Cooking tips

  • To prevent the beany odor during boiling, keep the pot lid open throughout cooking or cook it completely covered.
  • The bean-boiling water is rich in sweetness and depth—never discard it; use it as broth when blending the beans.
  • Adding a small amount of jujube nuts or peanut butter when blending enhances the nutty richness of the soup.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a quick, refreshing, and hearty summer noodle soup without the hassle of overnight soaking.
  • People who want to make soybean kalguksu fast without the tedious prep of soaking beans the night before.
