So happy with my Noodle Legend Cookbook and Kit, that I have sent it as a gift to my son, who loves it. His partner runs a professional cooking school, and is very pleased to be cooked for! He can cook to her high standards using the kit. I also sent one to my sister as a birthday present. She and her husband use it all the time. And me? I have all the 'Legends', but I think the Noodle is my current favourite as it's a cuisine I haven't felt confident with cooking before. The recipes are so easy to follow, and the results far out weigh my ability level.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Wendy - we're so pleased to hear that the Noodle Legend kit has given you the confidence to tackle Chinese cuisine!

5/5

Super little book with all the spices you need a lovely addition to my husbands collection of kits from The Spicery, he’s already cooking me some lovely recipes from it

We're so pleased to hear how much your husband is loving his new Cookbook Kit (and we hope you are enjoying eating the produce of it!)

5/5

This is our third box and we are very happy with it. We live quite rurally and can't always access the spices we want to and so find the whole concept of these books and tins quite handy to have in the cupboard and the kids get involved too even if they don't eat everything. Love the northern style dumplings, we now make them in batches to freeze. Excellent for gifting too!

Thank you so much for your lovely review - we're so pleased to hear that our Cookbook Kits have allowed you to cook delicious, spicy dishes from your countryside home. Great idea to make a big batch of dumplings and freeze them!

5/5

I bought ourselves a kit and gave one as a family gift I’m a takeaway noodles addict and will probably do them at home from now on Delicious!! I was also hopelessly unable to actually open my own ma la spice tin I was sent a replacement within 48 hrs Amazing service and well worth the wait

We're so pleased to hear how happy you are with both our products and our service! We hope you enjoy many delicious homemade Noodle Legend meals (now that you're able to get into your Ma La blend!)

5/5

Have curry and taco legend kits. Made gong bao recipe but added mushrooms. Really tasty

We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the taste of this classic Chinese dish - nice idea to add mushrooms for a bit of extra veg!

5/5

I bought this kit for my daughter and we made the Ginger Chicken with a side of Three Earthly Treasures. Both dishes were delicious! It took us longer to prepare the ingredients than it did to cook the meal. And then we both ate our meals with relish. I can't wait to visit my daughter again, both to see her, but also to try another Noodle Legend meal!

It's lovely to hear about your precious time spent with your daughter, cooking and enjoying a delicious meal together! We hope you love discovering loads more wonderful dishes on your joint journey through the Noodle Legend book!

5/5

Another family hit! Already have two of Curry legend cookbooks and kits which are fabulous. Saw the noodle legend kit on offer and had to give it a go. Whilst it is slightly more faffy cooking for 4 with the noodle recipes, the results are still fantastic. The actual cooking has been relatively quick so even if doing two batches of 2 meals, the food is always fresh and hot! My only criticism is the kits are so good we never have takeaways anymore as they just don't compare for flavour and taste!

We are so pleased to hear that you're loving your new Noodle Legend kit as much as your Curry Legend kits, even if it means you're not getting those cheeky takeaways anymore... ;) Why bother when you can make it just as good yourself at home?! Happy spicing!

5/5

I thought taco legend was great, I thought the curry legends were great, but the noodle legend is amazing, I’d definitely recommend. Ps taco and curry legends are equally amazing)

Thank you for your wonderful review, Richard - we're so pleased to hear how much you love all of the Legend Kits, but especially Noodle Legend!

5/5

Amazing recipes, as always, my Daughter Alba was given this box as a gift for her birthday and has been getting more and more adventurous, but she really went for it this christmas eve! Not bad for a 14yr old

Wow - we are seriously impressed! This incredible feast must have taken a huge amount of effort, planning and preparation. And all at just 14 years old! You are a Legend, Alba!

5/5

I’ve tried a few of The Spicery’s 'Legend' kits before, but this one might be my new favorite. The four spice blends make it so simple to get those authentic flavors without having to buy 20 different jars of spices. I’ve made the Chicken Chow Mein and the Szechuan King Prawns so far, both were absolutely delicious and tasted much fresher than my local takeaway. The book is beautiful with a photo for every single recipe, which makes it really easy to follow. Highly recommend

Thank you so much for your fantastic review - we're thrilled to hear how much you love the latest addition to the Legend family, Noodle Legend! We hope you love discovering loads of delicious new dishes as you journey through the book - happy spicing!

5/5

I bought a How to be a Noodle Legend Cookbook kit for my husband earlier in the year and we have loved cooking the recipes from it so much that I have bought one for my nephew for Christmas. The recipes are easy to follow and we already have several favourites (including King Prawns in Szechuan Sauce and Soy Sauce Chicken). We recently tried the chicken chow mein which went down really well with our daughter. I can't wait for my husband to be out so that I can try one of the noodles for one recipes! We already have the How to be a Curry Legend and the World Curry book and, as with those, the noodle kit is fantastic addition to the kitchen.

We're so pleased that you are loving the journey of becoming Noodle Legends - we hope your nephew loves his gift just as much! Happy spicing!

5/5

I treated myself to this Noodle Legend Cookbook Kit because we love Chinese/Thai food. I've tried two dishes so far and they were both brilliant. We were in such a hurry to eat them, I forgot to take a photo of them!! I love that the spices are already prepared for you which makes it so much quicker to do the recipe. Love it.

We're so pleased to hear how much you're loving your Noodle Legend journey already! We hope you enjoy discovering loads more amazing dishes!

5/5

Love noodles and Chinese food so treated myself to this. I live in France and this arrived safe with no issues. So far made several noodle dishes and satay. The spice mixes do simplify the whole process and having made a lot of these types of dishes in the past it saves a lot of time and wasted ingredients.

We're loving the festive vibes in this photo! And thank you for the glowing review of your Noodle Legend kit, we're so happy to hear how much you're enjoying using it over in France!

5/5

I have bought this as a gift for my daughter who loves Chinese food. I have bought the curry kits previously and they are a great way to make authentic, tasty food very easily. I’ve had a Quick Look at the noodle legend recipes and they look great. I can’t wait to try them out. What a fabulous idea to blend the spices, to save us the job! Excellent

We're so pleased to hear that you already love our Curry Legend Kit, and we're sure that both you and your daughter will love the Noodle Legend Kit just as much!

5/5

I love this kit. We have been spicery fans for years and always enjoyed Asian dishes that appeared in date night boxes so to be able to make these all the time is fab. So many new favourites and so many more I haven't yet tried but can't wait to

We're so pleased to hear that you're loving the Noodle Legend kit and being able to recreate some of your favourite dishes from your Date Night subscription!

5/5

I was so excited to hear there was a new book from The Spicery! The recipes and spices are great, we've already used it a few times and it's been great each time. Love how easy it is to follow and it's fun to be able to make such amazing meals :)

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Jemma - we're so pleased to hear how much you're loving the Noodle Legend kit so far! We hope you enjoy making many amazing meals with it!

5/5

I couldn’t wait to try the recipes and I wasn’t disappointed. My first meal cooked for the family was the Chicken Satay and egg fried rice. It was delicious, it went down really well. Very little was left on the plates. Now m itching do do some more as soon as I can. Well done Spicery another legend book added to my collection.

We're so pleased to hear that your Noodle Legend journey has started with a bang! We hope you love discovering loads of fantastic dishes as you get to use it more!

5/5

I was undecided on whether to buy this book as we’re not huge noodle fans but when I saw the October offer I couldn’t resist! We’ve had this kit less than a week and we love it already. So far we’ve had (in the style of a Chinese takeaway!) 36, 62, 148, 168, 186 and none of them have disappointed. I forgot to add the wet ingredients to the skewers but they still turned out great, I’ll have to make them again properly and see what difference it makes

We're so pleased to hear that the Noodle Legend kit exceeded your expectations, and we're super impressed by the number of dishes you've created in that short space of time! We hope you love discovering loads more delicious things as you get to use the kit a bit more!

5/5

The Spicery is a wonderful company to deal with. This latest cook book and kit are a credit to them. I cannot imagine the hours, days, weeks or months of work involved in bringing it to fruition. I have been using The Spicery spices for a long time now and they always deliver in terms of quality and taste. It feels as though you are dealing with a small family firm that cares about the product and cares about the customers’ satisfaction. Long may it last!

What a wonderful review, thank you so much for being part of the Spicery family and for taking the time to share these kind words with us! We really appreciate it!

5/5

This kit is a great way to be able to easily cook a range of Chinese and British Chinese dishes (as expected, as we already have the Curry Legend Veggie Table and World Tour). I like how the book has such variety, from alternatives to instant noodles to much more involved dishes. We've particularly enjoyed the section of more adventurous dishes, which are very much up our street. As a vegetarian, it is always satisfying to find good ways to make them meat-free - so far we've made multiple chicken dishes just by replacing the chicken with torn firm tofu. The only issue we had was that our kit didn't come with the measuring spoon, but support were helpful and said we could have one with a future order.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback - we're so pleased to hear how much you're enjoying the Noodle Legend journey, and great job adapting the recipes to make veggie versions!
