How to Make a Ramen Noodle Spice Packet

Ramen noodles are very versatile.

Ramen noodles are a quick and easy meal with a variety of spices that come in a packet. Common spices are beef and chicken flavoring. The noodles are filling, but the spice packets are extremely high in sodium (1,960 mg of sodium per serving). Using spice packets with less sodium is a way to cut salt in your diet.

Things You'll Need

• Digital scale (0 to 100 grams)
• Low salt or salt-free seasoning
• Chicken seasoning powder
• Aluminum foil

Instructions

1. Fold the aluminum foil into a 3-inch-by-3-inch square, bend the edges up slightly, and place on the digital scale. This creates a small bowl to measure the spices.

2. Tare the digital scale so that with the foil bowl on it, the reading is 0.

3. Weigh out 15 grams of the salt-free seasoning by slowly pouring it into the foil bowl.

4. Weigh out 15 grams of the chicken seasoning powder by slowly pouring it into the foil bowl.

5. Prepare the Ramen noodles as directed, and add the new spice packet before consuming.
