Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Here’s how to make a guaranteed-delicious, spicy Kimchi Bibim Guksu that anyone can easily whip up in no time!
Step 2
First, boil the somyeon noodles. While the noodles are cooking, finely chop the kimchi. In a bowl, combine the chopped kimchi with all the seasoning ingredients and mix well. This pre-seasoned kimchi will be perfectly ready to be mixed with the boiled noodles for a quick and satisfying dish.
Step 3
Add the Kimchi Seasoning ingredients (Gochugaru, Sugar, Gochujang) to the prepared kimchi.
Step 4
Finally, add sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds to enhance the kimchi’s savory and nutty flavors.
Step 5
Mix all the seasoning ingredients thoroughly with the kimchi. Gently mix rather than vigorously kneading to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 6
Set the seasoned kimchi aside. Pre-seasoning it ensures a better harmony with the noodles when combined.
Step 7
Combine the chopped kimchi with the prepared seasoning to create the delicious sauce that will be mixed with the somyeon noodles.
Step 8
Mix the kimchi and seasoning together to create a flavorful bibim sauce ready to be tossed with the noodles.
Step 9
For the toppings, boil the eggs and cut them in half. Thinly slice the cucumber and wash and tear the lettuce leaves into bite-sized pieces. Fresh vegetables will add wonderful texture and flavor to your bibim guksu.
Step 10
Boil the somyeon noodles in plenty of water until they are al dente and chewy. Once cooked, rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch and drain thoroughly. Then, add the seasoned kimchi to the noodles and toss everything together quickly and evenly. Be sure to mix quickly to prevent the noodles from becoming mushy.
Step 11
Plate the perfectly mixed Kimchi Bibim Guksu and garnish with the prepared halved eggs, sliced cucumber, and lettuce. Enjoy your delicious homemade Kimchi Bibim Guksu – a fantastic choice for a weekend lunch or a simple, satisfying meal!
