How the Trend Started
Jungkook's bulguri ramen recipe has become a sensation among BTS fans and food enthusiasts alike. The recipe was first shared by Jungkook during a live stream on the group's official YouTube channel, BangtanTV, which was later taken down.
In the video, Jungkook walks viewers through the process of making his signature dish step-by-step, explaining the ingredients and techniques he uses to create the perfect bowl of bulguri ramen. The video quickly went viral, with fans all over the world trying out the recipe for themselves and sharing their own versions on social media.
The popularity of Jungkook's Bulguri Ramen has even led to a surge in sales of the specific brand of Korean ramen he uses, as fans rush to exactly recreate the dish exactly as he does. Though pretty quickly after publishing the video, there was some controversy surrounding the bulguri recipe (see video below).
Ingredients
To make Jungkook's Bulguri ramen recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 package of Buldak spicy chicken ramen
- 1 package of Neoguri spicy seafood ramen
- 650-680 milliliters of water
- Perilla oil (optional)
- Fried egg (optional)
- Green onion for garnishing
The seasoning packets that come with the Buldak and Neoguri ramen packages must be used in this recipe, or else it won't taste right, so you'll need to buy a few of each.
Directions
- To start making the Jungkook bulguri recipe, add roughly 2 ¾ cups (650 to 680 milliliters) of water into a frying pan and bring it to a boil.
- Add the full sauce packet that comes with the Buldak ramen and half of the Neoguri soup mix packet.
- Next, add in the two noodle blocks and boil until it reaches your desired texture. Jungkook likes his noodles to be pretty al dente. If you prefer your noodles softer, you can boil them for a longer period.
- If desired, fry an egg and add it on top of the noodles.
- You can also add perilla oil to the dish for an extra flavor boost. Additionally, you can fry an egg and add it to the top of the dish for added protein and flavor.
- Finally, garnish with green onion for a pop of color and freshness.
Other Popular Ramen Hacks (Top 3)
If you're a fan of ramen, then you know that it's not just a quick and easy comfort meal, it's a lifestyle. And while there are plenty of delicious instant ramen options out there, sometimes you want to mix things up a bit and the list I’ve created will do just that.
Here are some popular ramen hacks you've never heard of, to take your instant noodle game to the next level.
1. Egg Drop Ramen
This is a simple and tasty way to add some protein to your ramen. All you need to do is crack an egg into your boiling ramen and stir it up. The egg will cook in the hot broth, creating a creamy and delicious texture. You can also add some chopped scallions or toasted sesame seeds for extra flavor.
2. Spicy Peanut Butter Ramen
Simply mix in a spoonful of peanut butter and a splash of hot sauce into your cooked ramen. The peanut butter adds a creamy texture, while the hot sauce gives it a kick. You can also add some chopped peanuts or cilantro for extra crunch and flavor, and swap the peanut butter for tahini, if there's an allergy.
3. Ramen Grilled Cheese
Yes, you read that right. Ramen grilled cheese is a thing, and it's delicious. Cook your ramen noodles as usual and then drain them well. Spread some gochujang butter on two slices of bread and place the cooked ramen noodles and a slice of cheese in between. Sprinkle on some of the ramen seasoning for a flavorful kick.
Then just grill the sandwich in a pan until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy. It's a unique Korean twist on a classic sandwich (and goes great with kimchi!).
