Ramen Seasoning Recipe 2 on The Dinner Recipe refers to a DIY dry seasoning mix for ramen that is similar to common homemade ramen blends using bouillon plus garlic, onion, herbs, and warm spices.
Typical flavor base
Such mixes generally rely on chicken bouillon powder (or vegetable for a meat‑free version) as the salty, umami core. Garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley or green onions are added for classic ramen packet–style aroma.
Common extras and how to use
Light heat and depth often come from paprika, black pepper, ginger, chili powder, or cayenne, sometimes with a pinch of sugar to balance saltiness. The combined spices are whisked together and stored airtight; about 1 tablespoon is stirred into hot water with cooked noodles for a quick broth, adjusting to taste and optionally adding soy sauce, sesame oil, or chili oil.
Asian Ramen Slaw Ramen seasoning recipe
Ingredients
Method
- Get the toast or crunchy topping ready:
- Crush the Noodles: In a dish or within the package, break the raw ramen noodles into tiny, bite-sized pieces. Avoid boiling them.
- Toast: On a rimmed baking sheet, equally distribute the sunflower seeds, slivered almonds, and smashed ramen noodles.
- Bake/Toast: Bake the noodles and nuts in an oven set to 350°F (175°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until they are aromatic and golden brown. As an alternative, you may toast them over medium heat in a pan.
- Cool: Move the blend onto a platter and let it cool fully. For the most crunch, this is essential.
- Prepare the dressing:
- Combine all the dressing ingredients (oil, vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and contents of the two saved ramen spice packets) in a medium dish or jar with a tight-fitting lid.
- Mix the dressing thoroughly and whisk or shake rapidly until the sugar dissolves.
- Put the Slaw Together:
- Add the cut green onions and the coleslaw mix to a very big bowl.
- Stir the crispy ramen and nut mixture into the slaw right before serving.
- Dress and Serve:
- Drizzle the slaw mixture with the dressing.
- To ensure that every ingredient is equally coated, gently toss everything.
- To get the ideal crunch, serve right away. The ramen noodles and cabbage will get softer the longer the salad is left with the dressing.

FAQs
Can I prepare the Ramen Seasoning Recipe in advance?
Yes, however there is a crucial rule: Make the crunchy ramen/nuts mixture, the slaw mix, and the dressing, then store each individually in airtight containers. To preserve maximum crunch, combine and toss all together no more than 30 minutes before serving.
Do the ramen noodles need to be toasted?
No, you can use the ramen noodles (crushed and uncooked) right out of the container. But toasting them in butter or oil with the almonds enhances their flavour and guarantees a better, longer-lasting crunch Ramen Seasoning Recipe.
Can I substitute other seeds or nuts?
Of course. The sliced almonds and sesame seeds make great additions or substitutes, as do chopped pecans, cashews, or sunflower seeds.
Does the seasoning packet need to be included?
Many people enjoy the traditional “instant ramen” flavour and a generous amount of salt that the seasoning package offers. You can use a bit more salt, pepper, and a dash of ground ginger or garlic powder in the dressing instead of the packet for a somewhat healthier alternative.
What is the shelf life of leftovers?
For up to two days, leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. The cabbage will somewhat wilt and the noodles will soften, but the flavour will still be excellent.
Final Notes
- Serving Temperature: Room temperature or cooled is the ideal serving temperature for this slaw.
- Protein Addition: Before tossing, add 21 to 1 cup of shredded rotisserie chicken or grilled tofu to the salad to make it a complete meal .
- Colour & Flavour Boost: Drain and add one small can of mandarin orange segments to the slaw mixture for an extra lovely display and a burst of sweetness.
- Taste Test: Before tossing, always taste the dressing! To make it sweet, tangy, or salty to your liking, adjust the sugar, vinegar, or soy sauce.
