    I love that you guys don't colour correct these Quarantine Cooking videos to make the food look sexier; It makes sense because no amount of colour correction is gonna make these soups and stews sexier than they already are. This is the best type of food already.

    This is the best noodle soup I've ever eaten. I adjusted some ingredients based off of what I had, but it still turned out awesome. Putting in the seaweed makes a huge difference, and I garnished with tamari and hot sauce.

  • @andrewkong3154
    @andrewkong3154 3 роки тому +21

    As a Korean-American, I can say that the stuff that I grew up with is not nearly as layered with flavor as this. Maybe it was, but might also be because I never wanted to eat this when I was younger, so there may be some psychosomatic reference points for the dish.
    For context, I should disclose that when I was very little, I cried when I had this dish the first few times because my mom said I literally would look for sharp knives in my soup because of the translation ("kahl=knife" "guk-soo=noodle") and I didn't understand why anybody would put that in their soup.
    Obviously, this looks amazing. I can now report that there are, in fact, no knives in this soup as a 35 year old human of the earth. Slurp away folks!

    • @HKim0072
      @HKim0072 3 роки тому

      Many Korean dishes aren't "balanced". The banchan provides the balance.
      Tteok mandu-guk is a very heavy dish, but spicy or vinegar based banchan provides the contrasting flavors.

    • @andrewkong3154
      @andrewkong3154 3 роки тому

      @@HKim0072 Yea, I totally get that. I wasn't stating that they weren't balanced just that I've only ever had this dish when the broth was seasoned with salt and pepper and garnishes consisted of green onions and maybe some crushed up seaweed. This version being demonstrated in the video has so many additional things going on is what I was pointing out.

    i made this, and it is absolutely amazing. i used korean soup soy sauce instead of soy sauce and fish sauce, swapped out white vinegar for apple vinegar, and used my boyfriend's roommates moms homemade chili oil. i also used seasoned and roasted seaweed that you get in those mini packs. so flavorful, and the vinegar balances out the saltiness. its nice because i didn't have to make the noodles, the asian store near me already carries fresh kalguksu.
