RECIPE INSTRUCTION
(Serving Size: 1 Adult)
To Make The Korean Radish Pickles:
Slice the radish thin (as shown in the video). Place the sliced radishes in a bowl, add coarse sea salt and mix well to coat every slice with salt. Let it rest on your kitchen counter for 20-30 minutes. You'll notice that a lot of the radish liquid has drained out by now. Under running cold water, thoroughly rinse the sliced radish to remove the excess salt. Then, place the radish slices in your palm and squeeze out the excess water using your other palm to gently squeeze. (Taste one of the slices. It should taste slightly salty. If it tastes too salty, rinse the slices in cold water again.) Place the rinsed radishes back in a bowl, add vinegar, Korean red pepper flakes, and mix well. (If you prefer a sweet pickled taste, add 1/2 - 1 Tsp of sugar and mix well.) Personally, I prefer the natural sweetness of the Korean radish, instead of the sugary sweet taste. Store the radish pickle slices in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight, if you are not in a rush. You can prepare this radish pickles a day before. Just store in the refrigerator.
(If you are substituting cucumber for Korean radish, remove the inner core/seed of the cucumber. Slice it thin, add 1/2 Tbsp of coarse sea salt and mix well. Let it rest on your kitchen counter for no more than10 minutes. Rinse well in cold water. And follow the steps listed above.)
To Make The GoChuJang BiBim Sauce
Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Let the sauce rest in the refrigerator for at least a few hours or overnight. This resting period is needed, especially for the raw taste of the fresh garlic puree to subside. Mix the sauce again before using on your NaengMyeon.
To Make The Poached Beef Brisket
If you want to learn how to make the beef broth that is used for Mul NaengMyeon, please watch my video on Mul NaengMyeon which includes poaching the beef brisket. For a simple method of poaching the beef brisket, follow the steps below.
In a medium pot, bring 2/3 of water to boil. Add salt to create a salt bath (just enough salt to make the water taste slightly salty, but not overwhelmingly salty) and add the ingredients listed above. Cover the lid and let it cook for 30 minutes on low heat. Transfer the liquid and the beef brisket into a cooling bowl. Once the liquid has come to room temperature, place the beef brisket and some of the liquid, and store in the refrigerator for at least a few hours or until the beef brisket is cold/firm. Then thinly slice the beef brisket for your NaengMyeon topping.
To Cook The NaengMyeon Noodles
Once you are all done with prepping the sauce and all the fixings for your NaengMyeon, then you are ready to cook the noodles. You do not want to cook the noodles and work on prepping other items for this dish. Cooking the noodles should be the last step. In a medium pot (4-quart pot is used in the video), add 2/3 of water and bring to boil. (This is for cooking just 1 serving of noodles. If you are cooking more than 2 servings of noodles, use a large pot.) Add some salt to taste (just add enough to make the water slightly salty), then add the noodles.
(If using frozen fresh NaengMyeon noodles, bring the frozen noodles to room temperature or defrost in the refrigerator. Then toss the fresh noodles to untangle and let the noodles "breath" and separate from each other. Do not let it "breath" for more than 2 minutes since you want to avoid drying out the noodles.)
The stovetop heat remains at high, and constantly stir the noodles. You will notice the water bubbles rising to the brim of the pot. Lower the heat until you see the bubbles subside and then quickly turn the stovetop heat back to high. The fresh noodles will cook faster (less than 2 minutes). Take a sample noodle and dip in cold water to cool it down, and have a taste. It should still taste chewy but not doughy. For dried noodles, it might take a minute or so longer than the fresh noodles.
Once the noodles are "al dente," transfer the noodles into a bowl of cold water and bring to your sink to rinse. Quickly rinse the noodles in cold water to bring down the temperature. Follow the steps as shown in the video.
The goal is to start consuming the noodles within the first 5 minutes of cooking, which will be at its optimal taste. Consuming it 10 minutes after cooking will have a significant difference in taste (i.e. bloated and soft noodle taste).
Enjoying Your NaengMyeon Noodles
Place the noodles in the center of a large bowl, pour the GoChuJang sauce on the noodles, and layer the top with all the fixings. Now, your BiBim NaengMyeon is all ready to be served. Push all the fixings to the side of the bowl and mix the noodles well with the GoChuJang sauce. (If you prefer a slightly more vinegary taste, add some vinegar as your condiment.) Make yourself a bite with some noodles and each piece of the fixings....YUM!
Now, this is just my personal way to enjoy BiBim NaengMyeon. When I'm done eating half of the noodles, I like to add the Mul NaengMyeon broth to the BiBim NaengMyeon. Mix the broth well so that the GoChuJang sauce is blended well into the broth. Now, pick up the bowl with both hands and gulp the spicy broth. SO YUM!!! The broth is cold, refreshing,, and it still gives you that spicy kick.
