(rapid chopping)
Hi everybody!
Today's recipe is Korean-styled chicken noodle soup
It's called, dak-kalguksu.
"Dak" means chicken
"kalguksu" is knife-cut noodles.
Let's make delicious dak-kalguksu.
16 cups water
4 quarts
1 pound chicken breast
16 cloves of garlic
1 medium onion
and then, boil
For one hour,
over high heat.
Let's make noodles.
Today, I'm going to make four servings.
1 cup...
So three and half cups, all-purpose flour.
And, half cup starch.
Salt, 1 teaspoon.
Cooking oil, 2 tablespoons.
I'm using grape seed oil.
Water, 1 cup.
Plus, quarter cup.
First, with a wooden spoon, just make this one big lump.
And then, we need to knead.
So use hands.
Starch make them really chewy.
While you are eating this, bowl of soup
the noodles are going to stay really chewy, and firm.
So, around one minute.
I made this one lump.
But not yet done.
I will just let it sit here, inside.
Next, I'm going to prepare this zucchini .
Cut this into matchsticks.
Like this.
Around one and half cup.
So here...
Around quarter teaspoon salt. Mix this.
Chop green onion.
Nice. We just need to knead.
When you press this, this part,
a lot of power here. So, use this part.
Okay. Around two minutes I did it.
Already looks good, but not yet enough.
But I'd like to take a break, and then I'll come back again.
Yay yay!
Boiling boiling!
Let it boil, let it boil, let it boil
Really soft now, and watery.
A little bit sesame oil.
For flavor.
Then squeeze out.
I sautéed just for one minute
over high heat.
My zucchini with a little bit sesame oil flavor is ready.
When I was young,
my family was a really huge family.
Sometimes, family members plus neighbors would come,
so they decided to make this kalguksu.
And they'd make this huge amount, this always like "this" amount.
And then,
kneading was a really, really huge job.
So I still remember like people are just,
"Okay, that's my turn! Let me do this!"
"Let me help you!"
So all family member work together.
So, I'm going to let sit again.
Usually, I really love the non-spicy version.
But, some people love spicy food.
What are you going to do?
You can make "yang-nyeom-jang"
or, this method very easy way you can make it.
Hot pepper flakes.
1 or 2 tablespoons.
And sesame oil.
2 teaspoons.
And mix.
That's it.
So one hour we cooked this.
That's enough...
(sigh) What it look like..?
Ooh~ Wow, wow~
So now, chicken
all take it out.
So garlic, right?
You can take out garlic.
We are not going to eat onion.
So we made really great chicken stock.
Color is a little milky
and clear, clear soup.
That's key point.
1 tablespoon, salt.
And this is
fish sauce.
2 teaspoons.
Garlic.
See how easily you can mash this.
And, 1 teaspoon, salt.
And 2 teaspoons, sesame oil.
And ground black pepper.
Quarter teaspoon.
And mix.
Seasoning base.
For what? Chicken~
So our chicken is here
all~ prepared.
What we have to do is make noodles, cut noodles.
Let's do.
I'm going to reheat the stock.
Look at this
really really soft.
Oh my god, really pretty.
I love that.
Okay,
so we are going to do
one more time.
The more you knead
the more chewy.
Until it has the texture of your earlobe.
Hehe~
Earlobe, don't knead your earlobe!
So I'm going to cut it in half
because I'd like to make this my cutting board size.
Okay
This guy, later I will take care of this.
(music)
...so that
all noodles are nicely cut and they will not stick to each other.
Cut this
Nice, beautiful, long~
noodles.
More flour.
In Asian cuisine,
the noodles symbolize long life.
Your life span, long life span.
So I really
whenever I make this for somebody,
I try to make it really long, as long as I can.
Okay..
So now, I'm going to do the other half of dough.
Actually, not that hard.
Easy.
High heat we'll just cook this.
Let it cook.
So around three or five minutes you cook and you will see
bubbles are coming up, and the noodles are floating.
Which means they're cooked.
And then, let's see.
Come on!
All the noodles are floating.
Look at these long noodles.
One bowl is for spicy version.
The other bowl is non-spicy version.
Here...
Chicken...
Chopped green onion...
That's it.
You can serve this way.
Today, we made
dak-kalguksu
Korean-style chicken noodle soup.
Noodles are made from scratch.
It's easy.
I hope that you guys make this and share
with your family and friends.
Mix this.
Okay
Ooh~
(slurp)
Delicious.
This here...
Noodles are super tasty
and chewy, texture is awesome.
You will see when you make this why
I'm in love with my own noodles.
And, the broth, chicken broth
very clean taste.
This is perfect, perfect Korean dak-kalguksu.
Okay, I'll give you a quiz:
What is the end of my last sentence?
"The taste can't be _____"
