Instant ramen seasoning packets are a blend of dehydrated aromatics, vegetables, herbs, umami powder, and MSG, creating craveable and satisfying flavors.
MSG enhances umami from ingredients like soy sauce and adds a lingering savoriness, balancing sodium-heavy broth with sweetness from sugar.
Ingredients in instant ramen vary by brand and flavor, exemplified by SamYang's Buldak spicy chicken noodle, showcasing unique spices like red pepper and curry powder.
While sodium levels are high, the complexity from added spices and balance from sugar prevents instant ramen from tasting overly salty.
