Have you tried the Nissan brand black garlic ramen? It's $28.99 on Amazon for a 30 pack and I've thought about trying it out.
Ive never seen that flavor before but according to Maruchan's website, they still make it in the "bowl" version.
I just bought a case of these though. https://www.amazon.com/Nissin-Demae-Garlic-Instant-Noodles/dp/B00CORJU5S
They're pretty good for when I'm looking for a quick fix.
I recommend starting at Amazon and just seeing if you can find what you want online. Maruchan's website also has a "Contact Us" section. Could always send them an email. Maybe they'll ship you a case.
For a quick and cheap boost I would suggest dropping a scrambled egg in the broth while it’s cooking and chopped green onions when it’s in your bowl. Pepper, chili powder, etc. at the end for more flavor.
If you want to do some work ahead of time, make soft boiled eggs. For us it’s about 6:20 in boiling water with refrigerated eggs. Adding a little vinegar to the water and poking a hole in the bottom (less pointy) end of the egg with a thumbtack before cooking will make them easier to peel. Split them in half and put them in your finished bowl. You can marinade them in soy sauce and mirin too for a little more $.
There are a few other traditional things you can add for a few $ if you have an Asian market nearby. Nori (dried algae that sushi is wrapped in), menma (baby bamboo shoots) and kikurage (wood ear mushrooms) are all great and not too expensive.
I’d also recommend getting some different flavors too. These black oil tonkotsuare less than $1.50 if you get a 30 pack with Amazon prime.
I just recently found this one because of someone else's post not too long ago and it is definitely my new favorite.
Before I found this one, my favorite was the Koka Spicy Sesame... which I'm guessing a lot of other folks in my area like as well, because it's been sold out every time I go to Uwajimaya to buy more :(
Edit: MaMa has been noted. Will try soon :)
I was completely underwhelmed. Now if you want an amazing instant noodle you have to get ahold of this shit: https://www.amazon.com/Nissin-Demae-Garlic-Instant-Noodles/dp/B00CORJU5S
It’s fucking DELICIOUS
The GF bought me a 30 pack of Nissin Black Garlic for Valentine's. She's a cardiac NP. She must want me to come visit her at work.
Mie Goreng is fantastic, but the best instant ramen I've had is the Nissin Black Garlic Tonkatsu
Where are you from? I bought it from a local Asian store but I just googled and found it on amazon
Maybe a bit late to a response but this one is really good if you like black garlic with your tonkotsu. You could always just not put it on though, the broth is good plain. http://www.amazon.com/Nissin-Demae-Garlic-Instant-Noodles/dp/B00CORJU5S
