Samyang Kuah Susu (Samyang with Milk Broth) is an instant noodle creation that exploded in popularity because it successfully addressed Samyang’s main drawback: the overwhelming, stomach-burning heat. By adding milk, the famously spicy Samyang sauce transforms into a rich, spicy-creamy broth, similar to a fiery Korean carbonara.

Why This Recipe Went Viral

1. Extreme Heat Mitigation: Full-cream milk or evaporated milk neutralizes the capsaicin, making the Samyang spice more “friendly” while still delivering the satisfying kick that fans love.
2. Comfort Food Feel: The warm, creamy broth elevates the instant noodles to a luxurious, comforting meal, a far cry from the standard dry Samyang preparation.
3. Easy Ingredients: It relies on readily available ingredients (Samyang noodles, milk, and cheese), making it incredibly practical to prepare at home.

Recipe: Creamy Samyang Kuah Susu

Here is the recipe to create the viral and delicious creamy Samyang Milk Broth.

Main Ingredients:

• 1 pack of Samyang instant noodles (any flavor; Buldak Hot Chicken is the most popular)
• 200–250 ml full-cream UHT milk
• 2 slices of cheese (or 1 tbsp cream cheese / grated cheddar)
• 1 egg (optional)
• 1 tbsp butter/margarine

Instructions:

1. Cook the Noodles:
   • Boil the Samyang noodles until cooked. Drain and set aside. DO NOT mix the noodles with the dry seasoning or sauce yet.
2. Create the Creamy Broth:
   • Melt the butter/margarine in a pan. Add half of the Samyang sauce/paste. Sauté briefly.
   • Pour in the UHT milk. Add the cheese slices and stir until the cheese is melted and the broth has thickened slightly.
3. Combine:
   • Add the cooked noodles into the milk broth. Stir well.
   • Taste the broth. If it is not spicy or salty enough, add the remaining Samyang sauce/seasoning, cheese powder, or stock powder.
4. Add the Egg (Optional):
   • If desired, create a well in the center of the noodles, crack the egg, and cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny.
5. Serve:
   • Transfer the Samyang Kuah Susu to a bowl. Garnish with the nori or toasted sesame seeds from the Samyang packet. Serve immediately.

Samyang Kuah Susu proves how modern culinary trends always find a way to blend the convenience of instant noodles with the luxurious taste of comfort food.
