Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- 1 pack buckwheat soba ramen
- 1 packet of included liquid soup base
- 1 included radish block
- about 60ml water (1/3 paper cup)
- 0.5 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp vinegar
- chives, to taste
- 2–3 tbsp sour kimchi
- a little sesame oil
- 1/2 hard-boiled egg
- ice cubes, to taste
Recipe 🍳
- Boil the buckwheat noodles in boiling water for 4 minutes 30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly under cold water, rubbing to remove excess starch, and drain completely.
- In a mixing bowl, add the entire packet of buckwheat soba liquid soup base, 1/3 cup water, and the included radish block.
- Add 0.5 tablespoon sugar and 1 tablespoon vinegar, then mix well until the radish block is completely broken down to complete the soy-based makguksu broth.
- Float a few ice cubes in the prepared soy broth to make it even colder.
- Add the cooked buckwheat noodles to the broth and gently toss so the broth coats all the noodles.
- Finely chop the chives and pile them generously on top of the noodles.
- Finely chop 2–3 tablespoons of well-fermented sour kimchi and place on top, then drizzle a little fragrant sesame oil.
- Finally, top with half a hard-boiled egg as garnish to finish.
- Boil buckwheat noodles for 4 minutes 30 seconds, rinse in cold water, and drain well.
- Combine liquid soup base, water, radish block, sugar, vinegar, and ice to make a sweet, tangy, and cold broth.
- Place noodles in the broth and top with finely chopped chives, kimchi, a drizzle of sesame oil, and a hard-boiled egg in order.
Cooking tips 💡
- Chop the chives as finely as possible so they blend smoothly with the noodles and broth without clumping.
- Use sour, well-fermented kimchi rather than fresh kimchi to complement the sweet and tangy soy broth.
- For an even more refreshing experience, briefly freeze the prepared broth until a thin layer of ice forms before adding the noodles.
