Cooking tips
- Do not add whole sesame seeds directly—crush them by hand first to release a richer, smoother aroma into the broth.
- Adding one pack of store-bought cold noodle broth helps balance flavors easily, delivering a deep, restaurant-quality umami taste.
- After boiling the noodles, rinse them thoroughly under cold water while rubbing to completely wash away starch—this prevents cloudiness in the broth and keeps the noodles chewy.
Recommended for
- Those lacking appetite due to summer heat who crave a refreshing, tangy-sweet noodle dish.
- Home cooks wanting to make delicious cold noodle broth without fail.
