Are buldak noodles the spiciest noodles?

Despite having 4,404 Scoville units, Samyang’s original buldak bokkeum myeon hot chicken flavor ramen aren’t the spiciest noodles they produce. The buldak bokkeum myeon mini (hot chicken flavor ramen mini), with 12,000 Scoville units, is the spiciest noodle.

  • gochugaru – Korean chili flakes bring smokiness and a bit of heat and crunch.
  • gochujang – This is where the majority of the spice is coming from, especially if you use an extra spicy gochujang.
  • soy sauce – soy sauce adds umami and saltiness. If you have Korean soy sauce, use that, otherwise the next best for this recipe is Japanese soy sauce.
  • sugar – a little bit of sweetness accentuates the spicy heat. The combo of sweet and spicy is classic in Korean food. Traditionally they use jocheong (rice syrup) but we’re going to go with sugar for ease.
  • garlic – fresh garlic adds the heat. If you a garlic lover, raw garlic is essential, add as many cloves as you can handle. For the chicken, the garlic cooks, but if you’re just making buldak sauce for noodles, the raw garlic will surprise you at how spicy it is.
  • You might not be familiar with gochujang or gochugaru if you aren’t a fan of Korean cuisine.

  • Gochujang is a spicy Korean sauce. It’s savory, sweet, spicy thick fermented paste made from chili powder and sticky rice. It adds sweet and heat and a ton of flavor. Traditionally it comes in tubs, but these days you can find it in convenient squeeze bottles in the Asian aisle of literally any grocery store and online, of course.
  • Gochugaru, on the other hand, are Korean chili flakes. Korean chili flakes are fruity, sweet, smoky, sun dried bright red flakes. They’re not too spicy and their heat is gentle and delicious. I always buy coarse gochugaru which looks like flaky sea salt. They usually come labeled with mild, medium, or hot, so you can buy them according to your spice preference.
  • But still, the spicy lover in me couldn’t resist it. So I went to Rada Mart, my favorite Korean store, and purchased a packet of the buldak bokkeum myun.

    korean fire noodlesBeing a spicy food lover, enthusiast, advocate and worshiper, I was itching to try the Samyang Buldak Bokkeum Myun (불닭볶음면) instant noodles, or more popularly called Korean Fire Noodles.

    Even though I can only boil instant noodles and fry hot dogs, I still have the delusion that I am qualified to write a cooking manual.

    I was considering taking part in the Korean Fire Noodle Challenge to see who could handle the heat, but I quickly realized (thankfully) that I am not a vlogger. I detest addressing the camera, and I am not at all photogenic. Let’s leave that to the Youtube stars.

    If you do want to torture yourself, you can find this instant noodles available locally, but where can I buy it in the Philippines? Buldak Bokkeum Myun is quite simple to locate in the nation because almost all Korean marts I’ve been to carry it. My purchase was made at the Legaspi Village Rada Mart in Makati. There’s a cup noodle version of this, too.

    Step 2 – Boil the Water and Cook the Noodles

    You must open and prepare your perfect Samyang noodle pack at home now that you’ve chosen it. Put two cups of water, or just enough to cover your noodles, in a medium-sized pot.

    Add the brick of noodles when the water begins to boil without cutting it in half or more (although you can do this if you prefer shorter noodles). Cook them for approximately 2 minutes, or until the desired consistency is achieved.

    Personally, I don’t like very soft instant noodles because I find them to be too soggy and chewy. I like them nearly al dente, as Italians would say. Furthermore, you must wait until the water is boiling before cooking them.
