Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Mixing often-discarded kimchi brine and pickled radish liquid into naengmyeon broth achieves a perfect balance of acidity and umami without any complex seasoning.
  • The broth flavor can vary depending on the ripeness of the kimchi; if it's too sour, add about half a tablespoon of sugar to neutralize the sourness.
  • After cooking, rinse the noodles vigorously in cold water to remove starch, keeping the broth from becoming cloudy and maintaining the chewy texture of the noodles.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a cool, clean noodle dish without spending a long time in front of the stove on a hot summer day.
  • Those who want to deliciously use up leftover kimchi brine and pickled radish liquid at home.
