Cook it step by step

Method

1
Marinate minced pork with generous dashes of white pepper and Sichuan pepper, if using, along with several big splashes of soy sauce and dark soy sauce, a dash of sesame oil, and fish sauce. Gently knead the mixture together and set it aside.
2
Heat a generous dash of sesame oil and a splash of vegetable or corn oil in a large pot. When sizzling, toss in the minced garlic and stir fry until fragrant (about a minute).
3
Add dried baby anchovies, if using, and stir-fry for less than a minute until fragrant.
4
Carefully add broth, stirring well. Once it comes to a boil, add bok choy and coarsely ripped seaweed. Mix well and let it come to a boil, then add Hyangshin sauce.
5
In a smaller pot, bring water to a boil and cook the noodles. Drain and set aside in a bowl.
6
Form small meatballs (about 3/4 inch) out of the pork and gently add them to the broth, mixing well.
7
When the broth comes to a boil, taste it. If you want it more diluted, add water by the half cupful until you reach your desired flavor. If you want more flavor, add small splashes of soy sauce.
8
Finally, add a tablespoon of sesame oil to the broth and toss in the scallions. Mix well, then ladle the soup over your noodles. Serve immediately.
