Vegan's Day

Pink Bibim Guksu

Not a whole lot of blogging time today, as I have a ton of baking to do for tomorrow's bake sale fundraiser! But here's a light lunch that I recently enjoyed:

Pink guksu (wheat noodles) with raw veggies, and soy-sesame oil sauce.

The specific name of these noodles is '수연 소면' (Sooyun Somyun) and they come dry and packaged in bundles of various colors. The pink noodles are missing from the box because, well... we ate them. What's cool is that each color is derived from natural foods. Chlorella (green), pumpkin (yellow), brown rice (brown), and red yeast rice 홍국 (pink). No artificial colorings or chemicals here!

Its like having a rainbow on your plate.

The sauce on top is the same soy-sesame oil dressing as used in this tofu dish, but I'll repost it here.

Just whisk all the following ingredients together:

  • 2 Tbs soy sauce
  • 1 Tbs finely chopped spring onions
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp dried red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp crushed toasted sesame seeds
