Yes, if you do it like this. The main cup is not leak-proof, but the soup bowl is.

I'm not sure, sadly. The soup bowl wouldn't be big enough for a full package of Ramen, that I do know. Perhaps a half serving in the main dish bowl with vegetables in the smaller sealable bowl to be combined later.

The main cup is just plastic so watch your heat. You should use the soup cup. It has a vent for just that purpose.

yes, but how much later are you thinking of. It will keep it warm for only about 3 hours from my experience.

I gave this one as a gift, so I don't know. You could pack the soup in a thermos and put rice in one part and then steamed veggies in the other part. I have another style, and if I did pack soup in it I would make sure it was upright at all times, just to be sure.I've been happy with the stainless lunch boxes from To-Go Ware. I hope this helps.

I break my instant noodles into 4 pieces. Then thow them in, add a bottle of water and nuke it for 2:30mins at high, bring it out, mix the noddles around and put it back in for another 2 mins without lid this time (or else it gets bubbles raising). I love it, it's great for soup, it won't spill

You probably could but it seems not to splatter all over. It gets condensation on the handles when you cook it. It kinda steams the noodles to cook them. It only takes 3 minutes too cook.

I suggest to soak the cups in warm water (not HOT, but little warmer than luke-warm) before pouring the hot soup...And yet, may be the soup could be not boiled hot hot...

When full on top, they will accept 10 ounces, but it,s realy on TOP. It could be risky. To be reasonnable, 8 ounces is the best. I don't know about ramen, I used them just for onion soups. They are very good crocks. Robert

There are some restaurants that do serve this type of soup in a bread bowl. Personally I've never tried to do so but don't see why it wouldn't work. Do try substituting a cup of half & half for one cup of water (added at the end of the boiling & simmering) to make a thicker soup. Good luck

Good Question! It's hard to say, but these awesome chunks absorb at least 5X their dry weight when cooked in broth or soup. They also expand to about twice their dry size. You'll want to cook them first anyway, because they need about 10 mins of constant simmering to totally soften and absorb liquid. So my advice is to cook a cup or two in veggie broth, then add them to the recipe when cooked. Enjoy!

No boil noodles are a great convenience provided that you follow the recipe. As a general rule of thumb, you would want to put a layer of sauce below the first layer of noodles and some on top of the last layer of noodles. This helps the noodles become soft, without drying out while they cook. Wavy or straight they function the same. With the bakers edge pan, I have only found some of the gluten free noodles are narrow enough to fit into the dimensions of this pan.

Prepare the food same as Mountain House food, add hot water to packet or container with ingredients, stir and allow 10 minutes for food to reconstitute. Here's a video to help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B146NxPWoaQ#t=185

You can soak the mushrooms in warm water for about half an hour before cooking. They will still be very chewy though. Best in soups in my opinion.

You can break them up and add them as toppings to salad, noodles, rice. Even soup! Great as a condiment!

I think you know the answer to this... Think about putting the soup into a ziplocked bag, taking the air out. Even though you removed all the air, it still would need something more to preserve it. You would toss it in the freezer. This device pulls the air out of a jar, sort of like squishing all the air out of a bag. Then you have to do something like freezing.

I do not know anything about ramen other than ramen noodles. It is great for grilling meats indoors when it is either too hot or too cold outside.

The noodles are packed in liquid. Drain the liquid, rinse well with cold water. Put in boiling water for 1 minute, drain and use.

Yes, if you cook them too long. My suggestion would be to simply cook the soup w/out the zucchini noodles; then at the very last minute, put them in the soup and simmer for only one minute to warm them.

Yes, it has to go somewhere..just chop it up and use in the rest of your recipe..or save that and the top that you can't shred for soup
