Samyang Foods Launches Udonsagol Gomtang Noodles: "Rich Broth with Savory Flavor"

[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-yoon] Samyang Foods announced on the 7th that it has launched a new ramen product for winter called ‘Udonsagol Gomtangmyeon,’ which can be enjoyed warm and hearty.

Unlike traditional gomtang made with only beef leg bones, Udonsagol Gomtangmyeon features a broth made from both beef leg bones and pork leg bones. Using a high-pressure extraction method, it captures the deep flavor of beef leg bones and the savory taste of pork leg bones to create a rich broth. The somyeon noodles used in the gomtang are made thinner and include domestically produced rice flour to achieve a soft yet elastic texture. The flakes are generously mixed with seasoned beef, pepper, and green onions to enhance the umami of the broth and eliminate the unique off-flavors of gomtang, further enriching its taste.

Another advantage is the quick cooking time. Udonsagol Gomtangmyeon takes about 2 minutes and 30 seconds to cook, which is roughly half the time of regular gomtang ramen that usually takes 4 to 5 minutes.

A Samyang Foods representative said, "This product was designed so that anyone can quickly and easily enjoy gomtang without the hassle of long cooking times," adding, "We plan to target the soup ramen market this winter with Udonsagol Gomtangmyeon."
