Ingredients
- 1 package Saengsaeng Udon
- 1 package Jjawang (black bean paste) ramen
- Red pepper flakes, to taste (optional)
- 800ml (approx. 4 cups) water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, decide on the amount of water for your Ujjameon. It’s less than what you’d use for two ramen packs, about 800ml (approximately 4 cups), which is equivalent to one and a half standard ramen servings. Once the water boils, add the noodles and soup base.
Step 2
Start by adding the Jjawang (black bean paste) ramen to the pot and boiling it over high heat for about 2 minutes. Then, add the Saengsaeng Udon noodles and continue to boil for another 2 minutes. This process allows both types of noodles to cook perfectly and blend their textures.
Step 3
While the udon noodles are cooking for those 2 minutes, pour the liquid sauce from the Saengsaeng Udon into the Jjawang ramen broth. This sauce adds a rich umami flavor characteristic of udon. Also, include the dried vegetable flakes from the Jjawang ramen for added texture and visual appeal.
Step 4
Finally, add the black bean paste powder from the Jjawang ramen package. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined. Those 2 minutes fly by as the flavors meld together, creating a deep and savory black bean udon broth. Keep stirring over high heat after adding the soup base to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Your delicious ‘Ujjameon’ is now ready! Transfer the finished Ujjameon to a serving bowl. For an extra touch, sprinkle the dried garnish from the Saengsaeng Udon package on top. If you prefer a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes according to your preference. Enjoy this hearty and satisfying meal!
