Noodles should be cooked in salty water at home, here's why
So let's have a constructive discussion to improve our Ramen, here is my take:
We all know ramen noodles are cooked in water without salt because ramen noodles already have salt in it... BUT..
In ramen shop they cook ramen noodles in the same water, because of the osmosis the salt in the noodles travel in the water until there is a balance between the salt in the water and the salt in the noodles.
So Essentially, after several ramen bowls prepeared that water is almost as salty as the noodles(I say almost because clean water is constantly added to to avoid the water to completely evaporate).
At home the best way we have to simulate this is to use salty water with around 1% salt or slightly less. so that the salt in the noodles don't dissipate completely in the water because of osmosis.
When I do Ramen at home the noodles taste unsalted after cooking, which is partially a good thing because after they are submarged in the broth they suck up the saltiness from the the broth.
However from a recent trip in Japan I noticed that the Tsukumen noodles, (cooked in the same water of the ramen noodles) were already very salty if eaten alone, this could only happen if the cooking water was already salty, so that keept the internal balance of the salt in the noodles.

Where to find Kara Miso
Recently tried the sauce, Garlic Kara Miso in a restaurant, really love it. The staff told me could try finding it at Don don donki, but didn't manage to find it there or anywhere else nor online. Does anyone happen to buy this before?

mold on ramen
i boiled a packet of noodle then saw small bugs in it. then I'll saw the dried noodle cube which had visible slight molds. then i checked the sauce which had curds so i threw that away too. now what about the seasoning? would the seasoning be fine to use? it smells and looks fine to me.
ps. the expiration date on the packet was of this month (November 2024)

Noodle size??
My son is autistic and he really loves the buldak carbonara ramen. One of the things he likes is how thick the noodles are. He no longer likes the texture of the thin ramen noodles. Do the thick noodles have a different name? I want to find just the noodles (hopefully not for a ton of money).
If someone could help me out I’d really really appreciate it.
Thanks
