Noodle soup with fish cakes (Eomuk-guksu: 어묵국수) 

Hi! For vegan options, use fried tofu puffs as a substitute for fishcake ❤

My parents never really taught me to cook but I have been following since I first started cooking for myself as a freshman in college. Now I have a graduate degree and a professional job. I still go back to the recipes I learned then! The staples of Korean cooking have become some of the staples I go back to as an American. Chamchi-kimchi-jjigae is a dish I have gone to countless times when I just had tuna and leftover kimchi in the fridge lol. Thank you so much for sharing your culture with us, it makes the big wide world a little more accessible and closer to us from other countries

I feel like Maangchi’s like my sweet Korean next door neighbor who takes me in and teaches me recipes to Korean food and tells me about her childhood and I find comfort in that

Thank you very much for your nice comments and messages! Check out English and Korean caption! 영어, 한국어 자막있어요. By the way, RU-vid ended the community captions feature a few months ago, so my volunteer viewers can't submit their captions in their languages anymore. I do English and Korean captions by myself because I know those languages. The translated captions already made will stay on my videos. I hope someday RU-vid will have community captions again.

이렇게 한국의 가장 대중적이고 인기있는 어묵국수 소개해 주셔서 너무 뿌듯하고 감사드려요.

Maangchi is my korean cooking teacher ! No one can replace you. The way you explain things , stories behind each recipe. All are in top notch ! I always try her recipes and my parents loveee it somuch ! our goto cuisine has been become korean 🙈 .All thanks to maangchi , who always teaches her recipes and sharing this beautiful cuisine to the people like me around the globe !

Hello Maangchi & everyone here! love this recipe, not oily but healthy. I replaced the fish cake with soft thick tofu skin. It was so yummy. And the sauce I followed Maangchi recipe 100%, it was so great! Thanks Maangchi for your awsome fish cake noodle soup!👍👏

It’s rare that a person can be a national treasure but I think this one should be classified as World Treasure. We have prepared numerous of her recipes exactly as shown and they are treasures in their own right. My advice to anyone preparing her recipe is follow it exactly. Do not change a thing.

I Love how you always think about the vegetarians. Just one short sentence about an alternative and i'm Happy. Lots of love from Germany

망치언니 ^^ 댓글 남기는게 정말 오랫만인것 같아요... 늘 비디오는 보고 있었어요. 조금 늦었지만 새해 복 많이 받으세요. 오늘도 맛있는 비디오 감사해요. 한국이 더 생각나게 하는 맛있는 어묵 국수 비디오네요. 👏🏻👍 추운 겨울 건강하세요.

I love here so much her food is amazing

This is my favorite noodle dish. It brings me back so many fond memories of my mom taking me to the bunsik restaurant everytime after my afterschool class. She always ordered those noodles 😭😭😭 thank you maangchi!!

I love that you always give information on vegetarian substitutes whenever you can in a recipe. It's very thoughtful and helpful!

Maangchi, I'm vegan and your recipes are so inspiring! I've never had a problem figuring out how to replace certain things because you always use fresh, whole ingredients. You give me a reason to be creative! There is a brand called "oceans halo" that makes organic vegan and soy free 'fish' sauce and 'soy' sauce for anyone interested. I really want to try and make this dish with tofu skin or something instead of fish cakes. Looks SO GOOD😍

I haven't had fish cake noodles in years... my grandma used to make this for me when I was younger... oh do I ever miss this!! Thank you so much for sharing this, brought back my memories!! Amazing as usual😍👍💕

I’m part Korean and I must say that I make fish cake dishes once every week. You can make so many varieties of Korean fish cake dishes. It’s not expensive and feeds my family for days. My grandchildren love it!

That sauce is SOOO yummy - I've become a bit addicted and put it on lots of other dishes - cold noodles, omelets, instant ramen....It keeps well, and I think gets even better after a couple of days. Thanks Maangchi!!

For vegetarians, you could replace fish cake with inari tofu pouches! I think the texture is pretty similar. Add some seaweed to give it that oceany flavor!

DEAR GOD I'M SO HUNGRY RIGHT NOW. THE MAANGCHI EFFECT HAS TAKEN OVER ME AND I CAN'T STOP SCREAMING WITH EXCITEMENT!!

I have never cooked so many times the same dishes as I do with Maangchi’s delicious recipes. This soup is absolutely Devine..for low carb version I used Agadashi tofu instead of fish cakes ( which contain sugar and glucose), I also added thinly sliced Zucchini and carrot to the broth..thanks Maangchi, you’re the best👏👌

Might sound weird but I love how you eat the food. It makes it seem even tastier with how you take big bites and slurp the soup lol

한국에서 언제나 잘 보고 있습니다:) 많이 늦었지만, 새해 복 많이많이 받으세요~

One of the best thing about Mangchi apart from tasty organic food is - she is not messy and cares about the sanitation on top. 👍🌻🌻

가성비 최고네요 어묵은 요즘 날씨 딱좋은 아이텝이죠 어묵국수 망치님 레시피 맹신자로서 최고십니다 ^^늘 행복하세요~♥♥

*After marriage, I always have fish cakes in my freezer. Of course, Noodles! as well. Sometimes we need late night snacks. Most of Korean housewives may agree with me. Much healthier and more delicious than instant Ramen! Thank you for this happy recipe. I love Mangchi’s version!* 👍😊

오늘도 망치님 요리 잘 보았답니다 역시 최고입니다👍👍👍👍👍

My family and I love this recipe and have made it a few times already. I tried your kelp salad from another stock recipe, as well as other recipes, and it is delicious. Thank you so much for sharing these!

Maangchi, i clicked on this video so quickly! I’m serving your soybean soup tonight for my husband. My first time. Tried others soups that you showcased on your channel & been such a hit! Much respect to all your recipes! ❤️❤️❤️

와~~~~~~~ 국수에 어묵은 사랑입니다 ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 오늘 점심은 아이들과 국수해서 먹어야 겠어요 ㅋㅋ 감사합니다 ❤️❤️❤️❤️

망치이모 새해복 많이받으세요!!!!! 저는 맨날 안 만들고 이모만 보러와요 ㅎㅎ

For vegetarian version, I used to grind Tufu and made tufu balls for soups or hot pots with a lot of added spices and some starch to make the tufu sticky enough so that the balls will hold up ( if there is a good seasoning with fish or shrimp taste that is somehow vegetarian friendly that would work well.)

I’ve made a couple dozen of your recipes, and they’re all delicious, but this one is my new favorite by far! I was basking in the afterglow for hours. Mmmm, so good.

Omg I learned to cook korean food because of your videos this pandemic I love you maangchi 😍😍😍✨✨✨✨✨✨ I am so glad that you are still uploading💗💞💞

If you eat it when there's a cold wind like now, it's perfect! It looks like a good fish cake noodle. It looks so delicious. I want to eat it too.

와~~! 한국에서 나고 성장하신 분이시네요 요리로 한국을 알리시는 멋진분이세요 모든 요리를 너무 잘 하시네요 자주 들러 배워야겠어요 건강하시고 행복하세요~~~^^

I live in Korea. It's easy to make and cheap, so many people enjoy this dish in winter. Thank you for your effort~

You make us happy. God bless you, Maangchi. What else can I say?

Love you Maangchi, you remind me of my mom and her authentic Korean cooking ❤️❤️❤️

I've been subscribing Maangchi for a long time and always excited for her recipe 😭😭❤️❤️❤️

Maangchi, I try to make at least one or two Korean dishes every weekend (busy on weekdays), thank you so much for your videos which let me know how to make the authentic Korean food. Example, I love sundubu-jjigae, but before I subscribed your channel, I never made the anchovy stock and I used water to cook and put lots of gochujang. My Korean co-worker said if no broth or stock then sundubu-jjigae doesn't taste good. So I searched on youtube and found your channel and made anchovy stock to make my sundubu-jjigae, it tasted so good and I don't have to put a lot gochujang. Also I dislike bok choy and spinach so I rarely eat them, but your videos show I can cook them as delicious dishes!! Your videos just open a door of Korean food for me..Sending love

I made this and it was SO SO GOOD! Thank you!

Maangchi i have been following you for 5 years now and making ur recipes ur my fav chef🥺♥️ love from Egypt

진눈깨비오는 추운날 우리 스탭더러가 제일 좋아하는 국수 망치엄마처럼 만들어 먹여야 겠네요

Hello maam I am big fan of yours, I always follow your delicious korean recipe ,my korean husband love my cooking skill.I learned alot of cooking from your videos ..감사해요❤❤❤

I think Maangchi is the best for Korean cuisine. Look so tasty! 아 어묵 먹고 싶다 ㅠㅠ

I have been watching since 2018 and i learned a lot from her recipe. Today i made radish side dish and followed her recipe. This recipe in this video is another awesome recipe to follow.

망치아줌마-!! 2021년 더 건강하시고 우리 더 자주 만나요 :) 항상 감사합니다

I would suspect Aburaage would do a good job of mimicing the texture of the fish cake for a vegetarian option. Its simmered in broth like this one to make inarizushi, so it should hold up here too

I've nothing to do with her recipes. I'm pure vegan girl. I will never get my hands on these Korean vegetables staying in India. All the vegetables are so different from what we get here. Never saw such cute version of radish or onion existence in my life. I solely watch and subscribed to the channel for this cute and humble lady. I love how passionate she is, for cooking. And in the end how she describes it definitely shows her love for her work. Keep rocking sister ❤️ Sending lots of love and light all the way from India 🇮🇳💫

ㅎ~오늘같은 날씨에 행석기 딱 좋은 아이템입니다.늘..응원합니다.화이팅요.

"Cut it with your buit-in knife"! I luv Maangchii, her videos always make me smile, laugh and drool....

퇴근하고 자주 사먹는 음식이 어묵국수인데 너무 맛있어 보여서 정말 먹고 싶네요!

Who wants to be neighbors with Maangchi? Imagine living next to her and visiting her to learn these recipes. And also her positive vibe always amazes me. 😊

선생님의 영상이 국위선양입니다 항상 감사합니다 건강하세요~

옛날에 교회에서먹던 국수가 생각나네요 너무 맛있어 보여요~~

I miss you maangchi I used to watch your videos since 2015

I make this soup every week. Hubby likes it and so does the family,. We are empty nesters. So when I have this soup. My three sons and their families come and we eat and have so much fun. Usually I make on Saturdays. My grandkids really can’t get enough of it. They really love it as much as the adults. They love the sauce as well I make with it. Usually hit oil, am going to try your sauce. They’ll love it as well.

잔치국수만 먹었지 어묵 넣어 먹을 생각은 안해봤어요 너무 맛있을것 같아요 망치님 항상 잘보고 있습니다 영상도 너무 유익하고 재밌어요 봐도봐도 영상들이 계속 나와서 요새 너무 행복해요!!💙💙

I want to try your noodles soup recipe mam.

After seeing this today, I tried cooking for dinner and everybody liked it. Thank you Maangchi 🥰

한국음식을 전세계인들에게 알려주시는 노력 존경합니다~!^^ 오늘 페이스북에 감자요리 포스팅이 올라왔길래 망취님 채널 홍보했어요!^^

Sorry... have been real busy & craving your videos. Finallt have time for a perfect video with a perfect recipe for a perfect food for the weather and mood. Thank you!!!

You sound like my mother. I love your videos^^ 감사합니다~

For people that don't eat fish, you can use fried tofu skins or aburaage sliced lengthwise in half! If you want it to have a fishy taste, marinate it before hand in a shoyu and nori mixture as well as other seasonings you may desire!

아아~~~배고픈데...... 너무맛있겠어여!!!^^ 오뎅. 잔치국수. 둘다 너무좋아여

A warm soup on a cold day. Perfect!

Maangchi, hello! When I came to Korea, I didn't know how to cook Korean food properly. 😁 Then, I discovered your channel and blogs. Now I can say that a lot of things I know about Korean cooking came from you. Thank you, Maangchi. You're awesome and such a great inspiration. Keep it up!

Your cooking is true culinary art! For a vegetarian/vegan stock, I suggest kelp, radish, onion, green onion and nori (or gim) as a replacement for anchovies (both the smell and the flavour of gim reminds a bit of fish). As a replacement for fishcake, tofu works perfectly well. Especially fried tofu, yubu. So a vegetarian/vegan version of this deliciousness would be Yubu-Guksu, right? 😊

For vegetarian, you could sub the fish cake with tofu skins or fried tofu, yeah?

Dear Maangchi, kindly put up the English subtitles for this video. As always, great work! Keep it up. Thank you and have a good day.

I would like to see a Korean homecooked meal planning. Like how do you as a mother used to manage cooking every single day.

Your cooking is very positive to me , thank you and well appreciated

This looks so delicious Maangchi. Thank you for all of your wonderful recipes. I'll definitely be making this meal sometime this week for my husband. :)
