Notes

Don't overcook the noodles; they should retain a slight chewiness.

Customize toppings based on what you have on hand; kimchi, eggs, or mushrooms work wonders.

For an authentic touch, sprinkle a pinch of sugar into the sauce.

Leftover bulgogi noodles can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.

If you live alone, consider freezing individual portions for convenient meals later.
