Kalguksu
Knife-cut wheat noodles in a clear, savory broth—built from beef stock you already have, finished with soy, garlic, and scallion.
Start from beef bone broth (or a mix with chicken bone broth) as foundational broth. This pass seasons the liquor and cooks fresh kalguksu noodles in the pot—no new bone extraction.
Ingredients
- 2.5–3 L beef bone broth or chicken bone broth
- 300–400 g fresh or dried kalguksu noodles
- Light soy sauce, garlic, scallion, salt
- optionalZucchini or potato, thin-sliced
- optionalShiitake or dried kelp for depth
Method
- Warm the bone broth; season lightly with soy, garlic, and salt.

- Add kalguksu noodles; cook until chewy-tender per package.
- Finish with scallion and white pepper; serve immediately.
