This is one of my favorite dishes of all time and is the inspiration for my own spicy noodle soups. Enoki mushrooms, scallions, egg, clear noodles (dak myun), and long ropes of chewy yet tender pulled beef come together in a wonderfully spicy-savory broth. Today's rendition was courtesy of the Wooram Korean restaurant found in the Edison H-Mart. Red pepper figures heavily into this hot soup in both dried and paste form, so it is not for the faint of heart, nor those prone to heartburn. In doing a little research online, there are variations in what goes in(of course), but I think that I prefer this type. Bean sprouts, mushrooms and fern bracken are possible ingredients, and the egg can be cooked separately. If you ever have the chance to eat and/or cook this soup... do it!
