Instructions
- 1
Whisk the gochujang, apple cider vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and minced garlic together in a small bowl to create a balanced sweet, tangy, and spicy dressing.
- 2
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the buckwheat noodles for 3-4 minutes, stirring so they don't clump.
- 3
Drain the noodles and immediately scrub them vigorously in a bowl of ice-cold water to remove surface starch and cool them down completely. Drain well.
- 4
Place the cold noodles in the center of two wide, shallow bowls.
- 5
Artistically arrange the julienned cucumber, shredded red cabbage, and perilla leaves in colorful mounds around the noodles.
- 6
Spoon the spicy dressing generously over the noodles, top with half a boiled egg and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Diners must mix everything thoroughly before eating.
