It’s that quick and easy! With just a few simple tricks, Ramen to the Rescue transforms the classic, can’t-fail pack of noodles into over 100 amazing, palate-pleasing dishes, like:
•Bacon, Egg and Ramen Scramble
•Minestrone Soup
•Black Bean and Green Chile
•Stuffed Peppers
•Ramen-n-Cheese
•Cold Noodle Salad with Grilled Beef
•Ramen Bolognese
•Pad Thai
•Salmon Croquettes with Creamy Chili Sauce
My Thoughts
My family loves noodle-based dishes. I have a shrimp-and-broccoli over noodles recipe that's always a winner. I am (almost) addicted to Pad Thai, and my husband can live on spicy noodles and any meat and veggies on top.
Ramen to the Rescue Cookbook by Jessica Harlan takes the modest, unassuming ramen noodles and transforms them into over 100 different dishes. Think beyond noodle soup and stir-fries: there's Herby Buttered Noodles and Peas, Warm Lemon Poppy Seed Salad, Ramen-Crusted Trout, and even desserts. The recipes are grouped into categories, such as Snacks and Starters, Breakfasts, Soups, Salads, Side Dishes, Asian-Inspired Classics, and more. The prepping and cooking directions are clear and easy to follow. There's a handy section, listing ingredients you'd need to make those delicious ramen noodles recipes, another on kitchenware, and a list of ramen manufacturers and retailers. Our favorite brand is Nongshim, Korean instant noodles that we buy by the case at our wholesale club or on Amazon.
Cooking - and eating! - ramen noodles can be lots of fun with the Ramen to the Rescue Cookbook.
