Which NoodleBomb flavor is best for vegetables?

Citrus Shoyu is the best first pick for green vegetables because the bright shoyu base lifts broccoli, bok choy, cabbage, asparagus, and snap peas. Original is best for mushrooms and roasted vegetables. Spicy Tokyo is best when you want heat.

When should I add ramen sauce to vegetables?

Cook the vegetables first, then toss with NoodleBomb off heat or during the final 30 seconds. That keeps the garlic, sesame, citrus, and chili notes bold without burning the sauce.

How much sauce should I use for vegetables?

Start with 1 tablespoon for a side dish and 2 tablespoons for a larger bowl with rice, noodles, tofu, chicken, or eggs. Add more after tasting.
