Cooking tips

  • Zucchini, green onion, and Cheongyang chili pepper can become mushy and turn yellow if overcooked, so they must be added at the very end of cooking to maintain their crisp texture and vibrant color.
  • The amount of broth may vary due to differences in heat intensity or pot size; if the broth becomes too thick while cooking, replenish with warm water as needed to adjust.
  • You can also use somen noodles instead of kalguksu noodles. In this case, you can cook the somen directly in the broth without boiling them separately, to retain their starchiness.
  • Fish sauce is a key seasoning that adds deep flavor to the broth. You can use any type you have on hand, such as gannari or anchovy fish sauce.

  • Those who want to fill up with a hearty and satisfying noodle dish.
