    How To Microwave Ramen

  • 1 decade ago

    Yes just put them in a microwave safe bowl and cover the noodles with enough water to cover the top of the noodles. Put on HIGH for about 5 minutes, it will boil the noodles and you can put the seasoning in it after you take it out. If your microwave it high powered, you may need to add more water because the microwave sometimes evaporates water more than on the stove.

    Yes you can. Just put them in a microwavable bowl, add enough water to cover your noodles and then cook for 6 minutes.

    Yes actually you can but they don't taste good atleast not to me. All you have to do is take a bowl with some water and dump the noodles inside then put it in for maybe about 2 minutes then add the seasoning. Its that simple.

    I'll tell you what I personally think is the easiest way to cook Ramen noodles ... lots easier than stove-top. Just put them in a small crock-pot, add the required amount of water, and turn the crock-pot on. In about 30 minutes the noodles are done ... then stir in the seasoning package. This way you don't have to keep an eye on a pot of boiling water. But ... no ... I've never tried the microwave method. (Also, as a point of interest to other readers, I buy Ramen noodles and fix them this way for my dogs. I just cook the stuff in the crock-pot and then, when it's cooled, I take a pair of scissors ... snip away until the noodles are in bite-size pieces ... and then mix it in their dry dog food. It's obviously very-very cheap -- plus it moisturizes their dry dog food. I don't do this every day -- just occasionally for variety. They woof it down.)
