Dear Greg and Martin: Ramen noodles are these hard noodles fashioned in one big block. They come with a spice packet and very very cheap. Are they like five Ramen packages for 2 dollars or something like that? You boil water, dump the Ramen block of noodles in the water, let it go until it softens up and separates. Drain water and mix with the spice from the packet. I remember chicken, beef, and mushroom flavor. I forgot the rest.
