seriously. so many people I know, when they cook noodles, cook them way too long. they come out soggy, which is disgusting. I want to know- who out there actually likes to eat noodles soggy? how can anyone really enjoy noodles that are cooked any way but al dente?
soggy noodles = mush = GROSS.
al dente noodles = just right = JESUS.
I only like my Top Ramen super soggy, soaking up all the juice... yum.
But any other noodle needs to be al dente.
I voted al dente, but I might as well have voted for the "I don't cook them at all". I eat almost as much uncooked pasta and noodles as cooked.
...
Noodles, that's a perfect late night snack. *scuttles of to cook noodles*
Son of a proper italian family, I say al dente. Soggy = fail.
Well, I don't like them soggy, but if they say to cook them for 8-10 minutes, I'd cook them for 10. I prefer them soft, not soggy.

Any other random spices you happen to find laying around your pantry.
Directions: heat water to boiling. Add noodles, then immediately add flavor packet. Stir in random spices as quickly as possible. Cook until desired noodle consistency is reached. Serve and enjoy.
No, seriously, this stuff is win. Try it. Is good.
I'm fine with all of the above. Just GIVE ME THE CARBS and no one gets hurt.
I always under cook my noodles. I like them to be a little bit rubbery.
