Recipe

Cooking tips

  • For better flavor and reduced fishiness, microwave anchovies and dried shrimp for 20 seconds before making the broth.
  • Adding raw soybean powder to the dough enhances the noodle’s nuttiness and chewiness.
  • Cook the broth until slightly thickened to achieve the rich, savory depth characteristic of old-fashioned market kalguksu.
  • Season only with salt instead of soy sauce for a cleaner, less heavy broth.

Recommended for

  • Those craving a warm, hearty soup on rainy or cold days.
  • Those wanting to enjoy soft yet chewy homemade noodles made from scratch.
  • Those wishing to recreate the authentic taste of the kalguksu once enjoyed at local markets.
