This is Choi Kang-rok's signature Perilla Oil Noodles, inspired by his mastery of delicate Japanese-Korean fusion dishes on Netflix's Culinary Class Wars. Known for his technical precision and deep understanding of subtle umami flavors, Choi Kang-rok popularised this cold noodle dish. It features thin buckwheat somyeon noodles tossed in high-quality toasted perilla oil, light white soy sauce, and ground roasted sesame seeds, topped with a mountain of shredded dried seaweed (gim) for a clean, comforting taste.

Ingredients

100g thin buckwheat somyeon or wheat noodles
2 tbsp high-quality cold-pressed toasted perilla oil
1 tbsp light white soy sauce (or light soy sauce)
2 tbsp roasted sesame seeds, crushed
1/2 cup shredded roasted seaweed (gim/nori)
1 scallion, finely sliced
1/2 tsp sugar

Steps

Boil noodles in hot water according to package instructions (typically 3-4 minutes) until al dente.
Drain immediately and rinse thoroughly in ice-cold water to wash away starch and keep noodles springy.
Squeeze out all excess water from noodles and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Add perilla oil, white soy sauce, and sugar to the noodles, tossing gently to coat every strand.
Transfer noodles to a serving bowl.
Cover the top generously with crushed roasted sesame seeds and shredded seaweed.
Garnish with finely sliced scallions and serve chilled immediately.
