Kim Dae-seok's Anchovy Broth Noodles

Cooking tips 💡

• Before using dried anchovy and dried shrimp for broth, briefly microwave them for 30 seconds. This removes dampness and unpleasant fishy smell, resulting in a fresher, richer broth.
• Cooking the noodles in salty water—even if the noodles are thin—creates a much firmer, chewier texture that holds up well even when mixed with broth.
• After boiling, rinse the noodles thoroughly under cold water or tap water, vigorously rubbing them with your palms to remove foam and starch residue. This preserves their light, clean taste.
• Do not mix the seasoning sauce directly into the noodles right away. First sip the clear broth lightly, then gradually mix in the sauce. This allows you to fully appreciate the layered harmony of both flavors.
