Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all your ingredients. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and cook the jjolmyeon noodles according to package instructions until perfectly chewy. Immediately rinse the cooked noodles under cold running water to remove excess starch, then drain them thoroughly in a colander.

In a mixing bowl, add the drained jjolmyeon noodles. Arrange the prepared marinated cucumber, pickled radish, and the conch sauce or cooked conch over the noodles. Next, add the seasoning ingredients: 1 tablespoon of gochujang, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of the secret powder for extra flavor. Finish with a light drizzle of sesame oil.
Step 3
Using chopsticks or tongs, gently toss and mix all the ingredients with the seasoning. Be careful not to break the delicate jjolmyeon noodles. Ensure the sauce coats everything evenly for the best flavor.
Step 4
Transfer the well-mixed Sora Jjolmyeon to a serving bowl. Garnish with half of a hard-boiled egg to make it visually appealing. Enjoy your delicious and chewy Sora Jjolmyeon!
