• Imagine the scene:

    You only have a microwave at work and you’d like to cook some noodles and whip up a quick DIY broth and maybe add some broccoli or something so you don’t feel too guilty.

    Any tips for noodles that cook in the microwave? Any broth tips? I’d usually go veggie stock powder, some miso with dashi and sesame oil.

  • I would just cook a packet no? The noodles from those cook well in the microwave.

    If not then any dried noodles work well tbh.

  • They all cook in the microwave. This is basically what I do at work all the time! I’d recommend a glass Tupperware with a lid like in my opening post. Prepare them however you like and give them a good stir every minute or so.

  • Udon noodle packets would work well, they barely need cooking.
    2 pencils as chopsticks for Police Story noodle vibes.

    Instant dashi powder is your friend for DIY noodle soup bases.
    You'd want some soy sauce, maybe some garlic powder, maybe some chinese chilli oil, sesame oil etc.

    Broccoli has no place in a noodle soup. Either its too mushy, or too crunchy, and the florets float around making you soup look like a stagnant pond.

  • I wouldn't be microwaving broccoli in an office if you want any friends
