Jeongin Myeonok 정인면옥

Clear, pale-brown beef broth leads the Pyongyang naengmyeon, with the beef aroma arriving before any salt or vinegar. The buckwheat noodles have a slightly rough surface and snap easily, and late in the bowl a spoonful of chili powder turns the same broth red and spicy. Arongsatae suyuk, boiled beef shank, is lean with springy sinew.
