Get a pot of hot water going and then add your buckwheat noodles and boil it according to the instructions. It usually ends up being about 5-10 minutes of boiling time.

Then rinse your noodles under cold water and set aside.


_MG_1983
Just use a mandolin to slice all your vegetables. Left to right: Asian pear, cucumber, carrot, onion.


_MG_1990
Perilla leaves and red cabbage.


_MG_1989
Sliced red leaf lettuce.


_MG_1992
Now we are going to start assembly. Start off getting a fairly large plate and centering about 2 cups of noodles into the middle.


_MG_1994
Add some thinly cut dried seaweed (seasoned) place it in the middle.


  _MG_1995
Add the vegetables on opposite ends like this. You will be using two small bunches of each vegetable.


_MG_1997
Just keep going...

...until you use all the vegetables up. (You can also add sliced boiled eggs).

Then go to the fridge and grab the sauce mixture and add as much as your tastebuds can handle. YUMMY!


_MG_2006
Mix it around thoroughly and you're ready to eat!

It was just what I needed for today's hot weather. ENJOY!!!

Mushroom Moochim - (버섯 볶음)

I debated on whether to post this since it's not really a recipe of sorts. But just in case you're wondering what I eat during the week.


_MG_1280
I told you I love all types of mushrooms.


_MG_1285
I rinsed two mushrooms thoroughly...


_MG_1287
...and then sliced it up into thinner pieces.


_MG_1290
Then I seasoned it with 1/2 TB of minced garlic, 1 TB sesame oil, and 3/4 TB gook ganjang. Remember to visit Korean Cooking 101 if you have any questions about ingredients!!!


_MG_1292
Throw in about 1/4 a small sliced onion and mix it up well.


_MG_1294
Stir fry it for a few minutes until golden.


_MG_1301
Sprinkle on some sesame seeds and you're ready to serve! I usually take the leftovers the next day and just mix it around with some cold tofu.
