💧 Important Cooking Instruction - Hydration Is Key

Millet-based noodles absorb significantly more water than refined instant noodles.

• For a 175g pack, use ~700 mL water
• Standard 75 g refined instant noodles require ~200 mL water
• This pack needs nearly 1.75× more water for optimal softness and even cooking

👉 Using less water may result in firm or unevenly cooked strands.

🔥 How to Cook

1️⃣ Bring 700 mL water to a rolling boil in a wide saucepan
2️⃣ Add the noodle cake and allow it to soften before gently separating strands
3️⃣ Add tastemaker and stir evenly
4️⃣ Simmer uncovered for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally
5️⃣ Cook until water reduces and noodles reach preferred texture
6️⃣ Rest for 1 minute before serving

💡 Add sautéed vegetables, roasted seeds, or a drizzle of cold-pressed oil for a more complete meal.
