A big thanks to James from Lakeside, CA for sending these! This is a Taiwanese export version I’ve not reviewed (surprisingly enough). The brand is Vedan, however it is pronounced with a w sound – like way-dan. So now you know. Let’s cook.
Vedan Wei Wei A Instant Noodles Artificial Spicy Beef Flavor – Taiwan
Detail of the packaging (click to enlarge). Looks to be meat free but check for yourself. To prepare, add everything to 450ml boiling water and let steep 3 minutes. Finally, stir and enjoy!
An instant noodle block.
A sachet of soup base powder seasoning.
A sachet of liquid soup base.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added egg, sesame seed, Chinese sausage, and scallion. Noodle has that standoffish initial tooth Taiwanese fried instants do; it tends a lot of the time that they are dense, but then they have a little crumble. The broth is like a spicy braised kind of thing which works well and is very good. 3.75 out of 5.0 stars. UPC bar code 810477010149.
