Essential Ingredients- Somyeon noodles 100g (1 serving)
- 1 fresh egg yolk
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Fill a large pot with plenty of water and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, add the 100g of somyeon noodles (for one serving). Use chopsticks to gently loosen the noodles and cook for 3-4 minutes. It’s crucial to prevent the noodles from sticking together and to cook them until they are perfectly chewy and al dente.
Step 2
Drain the cooked somyeon noodles in a colander. Rinse them under cold running water 1 to 2 times. This rinsing step helps to firm up the noodles, making them even chewier. After rinsing, shake off excess water and immediately transfer the noodles to a serving bowl.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the special soy sauce dressing that is the heart of this delicious Bibim Guksu! In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of oligosaccharide (adjust sweetness to your preference), 1/3 to 1/2 tablespoon of minced garlic, and 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of gochugaru. Whisk all ingredients together until well combined to create the dressing.
Step 4
Pour the freshly made, flavorful soy sauce dressing generously over the noodles in the serving bowl. Carefully place the fresh egg yolk in the center. Finally, drizzle 1 tablespoon of sesame oil for a nutty aroma and sprinkle a good amount of sesame seeds for both visual appeal and taste. Your delicious Soy Sauce Bibim Guksu is almost ready!
Step 5
Now, it’s time to mix everything together beautifully with chopsticks! Enjoy the delightful combination of chewy noodles, savory soy sauce dressing, and the creamy egg yolk. Your fantastic Soy Sauce Bibim Guksu is complete! Enjoy your meal!
