Servings: 1
Equipment
- 1 Jar
Ingredients
- 1 serving thin wheat noodles
- ice
- 1 mini cucumber
- 1 tbsp gochujang
- 1.5 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp agave syrup
- 3 tbsp vegan kimchi
- 1/2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook according to the package instructions, usually around 3 minutes for thin noodles.
- Once cooked, drain the noodles and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water to cool them down quickly. This step helps remove excess starch and makes the noodles firm and separate.
- Leave noodles in water and add a few ice cubes to let them cool down even more quickly. Drain the noodles well and set aside.
- While the noodles are cooking, you can make the gochujang sauce: mix together gochujang, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil and agave. Stir well until the sauce is smooth and all the ingredients are combined.
- Place the noodles inside the jar.
- Using a handheld slicer, carefully slice your cucumber directly into the jar. Add vegan kimchi and toasted sesame seeds.
- Close the lid and shake the jar until all the ingredients are well-combined and the noodles evenly coated in the sauce. Enjoy!
