More than one pack
Use a bigger pot and enough water to cover all the noodles — most of it is poured away anyway. Keep about 8 spoonfuls of the water for each pack, then add each pack’s sauce.
Tips
- Keeping a little water is what turns the powder into a glossy sauce. Too dry? Add a spoonful of hot water.
- Mix Chapagetti with Neoguri and you get Jjapaguri, the “ram-don” from the film Parasite.
