you think of how cheap the cheap ramen at the store is, but consider the fact that they made us an instant high quality product that we wanted. Thank you food science! All low carb convenient foods are more pricey than regular ones. I think it’s worth the price. A lot of time, energy, research, and love has gone into this product. I suggest giving it a try.

I really loved the taste, very flavorful! The only thing that could be better is the noodles. They were wooden like, no matter how long I boiled them. They didn't soak in the flavor of the broth.

I love noodles but hard to eat on low carb. So glad I found this product. Great texture, great flavor and good price!! You have to try these!!

So I bought the variety pack and the first one I tried was the black garlic chicken. I used the stovetop method and followed the directions to the letter. I added some plain chicken and a hard boiled egg as a topping once cooked. The result? Delicious! No it doesn't taste like top ramen (thank goodness). The broth was flavorful. There was not only a really nice full flavor to the broth but it had some complexity as well due to the black garlic flavoring with it. The noodles were not the usual hard block, but a packet of fresh noodles. The texture of the noodles was a different than I was used to, but I rather liked the texture. The noodles were firm but not overly so, they held together well and did not get mushy or fall apart, nor were they anything like the gelatin texture of some other low carb pasta substitutes I've tried. The noodles separated fine after stirring with a spoon while boiling. In judging this, Rather than trying to compare it to the instant ramen I used to eat, I judged this as a completely new and different idea. Well, for me, it passed with flying colors. I know it's a bit expensive for a Ramen, but when considering that it gave me back a food that I used to enjoy in a new way that is delicious, it was well worth the cost. Other low carb meals cost easily as much if not more. One other thing that surprised me, was how filling it was being so low in calorie, The fiber and protein really lasts.

Taste great but a little pricey
