Based on this source from 2017, there are 23 Samyang products which have been certified by KMF, though we note that this number may have changed since then, especially taking into account limited-edition flavours that come and go. We've compiled a list based on what we've found in supermarkets locally and also online (listed out below!). Do note that even though specific products may have halal versions, not all of the noodles produced for that product line may be halal-certified (as only those produced in designated production lines of their Wonju factory are certified). Carbo is a variety celebrating the billionth serving of Buldak Bokkeummyun sold. At first, the thought crossed my mind that Carbo was referring to lower carbs; a health conscious version perhaps. This is actually short for carbonara. I asked the company about whether is contained pork or was HALAL. As of January 8th, 2018, it is not HALAL certified but will be soon. Also, neither this nor any of the Buldak Bokkeummyun range contains pork or pork products as mentioned by the company. Full review here These come in three varieties – original, 2x, and Carbo. They’re great – especially for doing up wings. I remember getting samples of these from Samyang and trying them with pizza – works very well! I don’t think it was nearly as spicy as their noodle counterparts, but quite good. Correct Preparation Of Samyang Foods Buldak Bokkeummyun SAMYANG FOODS> We strongly believed the success of “Buldak Bokkuemmyun” because there had been no this kind of stirred type of instant noodles until 2012. We thought many people who like spicy tastes would be addicted to that tastes as our product is characterized in deliciously spicy. SAMYANG FOODS> Actually, Koreans like spicy tastes so we thought there’s customer needs of spicy ramen so we thought many people like it. However, overseas consumers can’t eat spicy food well, thus we were a little worried about it. Despite of that problem, overseas people also like Buldak. In my opinion, they seem to enjoy the challenge and relieve their stress when they try it.

The initial Buldak is currently 4,400 SHU, so this should be about 13,200 SHU logically (4400*3). A very spicy one. Review and mukbang here. Instant noodles has always been a guilty pleasure of mine, and so I’d jump at any opportunity to give new flavours a try. Samyang has too, been a go-to for me whenever I need to satisfy my spicy noodle cravings but I’ll stand by the Carbonara and Jja Jang Myeon as two of my favourites from the brand. Curry Buldak : In curry Bulkdak, taste of curry and original Buldak have been well balanced. However, it is only for foreign consumers, not be sold in Korea yet.The second tomato variety of the range. A tasty one — not exceedingly spicy. Review here. Samyang Foods Challenge Buldak Bibimmyun / SHU 12,000 This flavor has a Scoville index of 12,000, making it one of Samyang’s hottest flavors in the Buldak lineup. What I particularly love about the Carbonara is the subtle creamy flavour that’s balanced out by the spicy sauce. Though it definitely didn’t taste like the actual egg-based Carbonara sauce, it was pretty special in its own way. I mean, if cream and chilli isn’t the best of both worlds, I don’t know what is. Topokki (tteokbokki) is a tube of rice flour which is chewy and wonderful. These bowls are these tubes along with Buldak sauce, as seen here. I would say that the burn crept in slowly but exponentially, and before I knew it, it worked up quite a fire in my mouth. And this is coming from a person who chooses da la (very spicy) when she eats Mala hotpots, so proceed with caution for this one.

TRR> Can you detail exactly how you figure out the SHU a little more? Is spectrometry used? What is the standard formula you mentioned?As a result of its efforts to solve the country’s food shortage, Samyang Foods Co., Ltd., which developed Korea’s first ramen in 1963, was founded. Korea has grown to be a major producer of ramen, which is the second most popular food there. The Korean Spicy Noodles brand, Samyang, has taken Asia by storm and we’ve decided to ride the Hallyu wave too. We fished out one of each flavour, including the latest addition to the spicy noodle family – Jja Jang Myeon, or Zha Jiang Mian as we know it in Mandarin.
