Mix two ramen favorites and create your own instant noodle masterpiece!
Hi friends! ๐
We all know that Korean ramen (or ramyeon) is soul food in a bowl – spicy, savory, and just oh-so-comforting.
But have you ever tried combining two different ramen flavors together to create something new and exciting?
In Korea, we call this kind of mix "ramyeon combo" or “๋ผ๋ฏน์ค (Ra-mix),” and it’s become a fun foodie trend!
Today, I’ll share with you some of the most loved and viral Korean ramen combo recipes, plus a few of my personal favorites you can try at home ๐ฅฐ
✅ 1. Jjapaguri (Jjapaghetti + Neoguri)
๐ The most iconic ramen combo – sweet + spicy + umami
-
Why it’s famous:
This combo went global thanks to the Oscar-winning film Parasite!
You mix Jjapaghetti’s rich black bean flavor with Neoguri’s spicy seafood broth = flavor explosion ๐๐ฅ -
How to make it:
-
Cook both noodles together.
-
Drain most of the water (leave about 3–4 tbsp).
-
Add Jjapaghetti sauce + half Neoguri soup base.
-
Mix well and top with a fried egg if you like!
-
✅ 2. JinKkae Ramyeon (Jin Ramyeon + Sesame Ramyeon)
๐ฅ Cozy, creamy, and just a little spicy
-
Why it’s comforting:
Combine the rich soup of Jin Ramyeon with the nutty, creamy flavor of Sesame Ramyeon.
It's like a Korean ramen version of egg drop soup but with a spicy twist! -
How to make it:
-
Cook both noodles in one pot.
-
Add only half of each soup base (to avoid it being too salty).
-
Mix well and enjoy!
-
Optional: drop in an egg and stir gently for an even richer broth.
-
✅ 3. Buldak Bibim Ramyeon (Buldak Ramen + Paldo Bibimmyeon)
๐ฅ Sweet + spicy + fiery = addictive!
-
Why it’s addictive:
The sweetness of bibim sauce balances the fire from Buldak (Hot Chicken) sauce,
and the noodles get beautifully coated in a shiny, spicy glaze. -
How to make it:
-
Boil both noodles, drain water completely.
-
Add full bibim sauce + half Buldak sauce (more if you’re brave).
-
Toss and top with sesame seeds or a boiled egg ๐ฅต
-
✅ 4. Jjabul (Jjapaghetti + Buldak)
๐ Spicy black bean noodles with a smoky kick
-
Why it works:
Black bean noodles meet Korean hot chicken fire.
It’s a match made in spicy heaven – deep, bold, and a little sweet. -
How to make it:
-
Boil both noodles together, drain water.
-
Mix in full Jjapaghetti sauce + ½ Buldak sauce.
-
Stir-fry for extra depth and top with cheese if you want to mellow it out!
-
✅ 5. Tteum-Buldak (Tteumsae Ramyeon + Buldak)
๐ถ️ Warning: This is for serious spice lovers only
-
Why it’s intense:
Tteumsae Ramen is already spicy on its own. Combine it with Buldak and… well, good luck ๐
It’s bold, fiery, and will definitely wake up your taste buds! -
How to make it:
-
Cook both, mix Tteumsae soup with just a touch of Buldak sauce.
-
Don’t use the entire spicy packet unless you love a challenge.
-
Add egg or cheese to help tone down the heat (a little).
