Samyang Tangl Chunky Tomato Pasta is an instant pasta product from the Korean food brand Samyang. The key difference from regular Italian pasta lies in the texture and ingredient composition of the noodles. In addition to wheat flour, the noodles contain chickpea powder and concentrated soy protein, giving them a springier, chewier bite than standard pasta. The sauce features a rich tomato flavour built on a base of tomato, garlic, and onion. Simply cook the noodles in boiling water, drain, and toss with the included sauce — ready in under 5 minutes.
