HOT & SPICY FIRE WOK LAUNCHES NEW LINE OF CHILI-INFUSED NOODLES FOR BOLDER, FLAVOR-FORWARD RAMEN RECIPES

Partners With FDNY Foundation for a Culinary Showdown to Combat Hunger & Bring the Heat  

GARDENA, Calif. (December 6, 2023) – Nissin Foods USA, creator of iconic brands Cup Noodles® and Top Ramen®, is heating up kitchens nationwide with the launch of Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK Packets, a square ramen pack featuring spicy noodles that are infused with chili flakes inside the noodle, allowing anyone to easily create bold, flavor-forward ramen recipes. Available in Torched Teriyaki Chicken Flavor and Screamin’ Sichuan Beef, these bold, flavor-forward spicy ramen offerings will bring heat to the kitchen in an all-new flexible format for cooking fans to enjoy solo, with friends or in masses.

To mark the arrival of the new chili-infused Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK Packets, Nissin Foods is partnering with the FDNY Foundation, the official non-profit organization of New York City’s firefighters to help drive donations for Feeding America, an organization that supports families facing hunger during the holidays and beyond. This December, Nissin will host a culinary showdown at the New York City Fire Museum that brings together the bravest fire fighting chefs from each New York borough, to showcase their creativity in the kitchen with an original, fiery recipe using Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK Torched Teriyaki Chicken or Screamin’ Sichuan Beef products. 

While only one firefighter can be crowned “The Ultimate Fire Chef” by acclaimed ramen expert and social media talent Ramen King Ivan, all of the tasty Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK recipes will be shared on NissinFoods.com for consumers to try themselves. And, to further encourage at-home chefs to give it a try – Nissin is donating a portion of all Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK sales at Walmart this December directly to Feeding America gifting up to $75,000 in proceeds to support families facing hunger. Make sure to check out the recipes!

Both new flavors, Torched Teriyaki Chicken and Screamin’ Sichuan Beef, build on the tastes that we know Nissin fans already love. Now with chili peppers infused directly into the noodles, Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK Packets are bringing forth even more heat independent of the seasoning. These ramen packets are incredibly easy to prepare for yourself or combine packs for a group of people. Simply boil the noodles for 5 minutes, and then mix in the seasoning packet.

Hot & Spicy FIRE WOK is available for SRP $1.09 and is now available at Walmart locations nationwide and on Walmart.com. To learn more about Nissin Foods and its various product offerings, visit NissinFoods.com.
