Maggi,Top Ramen,Hakka noodles, the list is endless.Noodles is every child's favourite.When authentic breakfasts like idli,upma,dosa,etc consumes a lot of time to prepare,these noodles come as a savior and are easily cooked in no time!

The normal general way of cooking Maggi/Top Ramen is-

4 Cups of water------>boil it----->add the noodles------>cook it for 1 minute------>add sausemaker------->simmer------>serve hot.

But this method is surprisingly wrong!

This is so because, these noodles that come in packets are covered with food wax as in order of food preservation. Maida,with which these noodles are prepare is easily deteroiated;hence these noodles are covered with food wax.

How is this true?

When we boil the noodles in water,we observe a white slimy layer.We need to remove this slimy layer.Our body takes three days to digest this food wax;hence we need to take this precaution.Best is to have noodles twice a week.This will also help the body to be in proper balance.

What can you do?

You can cook it in the right way!

4 cups of water---->boil it---->add noodles--->cook for 1 minute---->throw away the water---->boil water and dip these cooked noodles---->add sausemaker----->serve hot.
