That is the place I am at with Eric Kim’s recipe for butter gochujang noodles (above). The transformation is in full swing. I made it final week with ssamjang as an alternative of gochujang within the sauce, much less dense in spices, and with frozen dumplings as an alternative of noodles. That was nice. A couple of nights later I made it once more, this time including slices of steak, candy savory Chinese language sausage, and changing the noodles with Korean rice muffins.
That was cool too. So this weekend, I am placing collectively a problem for you. Make Eric’s dish the way in which he needed it, or take it in no matter path your pantry and style buds permit. Cook dinner with confidence. It is simply butter, garlic, spice, sweetness, umami, and starch. Good each time.
