Buckwheat noodles

For dried noodles, soak in lukewarm water until softened.

You can get packaged soft buckwheat noodles at most Korean stores. If you get the frozen, thaw them under running cold water. If they are refrigerated, rinse them in cold water.

Both kinds - Bring a pot of water to a full boil, add the noodles, and boil for two to five minutes (until desired tenderness - taste test after two minutes).

Remove from heat, drain, and rinse in cold water.

Eggs

Hard boil the eggs, peel, and cut in half from top to bottom.

Carrot

Slice, shred or julienne in thin stirps.

Rinse in cold water, immerse in boiling water for one to two minutes, rinse again in cold water.

Radish and Cucumber

Sauce

Mix the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl and let stand 15 minutes.

Final Mix

Put everything except egg in a large bowl and mix well.
