Product Overview
Neoguri: The Original Spicy Udon Ramen
Neoguri first appeared in November 1982 as Cheongbo Foods’ “Neoguri Udon.” Its thick, chewy udon-style noodles served in a seafood-flavored broth were a refreshing departure from the typical ramen of the time. In February 1983, the recipe was amped up with extra heat and relaunched as “Spicy Neoguri,” quickly becoming a hit. When the brand moved to Nongshim in 1996, its signature flavor remained unmatched ever since.
Unlike thin noodles, Neoguri’s strands are substantial and satisfyingly chewy, absorbing the spicy seafood broth deep into every bite. Kombu strips and seaweed flakes round out the heat with a clean oceanic finish, creating a unique balance that fans love.
Thick Noodles Meets Seafood Broth
Neoguri’s noodles blend wheat flour, potato starch, and palm oil to achieve a perfect chew. Cooked for five minutes in boiling water, they deliver a tender exterior and springy interior. The powder soup, infused with chili, onion, garlic, and salt, yields a clear red broth that’s both invigorating and richly savory.
The kombu strips impart a refined seaweed aroma, while the seafood essence oil floats atop the broth, adding a subtle sweetness after the initial heat. This harmonious interplay of flavors has made Neoguri a timeless favorite across generations.
"RtA" Neoguri: From Fan Meme to Official Name
Fans noticed that flipping the Neoguri bag upside down made the logo resemble “RtA,” sparking the playful community meme “Flip Neoguri, see RtA!” This quirky discovery spread among ramen enthusiasts worldwide, becoming a fun cultural reference.
In 2020, Nongshim officially embraced the meme, launching “Angry Neoguri RtA” with an intentionally flipped logo and three times the spice level of regular Neoguri—delivering both a laugh and a fiery kick.
Ideal Neoguri Party Recipes
Turn Neoguri into a communal hot pot by adding rice cakes, dumplings, and assorted vegetables—a spicy stew that unites diverse flavors in one pot. Stir in tteokbokki sauce for a “Tteokbokki Neoguri” twist that’s equally popular. These creative variations make for an effortless yet satisfying gathering dish.
