FAQ
Below are frequently asked questions about my garlic chili noodles:
Which ramen are you using?
The noodles are sold as just ramen without the seasoning. They're by the brand Samyang and can be found at Korean grocers.
Which chili flakes are you using?
I’m using Korean gochugaru flakes instead of Sichuan chili flakes to reduce on the level of spice but use what you have.
