Euljiro 3-ga makchang grill: kimchi noodles & bean biji at Baegyeom

⭐️Baegyeom Makchang: Daegu makchang preview⭐️

Baegyeom Makchang (백염막창) is an original specialist in domestic makchang that captures the true taste of Daegu makchang!!! I got to enjoy Daegu makchang right in Euljiro ❤️ Here's my review of the meal.

How does Baegyeom Makchang age its Daegu makchang?

They say the makchang is aged with a blended salt whose saltiness is precisely adjusted‼️ That's how the sweetness and the richness of the fat come through naturally, with no gamey smell. No wonder it tasted so good.

Since it's aged with the salt-aging method, it's rich and nutty even with just salt!!! It's not makchang hiding behind heavy, punchy seasoning, so you can eat it plain and trust the flavor. The texture is so soft that even someone with braces could eat it!

How do you eat Daegu makchang: salt or makjang dip?

At Baegyeom Makchang, you dip the Daegu makchang in makjang (seasoned soybean paste). This is the basic setup they gave us: add Cheongyang chili pepper and scallion to the makjang to taste, mix well, and dip. Done! See? Easy-peasy! Dipping it in salt is also nutty perfection!!

Complimentary white soybean biji at Baegyeom Makchang

Before the Daegu makchang came out, they first brought us bean biji (soft soybean pulp stew) as a free service.

I checked the menu and the bean biji is ₩5,000, so that's a freebie, wow!

You really have to eat this before the Daegu makchang.. It's seriously good.. I can't believe they make biji this tasty.. So filling.. My stomach is now ready for drinking!!!

Grilling pre-cooked Daegu makchang with cold kimchi noodles

The Daegu makchang at Baegyeom Makchang comes out pre-grilled once. Oh my, it looks so good. I'm going crazy. I put it on the grill right away.

At first I grilled it golden on both sides, then cut it and flipped the pieces back and forth. I thought it'd be nice to eat with noodles, so I ordered kimchi noodles (cold kimchi broth noodles) on top.

This combo is absolutely killer.

The kimchi noodles were cold and the broth was amazing, perfect for this weather.. The noodles just kept slurping down. Before I knew it the Daegu makchang was nicely cooked too, so I dipped it in the sauce right away and nom nom.

Ahh.. yep, delicious. It's so tender it melts in your mouth.

Dipping it in a perilla leaf is incredible too. It was so good that we wolfed it down in 30 minutes and made a slick exit! It felt like a little trip to Daegu after work, and I had a really nice drink while eating good food ❤️

If my stomach had allowed it.. I wanted to eat more of the other menu items, but this was the limit for two! Next time I'll come with a group and wreck the menu from top to bottom. Hehe.

Does Baegyeom Makchang serve highballs?

Besides soju, Baegyeom Makchang has highballs! Having a highball is nice too. Yep yep~ (They also sell lemon, steamed rice and plenty of other things.)

The finish was perfect, too. Rinse your mouth out with a Pororo drink!! Thanks for the meal. Baegyeom Makchang, an Euljiro 3-ga favorite with friendly staff ❤️ Thumbs up‼️
