Finally, we add in the gochujang, salt, and pepper. I added a full 3 Tablespoons of gochujang because I like spicy stuff, but you can dial it down to 1 or 2 Tablespoons. Start with the smaller amount, then taste the sauce and adjust. It’s easier to add than to remove an ingredient once it’s in there. If you want to omit the gochujang for a plain Carbonara Tteokbokki, you can do that too, but personally I don’t recommend this. In my opinion, the addition of the Korean red pepper paste helps keep the richness of the dish balanced. After boiling the noodles, we let it sit in an ice bath for about three to four minutes, waiting for it to drop to the ideal temperature. I also noticed that the noodles were thinner than usual, but I wonder why? If anything, it serves as an excellent base for innovative dishes since it has a neutral taste. Neutral yet hell-like spicy. Carbonara is not a very common instant ramen flavor in the ramen world, so when Samyang released this Cream Carbonara ramen, was so excited to try this one out because it has that satisfyingly spicy buldak flavor and heat, but this time it has an added creaminess and milky savoriness to it from the carbonara. Wonder what’ll stand out the most, the fiery buldak flavor, or the creamy carbonara taste? Let’s find out. The texture of the noodles had the right amount of springiness (if you cook it well), which made each bite a joy to take. This definitely made it to one of my top favourites too.

Ta-da! We’re here to talk about the dreaded x2 Nuclear Fire Noodles—the challenge that took the world by storm. The Samyang variant made grown men cry. And it really does live to expectations. It doesn’t have much flavor except for spiciness.If you’re looking for food that will take you on a messed up roller coaster ride, then you might want to give this a whirl. Eating the Ice Type Buldak ramen is a novelty since it’s a “ cool ramen”.Cold noodles have been enjoyed in South Korea for decades, and it’s supposed to be perfect for warmer days. However, this Samyang variant is pretentious and not really meant to cool anyone off. We first cooked the stew base and threw in the noodles when the soup started to bubble. Its fragrance wafted through the air as we waited eagerly in anticipation to get our first taste.

For the tteok, I used those frozen ones found in all the Korean marts. I don’t have a preferred brand since they all seem to be the same. One thing you need to remember when using frozen tteok is that you need to soak them in water for at least 20 minutes before use. This removes any excess starch and pre-softens your tteok in preparation for cooking. A softened tteok cooks more easily and absorbs more flavor, so don’t skip this step. You don’t need to thaw the frozen tteok. Just soak them straight from the freezer for at least 20 minutes, then drain the water when ready to cook. A lot of people actually eat this with a hard-boiled egg to make it more “authentic”. You can do the same, and add a few more slices of nori. I also prefer cooling it down before I eat it, rather than taking it on while it’s still piping hot.Once you’re satisfied with the sauce, take it off the heat and place in a serving dish. You can top with more grated cheese but I only like to top mine with some chives.

This Spicy Carbonara Tteokbokki recipe is truly uncomplicated. All you need to do is a bit of stirring around, so the thing that requires a bit more thought is perhaps the add-in’s. The original recipe at the Miss Happy Belly blog uses a lot of the add-in’s you might find in an actual carbonara dish. Bacon for one. She also added in mushrooms, which I would recommend for more flavor. Since I didn’t have any at this time, I just skipped it and added more salt and pepper to flavor the dish. Once your noodles are ready, strain them and then add them into your frying pan with your sauce and bacon. Give it all a good mix until everything is well combined. As you can imagine, this is far from an authentic carbonara...but it's just as good (in my spice-obsessed opinion). As I said above, this samyang carbonara takes less than 10 minutes to make and only requires a handful of ingredients. Now that we’ve talked about the prep work, it’s time to get cooking! We start by melting the butter in a pan over medium heat, and then stir-frying the garlic in it until fragrant. Then we add in the bacon (or in my case, the sausages) and sauté until the meat starts to brown. We want the butter to become flavored by that garlic and sausage so it will permeate the sauce later on. In goes the bell peppers, and we cook it a couple of minutes to let the flavors intensify. (The mushroom is supposed to go in with the bell peppers.)A Comprehensive Food CompanySamyang Foods, Inc. uses natural ingredients with high quality so as to provide food with high quality and differentiated taste along with excellent food with traditional Korean flavors. Flavor-wise this is amazing, especially because of the five-spice. But it can be traumatizing to some especially if you underestimate its effects. Mala Buldak ramen noodles is originally referred to as the x4 fire noodles, the Mala Buldak ramen gained popularity because of the eating challenge.
