Kongguksu is a seasonal Korean noodle dish served in a cold soy milk broth. It comprises noodles made with wheat flour and soup made from ground soybeans. It is unknown when Korean people started eating kongguksu; however, in accordance with the mention of the dish along with kkaeguksu ( 깨국수, sesame noodle soup) in Siui jeonseo, a Joseon cookbook published around the late 19th century, it is presumed to have originatedat least at early as the 19th century

  • 2 tbs mixed nuts
  • 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame seeds
  • 1/2 pound (8 ounces: 226 grams) of somyeon (thin noodles)
  • 2 ts salt
  • water and ice cubes
  • 1/2 cup cucumber strips and tomato for garnish

  3. Rinse the cooked soybeans in cold water. Drain and put into a large bowl.
  4. Scrub them with your hands to remove the skins. Then fill the bowl with cold water and the skins will float to the top. Tilt the bowl and pour out the skins and water, leaving the beans behind.
  5. Scrub the soybeans some more. Add more water, drain, and remove the skins several time until all the skins are removed.
  6. Put 1 cup of the cleaned soybeans into your blender, and put the rest into the freezer for future use. Add the mixed nuts, roasted sesame seeds, salt, and 2 1/2 cups of cold purified water to the blender and blend for 2 minutes until everything is creamy. Put it into the fridge.
  7. Boil water in a large pot and add the noodles. Stir with a wooden spoon. Close the lid and cook for a few minutes. The noodles will float when they're done.

Introduction Changdeokgung Palace was the second royal villa built following the construction of Gyeokbukgung Palace in 1405. It was the principal palace for many of the Joseon kings and is the most well-preserved of the five remaining royal Joseon palace. The palace grounds are comprised of a public palace area, a royal family residence building, and the rear garden. Known as a place of rest for the kings, the rear garden boasts a gigantic tree that is over 300 years old, a small pond, and a pavilion. The palace gained in importance starting from the time of 9th king of Joseon, Seongjong, when a number of kings began using it as a place of residence. Unfortunately, the palace was burned down by angry citizens in 1592 when the royal family fled their abode during the Japanese Invasion of Korea. Thanks to Gwanghaegun, the palace was restored in 1611. Even today, it holds a number of cultural treasures such as Injeongjeon Hall, Daejojeon Hall, Seonjeongjeon Hall, and Nakseonjae. Ch...
