Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a

pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for 3 around mins

and then ready to eat.

»¡µÔàÃÒ¨ÃãÊèºÃËÃÕèã¹¹éÓ¾ÃéÃÃà¤Ã×èç»ÃاáÅõéûÃÃÃÒ³ 3 ¹Ò·Õ¨¹à´×ô

This is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles.

«Öè§à»ç¹ÇÔ¸Õ·Õè¼Ô´

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder,

normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structures of the

realized is that, the noodles are coated with wax and it will take

around

So the CORRECT method, which you may or may not know, is to cook the

noodles this way ?

¹Õè¤×ÃÇÔ¸ÕµéúÃËÃÕè·Õè¶Ù¡µéç

1. boil the noodles in a pot with water.

2. once the noodles is cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the

water which contains wax.

3. boil another pot of water till boiling and put the noodles into the

hot boiling water and then shut the fire.

An even better suggestion is to just not eat the things. (unless you're piss loaded and are still confident in your ability to operate a stove)

[PeeMarc]

I hate the ****. Its disgusting crap and should never be called 'food' in any way whatsoever.

[stegee]

could you give us a few details of the toxins involved??

[PeeMarc]

Mike, I think you need a hobby.

Just sayin' :roll:

[Katoom]

What about 'Pot Noodles' Doc?

[Damnam1]

cook fresh and leave away the msg crap..

[SweetieBabie]

ÃÃèÃÂ

[Dr_Mike]

ÃÃèÃÂ

Yes, when prepared properly, with meat and vegetables it can be quite tasty.

[Damnam1]

@Dr Mike - the problem is, that our taste buds get used to this excessive and artifical taste. Hence our nerves will tell us that natural taste doesnt taste at all..

[PJack]

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder,

normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structures of the

MSG causing it to be toxic.

sounds a lot like a conspiracy theory, doc.

care to give us a chemistry lesson on what exactly happens when you boil water with flavors and MSG?

As well with the chili peppers, (capsasin).

Also, too much hoi and everything ends up smelling like fish.

I would have been dead by now, consider the amount of lippy i put on every day. That's a lot of WAX consumed.

However, before i get 'toxicated' by mama or wai wai or yum yum... I would get sick by the high saturated fat and sodium content first...

The only reason I come to Thailand is cause they don't use MSG....Am I kidding myself?.....never eat instant noodles in Thailand.....that's not Thai Culture.....

[SweetieBabie]

The only reason I come to Thailand is cause they don't use MSG....Am I kidding myself?.....never eat instant noodles in Thailand.....that's not Thai Culture.....

But it is becoming part of Thai culture, with over 5,000million baht revenue and increasing every year.

and you can't really avoid MSG consumption in Thailand if you don't cook your own foods :roll:

This is true. You can't avoid eating MSG anywhere. The primary ingredient in MSG is glutamate or glutamic acid one of the essential amino acids that make up dietary protein.

It's produced naturally by the body and most humans in developed countries consume about 10 grams of it naturally from food daily - oysters, tomatoes, broccoli and mushrooms are all high in free glutamate as opposed to bound glutamate - (glutamate that's bound to other amino acids that form a protein molecule) and heaps of packet and processed foods contain it but might be labelled as 'yeast extract' or 'hydrolysed vegetable protein'.

The debate on it's health risks/benefits and usefulness rages on but I think there is more risk to health from eating too much refined carbs (sugars) white rice, bread etc, fat, salt and, well, smoking and drinking! (MSG contains less sodium than salt so may be a better flavouring)
