10/10 would recommend

Post image

I know Buldak gets plenty of love (and hate) around here. But man oh man, this package of seasoning powder was GOOD. Recommended seasoning is 3tbsp water / 1 tbsp powder. Used primarily for stir fry, but I'll be trying it as an additive to broth or sauce.
Overall, would definitely recommend. 1tbsp has good heat without being miserable (for those with higher than average tolerance), while 2 tbsp would probably be good if you're in the mood to feel some pain. Downside: the powder tends to clump, so make sure you're breaking it up, otherwise you might get a bite of pure spicy pain.

How bad is the sodium in these?

130mg per serving... Which, according to the Nutrition Facts, a "serving" is 1/4 tsp... Though the "recommended recipe" is 1tbsp. Soooo yeah, my doctor who's been telling me to lay off the salt would probably have some words to say about this product

1 Tbsp = 12 × ¼ tsp

Total sodium = 130 mg × 12 = 1,560 mg
