- Eunjo Park, the executive chef at Momofuku's Kawi makes Kalguksu, a Korean soup with chewy, knife-cut potato noodles and a slightly sweet, spicy broth. She starts by making the noodle dough, which consists of flour, potato, and water. Eunjo then makes an aromatic oil infused with garlic, ginger and scallions, which she uses to cook the chicken. Using mirin to deglaze the pan, Eunjo brings the broth together with chicken stock and kelp before adding in the noodles and topping each bowl with chili crunch, garlic, nori and vinegar.

I love that you guys don't colour correct these Quarantine Cooking videos to make the food look sexier; It makes sense because no amount of colour correction is gonna make these soups and stews sexier than they already are. This is the best type of food already.
BRING HER BACK
@James i think they closed her restaurant down cause faux-VID
@@yayo4nasal she didn't go anywhere and covid is real... They just meant they want to see her in more videos on the channel
@@yayo4nasal i meant the videos
@@yayo4nasal lol faux-vid. Wait till you get it then you'll know it's real
Sorry to be so off topic but does someone know a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot the account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me
David Chang, you need to pay your staff better. She needs a raise if that's her kitchen and she is executive chef.
my first thought as well, is it NYC?
@@cheesejadeitekiwifox Thats a good point about saving, maybe she's trying to be super frugal and save for a house or retirement or something similarly large.
@@cheesejadeitekiwifox this apartment isnt 3k a month lmao
@@Alex-ii9sp "this apartment isnt 3k a month lmao" And just how did you determine the cost of her rent without any additional information?
@@cheesejadeitekiwifox I doubt this apt is 3k - probably 2-2.5k, especially with current pricing
She's speaks directly to me with the size of that bowl looks so good
When she peels the hot potato... seasoned hands chef. After a while cooking for a living you’re able to pull a plate out of the salamander without your towel. It’s still hot, but you just ignore it.
I used to work with these older dudes who used their bare hands to pull food out of the deep fryer
I love she’s left handed ! Me too lady ! Knife skills 🔪💯
She was a school mate in culinary school! She's come a long way. It's been 15 years Eunjo. I wish I kept my school pictures with her.
15 years? Wow, she doesn't look much older than 20!

"It's really good!" I believe her! And I agree with the comment about color correction. This was not the most attractive dish. But even her description of what made it "really good" made complete sense to me. And I love the tip about crushing the toasted sesame seeds before adding them to the dish👍
When i first tried it, it was awesome! I kind of like spicy stuff so I just added Kimchi to the soup
Girlfriend, thank you!! You made everything so simple. I understand preparation is a key element, however, it did not take all day for you to show me this recipe, especially so that I can eat it and enjoy it. You don't have to worry about deflating someone's inspiration that's for sure. I am shaking my head, most of the stuff I have supply of, even the stove. Because of your instruction, I am now better equipped with the know how to keep trying. I need more of your instruction and will be watching. Thank you. Sincerely a Black woman 👠👠.
More Eunjo please!!! She's incredibly talented!
I think we can all agree we want to see waaaayy more of this Chef!
She’s already married
As a Korean-American, I can say that the stuff that I grew up with is not nearly as layered with flavor as this. Maybe it was, but might also be because I never wanted to eat this when I was younger, so there may be some psychosomatic reference points for the dish.
For context, I should disclose that when I was very little, I cried when I had this dish the first few times because my mom said I literally would look for sharp knives in my soup because of the translation ("kahl=knife" "guk-soo=noodle") and I didn't understand why anybody would put that in their soup.
Obviously, this looks amazing. I can now report that there are, in fact, no knives in this soup as a 35 year old human of the earth. Slurp away folks!
Many Korean dishes aren't "balanced". The banchan provides the balance.
Tteok mandu-guk is a very heavy dish, but spicy or vinegar based banchan provides the contrasting flavors.
@@HKim0072 Yea, I totally get that. I wasn't stating that they weren't balanced just that I've only ever had this dish when the broth was seasoned with salt and pepper and garnishes consisted of green onions and maybe some crushed up seaweed. This version being demonstrated in the video has so many additional things going on is what I was pointing out.
I kind of like how this dish is usually made. Really clean, simple, chicken flavor. The focal points are the fresh noodles and uncomplicated broth.
Knife Noodles still got knives in them bruh. Your iron stomach just got used to it.
@@andrewkong3154 Dude - I'll try to explain better. Many Korean dishes are unbalanced in the eyes of chefs. Very one noted without contrasting flavors. My point is that having banchan balances out Korean dishes.
She's basically taking banchan flavors and adding it to the main dish.
Just picks up a 12 minute baked potato form the microwave bare handed and peels the skin off it like nothing... Then reaches into a pot of chicken while it's cooking to seperate it from sticking together! lol you can tell this woman is a true master ! Looks fantastic!
I just made this for my chatty Korean mother tonight. She didn’t say much and just ate it up. Thanks for the simple recipe. I did buy the Momofuku chili oil. It is pretty bomb too
This is the best noodle soup I've ever eaten. I adjusted some ingredients based off of what I had, but it still turned out awesome. Putting in the seaweed makes a huge difference, and I garnished with tamari and hot sauce.
Thank you so much for the recipe xx
Imagine if momofuku or the restaurant industry in general paid well enough to live more comfortably. Seeing her tiny apartment thinking about the contrast of where David Chang probably lives.
it's cool to see how actually tiny most NYC apartments are
I love her! Please bring her back for more korean dishes recipes!
I love she embraces the microwave as a cooking tool!
the promotion looks good on her! Congrats Eunjo!
Been making this almost once a week with my korean gf! I can't stop making it !!!
Is this Eunjo Park's first video appearance? Been hearing David raving about her on his podcast.
@@cheesejadeitekiwifox That closure was weird to me. The real estate owners of Hudson Yards have large stakes in Momofuku. Weird that they'd lose one of their few remaining flagships in Hudson Yards when they have their own money in it.
@@cheesejadeitekiwifox Oh yes, Hudson Yards really screwed itself, and I'm pretty gleeful about that, but I was just saying that the one anchor tenant (other than Equinox) that they part own should have been easier to keep there versus all the other stuff. Jose Andres' place, too, which I think is still open.
The SSS restaurant has been there for over a year, I think they're just converting it to a Ssam bar (because the original Ssam bar closed), and she's taking over as chef.
i made this, and it is absolutely amazing. i used korean soup soy sauce instead of soy sauce and fish sauce, swapped out white vinegar for apple vinegar, and used my boyfriend's roommates moms homemade chili oil. i also used seasoned and roasted seaweed that you get in those mini packs. so flavorful, and the vinegar balances out the saltiness. its nice because i didn't have to make the noodles, the asian store near me already carries fresh kalguksu.
So it's been about 12 minutes... *smooshes molten lava potato with bare hands*
Kalguksu when I was in seoul was one of my favorite dishes...
omg 저 은조솊 인스타 팔로우 예전부터 했었는데 먼치스에 나오시다니이이이이 너무 좋아요❤️
소이빈페이스트라 안하고 된장이라 하셔서 정말 좋은것 같아요
Ms. Park, btw, can you please do a video on the required basic/foundational ingredients/staples to keep in one's pantry, for Asian recipes?
Ms. Park, Thank you. I tried the recipe and it came out very well for an armature. I am excited about your next video.
Super accessible recipe and it looks delicious! Perfect for home cooking!
Using the branded chili crisp for the video, but you KNOW all the momo cooks are really using Lao Gan Ma at home.
Omg. Did you see the collagen in the chicken stock!? So good. Never skim that out. It's very good for you.
handling a potato right out of the microwave...RESPECT
Man David Chang got really lucky. Momofuko was so hyped and his signature pork bun was so ordinary but he became the hip avant- garden chef.. and the rest is history.
I am Korean i Iove her recipes and love her so much so much 🌸🌸🌸
Very untraditional broth ingredients, but that’s what Momo is known for right? This definitely is not what you find at most Korean restaurants nor at auntie’s house, but still looks delicious. I diggin the extra flavors!
Agree. Except the noodle itself, nothing is even close to the actual knife cut noodle. This can be delicious as is but don't expect real Korean taste.
@@Strawberrypiecream Lol imagine gatekeeping a Korean person who worked at a Korean restaurant.
Thank you for the recipe! This inspired me to learn how to cook 😊
Highly recommend listening to her episode on the dave chang show podcast. Shes a gangsta. She used to work at cafe boulud (just like DC)
I bet she's so mad that no one told her that piece of hair fell out of her bun.
that piece of hair distracted me also😉but her nice soup made up for that distraction 🤗👏with love all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦❤
This is 100% better than the pot of grease you get from Xian Restaurant.
And a lefty. Girl after my heart!
This looks tasty
Is she left handed? I’m in love!
I'm left-handed too, bro. Lemme get a lil sip of that love you got going on there, buddy.
What makes kalguksu different from other chicken noodle soups is the chewiness of the thick noodles. Makes eating noodle soup more fun
Actually most kalguksu are anchovy based broth. Chicken broth is probably just so the westerners like it
OMG 😳 She looks just like Jaehyun from NCT 127!!! 😮😍❤️
Looks great
mouth watering
Eunjo should be a K popstar... js not simping or anything.
칼국수 굿
Man loooks sooo good need to try this!
Was good & informative 👍🏻
Give credit to the building super who let you video this segment in the maintenance closet.
That looks amazing!
OMG. She's got one of those Korean cheap pots on the stove in the background.
Hell yeah. Ramen out of those are the best! A little bar in Ktown LA used to serve menu items out of them for decoration.
Wow awesome!!!
i believe kalguksu has the potential to be up there along with Ramen and Pho, but Koreans aren't marketing it well like the Japanese do with Ramen and Vietnamese with Pho.
TOTALLY. My first kalguksu was mind blowing.
great video Chef, nice spoon!
i thought it was a pizza from the thumbnail lol
Missed working with you chef jo..
I am a fan of Jo
Eunjo, Saranghaeyo!!!
Great recipe, well-presented. When printing out recipe, end and beginning of separate pages are chopped off....
Fantastic!! 🇨🇦🙋🌻✌🙏
Cool!
Sooooooo cute!
That looks fucking delicious.
Only thing missing is serve noodle with kimchi. 😃
Whats the difference between kalguksu and janchi guksu?
Munchies lover hit like butter 👍
Her boss is David Chang? Must be fun..
Looks delicious..
This soup looks freaking delicious, Korean food is addictive
The girl looks more delicious than the soup
That apartments...... wow
Diggin the reverse-alfalfa hairstyle.
Is munchies also vice? I didn't know that!
Aka Korean chicken noodle soup. Yum!
Lol actually Anchovy borth kalguksu is more popular than chicken
droolinggg
i think i just fall in love
Yess!!!!
What is that music
At 7:00 you see some serious burns, wow. Yummy soup tho
You need to ask david Chang for a raise
so cool!
So executive chefs has to live in old studio apartments ? Not a good look , NY
Some people choose to live minimally or perhaps she is saving her money.
I'd rather live in this apartment if located in a cool NYC neighborhood than a McMansion in Texas--or wherever.
Can we use ordinary potato noodles? The chapchae noodles?
🔥
Did she wash the cutting board? She used it to cut the chicken!!
Yes its a soup but its more about the handmade noodles and kalguksu is alot more flavour full with an anchovy, seafood broth than the chicken broth. It makes the noodles shine more than the chicken. As an executive chef she should have known that.
Anyone know the brand of the knife?
Cute chef!
Man thats a day worth of dishes for a family of 6 for one bowl of soup, looks absolutely delicious tho.
Yep,rather order korean food through delivery🤣
된장!!!!!!
Rather than using a disposable plastic glove you could wash your hands after touching the chicken.
It helps reduce plastic pollution.
That's not a plactic glove
If the potato's don't feel cooked after 12 min just let them sit they will soften up also
did she just threw an entire handful of handmade noodles ?!
Straya!!
Yuuurrr
is this a chili crunch ad?
Kalguksu > Japanese Ramen. IMHO (im not a foodie, but have tried both many times)
Whats the brand of that counter top fire
Likely a Korean brand.
They sell various brands of that type of stove in Korean supermarkets and other Asian supermarkets. Found an article just now that describes that type of stove as butane www.doityourselfrv.com/butane-stoves/ and describes Korea as a place where compact butane stoves are popular - you'll find them sold everywhere in Korea including 7-elevens. If you don't live near an Asian market like 99ranch.com you could find something similar on Amazon or other retailer. the stove she is using shows a label with japanese writing.
man, she's got really long and elegant fingers. i wouldnt be surprised if she's really good at playing the piano.
