00:04Some people say that cup noodles taste good whether they are properly prepared or not.
00:07The key is whether the water is hot enough.
00:10What if someone tells you today that you don't need hot water to make cup noodles?
00:14You can eat it by simply adding cold water.
00:17Don't you think this is some kind of ridiculous joke?
00:20The weather in Japan lately has been unbearably hot.
00:23Various chilled foods are very popular
00:26Nissin Foods, a well-known Japanese food company
00:29Taking advantage of this opportunity, they also launched the brand's first-ever cold water cup noodle.
00:34Simply add cold water and wait five minutes.
00:36You can then enjoy ice-cold instant noodles.
00:39It makes one unable to help but suspect
00:41Will this cup of noodles really dissolve if I only add cold water?
00:45The food company that launched the cold water cup noodles
00:47It took five whole years to research
00:50Recently, taking advantage of the brand's 55th anniversary...
00:53The mildly spicy kimchi and salted lemon kimchi have been officially launched.
00:57Two limited-edition flavors of cold water cup noodles
01:00This breaks the traditional belief that cup noodles cannot be cooked without hot water.
01:04Each cup of cold water costs 285 yen.
01:08That is approximately 7 ringgit and 20 cents.
01:10What's even more special is
01:11The packaging of that cup noodle even has a reminder on the other side for consumers.
01:16Never soak it in hot water.
01:18Instead, use cold water that has been refrigerated to 5 to 10 degrees Celsius.
01:23brewing
01:23This is because the food company redesigned the noodles.
01:26Also, the structure of the cup body
01:28Soak the noodles in cold water for five minutes.
01:32You can still enjoy the bouncy and smooth texture.
01:35However, some people might ask at this point.
01:37Does instant noodles soaked in cold water really taste better?
01:40Many Japanese netizens who tried it gave it rave reviews.
01:45The lemon-flavored cup noodles amazed them.
01:49Some people even joked that this is a lifesaver for lazy people who are too lazy to boil water.
01:53As for why they specifically launched spicy kimchi and lemon flavors...
01:58There is actually a strong scientific basis for this.
02:01The Japan Taste Association pointed out
02:03When the weather gets hot, people tend to lose their appetite.
02:06At this time, it should be a little sour, a little salty, and a little spicy.
02:10On the contrary, it is the most appetizing
02:11Sour flavors can stimulate saliva production.
02:14Saltiness replenishes the salt lost through sweat and moisture.
02:17The spiciness helps with sweating and heat dissipation.
02:20And taking advantage of this cold food craze
02:23Many Japanese food companies have also been promoting their own products.
02:27The advertisement claims that some of the food should be refrigerated before consumption.
02:30Classic products that will taste even better
02:32For example, Yamazaki bread recommends
02:34Put their classic thin-crust butter bread in the refrigerator.
02:38Refrigerate for two to three hours
02:40The cream inside will become like ice cream.
02:43A new way to eat worth showing off in summer
02:46However, regarding the cold water cup noodles mentioned earlier...
02:49Currently only available in Japan
02:51There are currently no plans to launch overseas.
02:54in other words
02:55If you want to try this cold water cup noodle for yourself
02:59It seems I'll have to fly to Japan.
