Ramen is a Japanese dish that consists of noodles, broth, and usually some type of protein. It’s a popular dish among college students and busy professionals because it’s quick and easy to make. But what about raw ramen?

Can you eat it straight out of the package? Let’s find out.\n\nRaw ramen noodles are made from wheat flour, water, salt, and kansui, which is a type of alkaline water.

Kansui gives the noodles their firm texture and yellow color. Most brands of ramen noodles sold in the United States are precooked, so they can be eaten straight out of the package. However, there are a few brands that sell raw ramen noodles.

If you’re using raw ramen noodles, you’ll need to cook them before eating.\n\nTo cook raw ramen noodles, bring a pot of water to a boil and add the noodles. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until they’re soft.

Drain the noodles and add them to your favorite soup or sauce recipe. <\/p>\n \n
