I forgot I was boiling ramen to fry up
and now it's a soggy mess

I'm sad
so sad

IT WAS NEW RAMEN TOO! D8>>>>

Nooo! Not the ramen! Once I was boiling a kettle of water for coco and it never whistled so I ended up completely burning up the kettle. Oops!

i ate it anyway T_T sad experience

goshhh dont you hate when that happens ;q;
i hope it wasn't a nice kettle..!

(also your avatar is looking brillianttt)

I did that too, Zig!
It had been my grandmother's kettle too :c

There is no recovery for overcooked soggy ramen... I hope they weren't too bad. I have done that. Not good at all.

One thing I haven't done is burn a kettle... Only because I don't have one... I am sure if I had one, it would happen.

@sjacklene
the ramen itself wasn't that good 8( it was suppose to be a dry noodle
so ..you can imagine how disappointing it was being all soggy..haha

LOL you sound like me
if i had the thing...it'd also be burned...yes OTL all too familiar

I ruined my ramen by putting microwaved fish leftovers in it. Ugh, everything tasted strongly of fish, like really strong fishy flavor.

SNEK IN LONG'S SIG!

/nothing relevant to add to this conversation.

Sometimes I put ham in my ramen like they do in Ponyo. >.>

I haven't watched Ponyo yet, it looks super cute though

I *love* soft ramen! I prefer extra soft ramen, but I know many others who prefer the chewy kind. You can send me your ramen to eat if you don't want it :)

I once put two eggs in a little pot to boil, but forgot about it until I heard a--PUHBANG!
The water had evaporated and the eggs exploded.

Potatoes like to do that to me when I'm baking them >.> But I have skewers to poke through the middle of them now, to spoil their games!

Wow! Would love to see a photo if you have one. Exploded eggs O_O

hahaha
I'm afraid I don't take photographs very often, so that wasn't really an occasion that warranted one. As soon as I heard it, I knew what the mistake was, ahah hah!

@jellysundae
I would never have guessed a potato would do the same thing; I assumed poking holes was just for faster/more even cooking. It's quite a contrast to something that deflates as soon as you take it out of the oven.

I had some yummy udon noodle beef soup yesterday with bok choy, bean sprouts, and crispy taro root. It was delicious!

Jupiter yeah, it doesn't happen anywhere near as often as they'll explode in the microwave, but they will catch you out occasionally >< Maybe it's spuds with a particularly high water content and the skin just can't cope with the pressure of the steam created.

Overcooked ramen is the worst T^T Do you remember what the brand noodle it was? I've never had dry noodles before O_o

Potato under pressure.

I just bought some ramen this afternoon, and found some lovely tomatoes to put in it for dinner.
