About Soup, ramen noodle, any flavor, dry
Instant ramen is one of the cheapest and most popular convenience foods in the world: a compressed block of pre-cooked, dried wheat noodles that softens in a few minutes of boiling water, paired with a small packet of seasoning powder. This entry covers the dry product as it comes in the package, before water is added.
Per 100 grams it runs about 436 calories, with roughly 63 grams of carbohydrate, 16 grams of fat and 10 grams of protein. The fat content is the giveaway that the noodles are typically flash-fried during manufacturing, which is how they dry so quickly and why instant ramen is more calorie-dense than plain boiled pasta. A single standard block is usually around 80 to 90 grams.
The headline issue is sodium: about 2,000 milligrams per 100 grams, the great majority of it in the seasoning packet — close to a full day's recommended limit in one serving. Using only part of the flavor packet, or building your own broth with vegetables, an egg and a leaner protein, turns it into a more balanced meal without losing the convenience.
