A super-simple, budget-friendly chogye guksu that even a novice can whip up in 5 minutes by mixing store-bought naengmyeon broth with canned chicken breast liquid and prepared mustard.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Cooking tips

  • If you add prepared mustard directly to the broth, it will clump and be difficult to dissolve. Dissolve it in a small amount of water first to ensure it mixes evenly.
  • The liquid from the canned chicken breast contains the rich flavor of chicken broth. Don't discard it — mix it into the naengmyeon broth for a deeper chogye-tang taste.
  • For an even more refreshing experience, place the finished chogye broth in the freezer for a short while before you start cooking so that a thin layer of ice forms on the surface.
  • Instead of somyeon, you can use jungmyeon, buckwheat noodles, or even udon noodles — they all pair wonderfully with the broth.

Recommended for

  • Those craving a tangy, refreshing, and revitalizing cold broth dish on a sweltering summer day.
  • Those who find handling a whole chicken and making long-simmered chicken broth too cumbersome and want to make chogye guksu easily with supermarket ingredients.
  • Those who want to enjoy canned chicken breast in a new, more culinary and delicious way.
