Pulmuone Launches First Meal Kit in Refrigerated Noodle Category

Two Types of Naengmyeon: Mul Naengmyeon and Hoe Naengmyeon

Pulmuone Foods announced on the 15th that it will launch the first-ever "meal kit" in the refrigerated noodles category.

This summer, Pulmuone plans to target the refrigerated noodles market with three categories: naengmyeon, special summer noodles (bibim-myeon, jjol-myeon, buckwheat soba, cold udon, etc.), and health-oriented light noodles.

In the naengmyeon category, Pulmuone is releasing a meal kit for the first time since starting its fresh noodle business. While continuously upgrading noodles and sauces to achieve restaurant-quality, the company developed a meal kit product that includes toppings for completeness.

Pulmuone's naengmyeon meal kit greatly enhances storage convenience. While meal kits typically have a shelf life of about a week, Pulmuone extended the shelf life of the finished meal kit product to 45 days by including ultra-pickled vegetables and retort-sterilized boiled eggs.

The new naengmyeon meal kit is offered in two types (mul-naengmyeon, hoe-naengmyeon). It contains all necessary ingredients such as ultra-pickled young cabbage, seasoned pollock sashimi, and boiled eggs. According to the company, by adding broth and seasoning to noodles made with Pulmuone’s noodle-making expertise, consumers can enjoy restaurant-level naengmyeon at home.

The crunchy young cabbage mul-naengmyeon meal kit combines clear dongchimi broth and mild beef brisket broth harmoniously, allowing you to enjoy a refreshing umami flavor. It is also good to add the included mustard sauce according to your preference.

The spicy seasoned pollock sashimi hoe-naengmyeon meal kit is a bibim-naengmyeon richly composed with seasoned pollock sashimi that could previously only be enjoyed at specialty restaurants. Instead of commonly used buckwheat, the noodles are made from sweet potato starch, providing the chewy and crunchy texture unique to Hamheung-style naengmyeon.
