Ingredients
- 3.52 oz Korean wheat noodles (aka Somyeon) extra thin round kind
- ¼ cup cucumber sliced into matchsticks
- 1 egg
Sauce:
- ¼ cup kimchi (well fermented kind)
- 2 tablespoon Regular soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Gochujang
- 1 tablespoon white granulated sugar or sub with honey
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add your kimchi and begin cutting into smaller pieces with clean kitchen scissors. Next add all Sauce ingredients as listed above and mix well.
- Bring a small pot of water to boil. Lower the egg into the boiling water and cook for 7 minutes over high heat, uncovered. Set a timer. If you like your eggs hardboiled, boil for 10 minutes. Then submerge the cooked egg into an ice bath. Crack and peel egg. Slice it into half and set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a medium large pot filled half way with water, bring it to boil. Add noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes until chewy. *Make sure to taste for desired consistency. Strain the noodles and rinse them under cold water until noodles are cold. Then give them a shake in the strainer to remove any excess water.
- Add strained noodles to your sauce and mix well with clean hands. Transfer to serving bowl. Top off with sliced cucumbers and egg. Enjoy!
