Oh, get your mind out of the gutter!
What I mean is packaged food, whose directions indicate a serving suggestion. But you have long since thrown that suggestion to the wind, and used the product in another way or in another recipe to eat.
For example: Ramen Noodles. The directions on the package intend for you to make this simple noodle soup.
Instead, I'll save the spice packet for another day (and these are building up.. I need a use for these! ), and I'll snap the dry ramen brick in half as to shorten the noodles. I do this to three or four packages, and then I'll boil the noodles in salted water and drain. In a mixing bowl, I add some soy sauce and stir-fry oil (whatever you have, canola oil works fine) Turn the noodles until well covered.. AND FRY!!!! (In a non-stick skillet of course)
I like to get them slightly dry and a little crispy-ish, served with stir-fry veggies, or chicken, or steak.. or plain. With some sriracha. :eat2:
