I ordered Instant Ramen Kitchen after listening to this episode and I think it’s so clever - Peter's made a Salt Fat Acid Heat, distilled down for instant ramen! Someone who's never cooked could learn a ton about cooking and how to balance flavors to their taste, working with one little ramen packet at a time.
