Milmyeon (Korean: 밀면, meaning "wheat noodle") is a noodle dish that originated in Busan, South Korea. Milmyeon is a variant of the North Korean noodle dish naengmyeon. It consists of wheat noodles in a cold meat broth (mul milmyeon) or a spicy sauce (bibim milmyeon), and topped with vegetables and garnish.
Naengmyeon is a North Korean dish that is based on noodles containing
somyeon noodles with wheat flour provided by American food rations.[1] The new version of the dish was called milmyeon, meaning "wheat noodle".[1] Milmyeon has become a specialty of Busan.[2]
The basic recipe includes noodles made from wheat flour and
medicinal herbs.[3]
Milyeon comes in two basic varieties. In Mul milmyeon (물밀면; lit. water milmyeon), the noodles are served in an icy-cold broth and topped with pickled garnishes.[1] Bibim milmyeon is made with a spicy, gochujang-based paste.[4]
