Kim Dae-seok's Muskmelon Cucumber Cold Noodle Soup

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Always remove muskmelon seeds completely, as they can cloud the broth. Use the skin when slicing.
• For a cleaner, more flavorful broth, crush and mince garlic by hand rather than using pre-minced store-bought garlic.
• Plum syrup and lemon juice are key ingredients that bring the signature tanginess and savory sweetness to the cold soup.
• Do not add ice directly into the entire batch of broth, as it will dilute the flavor. Instead, place ice in each serving bowl before pouring in the soup.
