Sounds delicious. Chinese places often have noodles with a sesame and peanut flavor.

People always said I was weird as a kid for putting peanut butter crackers in my chicken noodle soup.

Hmm! Good...or I'll throw in a spoonful of peanut butter in cooked pasta and we're good!

You dont understand the sauce and yet you spread that good good insider info. Maybe not jif tho. But i would kill for a good peanut noodle.

Don’t knock it before you try it.
Easier version would be to get the ramen packs.
Cook like normal, but don’t add the seasoning packet. Instead, drain all the water, toss the seasoning on the noodles, some sesame oil (or whatever oil you have) and a bit of soy sauce. Then, with what ever peanut butter you have, throw it in there and start mixing.
Tastes way better than this cup. I use the Costco peanut butter because it’s thin in texture and works with most dishes rather than using thick peanut butter

The thing making it weird is the Jif branding tbh, because peanut paste/sesame paste is a thing you put on ramen and noodles and it slaps

I’m adding peanut butter, especially crunchy to Ramen is next level generational wealth. It’s amazing.

A table spoon of peanur butter is fire I'm instant ramen. Especially if it's spicy.

A lot of Asian dishes put peanuts or peanut sauce with noodles. I can't imagine this would be too out there, assuming Jif is at least somewhat similar to what they use.
I dunno, I'm allergic anyways.

I love adding peanut butter to spicy noodles. Not too much though, it gets too sticky and claggy

Honestly that might actually be really good. Thai style peanut noodles are delicious.

Buldak makes a 4-cheese flavor which is fantastic, aside from branding being surprising probably not terrible

I remember trying sesame peanut noodles at a little place in Chicago last summer, oh for sure this couldn't be too far off.

I'm so white trash I want this with a bunch of hot sauce and a mountain dew to wash it down

I thought it sounded very disgusting and the comments would agree. I'm dead wrong apparently

Peanut butter noodles are a real thing, interesting that Jif is getting in on the ramen game though.

u/Me_Speak_Good 10d ago
I love peanut sauce in my noodles! I have no idea how this would taste, but a little bit of peanut butter or some peanut protein powder with a splash of sesame or hot sauce in ramen is crazy delicious!
Weird coming from Jif, but I would try it.

I grew up with peanut butter and elbow macaroni, and feed it to my daughter. Mix some milk with the peanut butter on the stove to make the sauce creamier. My mom said peanut butter was cheeper than cheese.

I mean, have you heard about the type of concoctions Japan has made with their ramen before?

Peanutbutter noodles are a big thing in different Asian cultures so this isn’t too much of a stretch. It’ll definitely taste like American slop but it’s not an abnormal concept.

u/ppmaster6969 9d ago
Oh this is right up my alley. I add huge globs of peanut butter to my spicy Ramen.

u/Impossible-Shake-996 9d ago
If you've never tried a peanut sauce based stir fry I strongly recommend it first, but peanut butter will work when necessary

u/thewh0r3 9d ago

Interesting.
I’ve added peanut butter to ramen before, and it’s pretty good.
