Known forIndomie mi goreng instant noodles

Nunuk Nuraini (1961 – 27 January 2021), also known as Bu Nunuk ("Mrs. Nunuk"), was an Indonesian food scientist who invented Indomie's mi goreng-flavor instant noodles.[1][2]

West Java governor Ridwan Kamil called her pahlawan bagi anak-anak kos ("hero for the boarding house kids").[3][4] The mi goreng flavor is described as a "cult favorite".[5] The noodles are popular around the world, so much so that starting in 1995 the company had built three factories in Nigeria alone.[6]

Nuraini was born in Bandung, Indonesia.[2] She graduated from Padjadjaran University in that city with a degree in food technology.[3] Nuraini was a follower of Islam.[1] She worked for Indofood as the flavor department manager,[2][1] developing recipes there for almost three decades.[6][3] She developed the popular mi goreng flavor in 1982,[5] which was the first "dry" flavor sold without broth.[7] Nuraini originated the flavor with traditional ingredients.[8] Other flavors she invented include chicken curry,[4] green chili,[5] rendang,[4] salted egg,[5] sambal matah,[4] and soto.[4] Despite having many fans, Nuraini rarely appeared in public.[8]

Cases of Indomie instant noodles

Her death was confirmed by Indofood's head of public relations, Nurlita Novi Arlaida, who wrote: Ibu Hj Nunuk Nuraini wafat hari ini dan pulang dengan tenang ke pangkuan Allah SWT ("Mrs. Hajjah Nunuk Nuraini has died today and is returning peacefully to God's side").[3] The cause of Nuraini's death was not specified.[3] Following her death, numerous tributes to Nuraini were posted on social media, thanking her for her work and expressing pride for it being a product of Indonesia.[9]
