This is Nissin's own recreation of the dish, not a Thai product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eカップヌードル パクチー香るトムヤムクン ビッグ, \u003cem\u003epakuchii kaoru tomu yamu kun\u003c\/em\u003e: \u003cem\u003epakuchii\u003c\/em\u003e is coriander, and it sits in the product's own name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you're getting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYou set the heat yourself.\u003c\/strong\u003e The tom yum paste comes as its own sachet, stirred in at the end, all of it, half of it, or none.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSour first, hot second.\u003c\/strong\u003e The acidity is the assertive part, pitched above the instant tom yum sold in Thailand itself, and the chilli sits behind it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCreamy, not thin.\u003c\/strong\u003e Coconut milk and a dairy component round the soup out. This is the richer style of tom yum, not the clear one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhole prawns, red chilli, mushroom and coriander\u003c\/strong\u003e loose in the cup, on a slightly wider noodle than the standard Cup Noodle uses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the coriander:\u003c\/strong\u003e it is in the product's Japanese name, so it looks like the headline, but it is the smallest of the four toppings, and milder than the name promises. It cannot be left out, though, so if coriander is a hard no for you, this is not your cup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe honest caveat:\u003c\/strong\u003e people who bounce off this cup bounce off the sourness, not the herb. If sharp, sour soup is not what you want, buy a different one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllergens\u003c\/strong\u003e: contains prawn (crustacean), wheat, milk, sesame and soy. Read the pack's own label before you rely on ours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe milk is real, not a coconut substitute: a dairy-based ingredient is named in the soup, so this is not dairy-free. Chicken is declared too, though it appears nowhere by name in the ingredient list. This is the Japanese domestic cup: Coles sells a Nissin tom yam cup as well, but that one is a smaller, China-made seafood version rather than this. Eat it slowly: the sour chilli steam coming off it catches in the throat if you rush. The lid is aluminium, so never microwave it in its own cup; Nissin warns of fire risk.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nissin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48289726005474,"sku":"SH-NDL-0024","price":5.48,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0824\/1312\/5858\/files\/nissin-cup-noodle-tom-yum-kung-big-cup.webp?v=1788097370","url":"https:\/\/shintop.com.au\/products\/nissin-cup-noodle-tom-yum-kung","provider":"Shintop Trading Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
