Dishes that were eaten on my mission:

Cook ramen noodles. Mix with can of Cream of Mushroom. Heat. Serve over toast. A companion told me about this, and I told him it sounded disgusting. But I finally tried it, and it wasn't bad. It never was something I went to back to however.

Another favorite among some of the missionaries was to crumple up the ramen in the bag without opening it. Then open the bag, taken out the seasoning packet and sprinkle it over the ramen. Eat it without cooking, straight from the bag. Seasoned popcorn. I never did like this.

When I cook ramen I do the following:

1. Boil water
2. Break egg into water.
3. Add ramen noodles.
4. Cook for exactly 3 minutes. Overcooked ramen is disgusting.
5. Drain noodles.
6. When you first were cooking the noodles, you started a kettle of boiling water. Add this water to the noodles.
7. Add seasoning packet.
8. Enjoy.

Years of practice to develop this technique.
When you say ramen, I assume you dont mean the brand Top ramen? Since I didnt serve in asia, I was robbed of exposure to good noodles.

Where do you go to buy good ramen noodles?

One of my good friends who went to Japan loved to make "Yakisoba" all the time. i tought it was yum. Apologies for butchering the spelling, since i dont speak japanese.
