100% Barley Noodles 400g – Korean High-Fiber Guksu from Pyeongchang

Chewy, Nutty Noodles Crafted from 100% Korean Barley

In many Korean mountain towns, a bowl of barley noodles is the taste of clean air, clear water and simple, honest food. 100% Barley Noodles 400g are made with domestically grown barley and a touch of Korean salt – no wheat flour – so you can experience the pure, toasty flavor of whole barley in every bite.

Produced by a 4th-generation family farm in Pyeongchang, these noodles are part of a long tradition of turning local grains into everyday comfort food. Barley is naturally rich in dietary fiber and contains a type of soluble fiber called beta-glucan, which has been widely studied for its role in supporting heart and metabolic health when enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. Here, that nutrition comes in the form of noodles that feel both rustic and modern at the same time.

From Pyeongchang Fields to Your Table

The barley used in these noodles is grown in the clean, cool climate of Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do, an area known for its highland grains. Pyeongchang Farm manages the process from cultivation to processing and packaging, focusing on clean ingredients, careful drying and consistent quality.

Because the noodles are made with 99.7% barley and 0.3% refined Korean salt, without any blended wheat flour, the flavor is noticeably different from typical wheat-based noodles. You get a gentle roasted grain aroma, a pleasantly chewy bite and a clean, refreshing finish that pairs beautifully with light broths and simple sauces.

Why These Barley Noodles Are Special

• 100% Barley-Based Noodles – Made without wheat flour, so you can enjoy the original taste and texture of Korean barley in noodle form.
• High in Fiber by Nature – Barley is known for its higher dietary fiber content compared to many other grains, including a soluble fiber called beta-glucan, which helps bring a sense of fullness and balance to meals when eaten regularly as part of a varied diet.
• 4th-Generation Pyeongchang Farm – Grown and produced by a family that has carried on local agriculture for four generations, focusing on honest, traceable production.
• Distinctively Nutty & Light – The noodles have a savory, nutty barley aroma, a pleasantly bouncy texture and a clean aftertaste that makes them ideal for both hot and cold dishes.
• Versatile for All Seasons – Enjoy them chilled with a tangy sauce in summer, in a warm broth on cold days or in mixed noodle bowls loaded with vegetables.

How to Cook 100% Barley Noodles

Because these noodles are made only with barley, they behave a little differently from wheat noodles. A bit more water, gentle stirring and proper rinsing will give you the best texture.

1. Fill a wide pot with plenty of water and bring it to a rolling boil.
2. Spread the noodles gently into the boiling water and stir well for the first few minutes so the strands do not stick together.
3. Once the noodles have softened, you can lower or turn off the heat and let them sit in the hot water for a few more minutes until they reach your preferred texture.
4. Drain through a strainer and rinse thoroughly in cold or ice water 3–4 times to remove excess starch and firm up the noodles. Avoid rubbing the noodles as you rinse; simply wash them well.
5. Serve in a light broth, as a cold mixed noodle dish with vegetables and sauce, or with your favorite toppings.

Tip: The water used to cook the barley noodles develops a mild grain aroma. Instead of discarding it, you can use it as a base for stews or soups, or allow it to cool and use it as a gentle cleaning water for dishes to help reduce detergent use.

Serving Ideas

• Cold Barley Bibim Guksu – Toss the cooked, chilled noodles with a light gochujang-based sauce, cucumber, perilla leaves and a soft-boiled egg for a refreshing meal.
• Clear Barley Noodle Soup – Add the noodles to a simple anchovy and kelp broth, season with soy sauce and garnish with scallions, toasted seaweed and sesame seeds.
