Bibigo Bulgogi Flavoured Udon is a ready-to-cook instant udon product featuring thick, chewy Korean-style udon noodles paired with a Bulgogi-flavoured soy sauce and sesame and seaweed toppings. 'Bulgogi' refers to Korea's iconic soy-marinated style of cooking, and the sauce in this product is built on a naturally fermented soy sauce base enriched with sugar and brown sugar, delivering a sweet, savoury and deeply umami flavour. The profile is broadly comparable to a teriyaki sauce, but with the more complex, layered character of traditional Korean fermented soy sauce. One 187g pack provides a complete single-serving meal, ready in minutes by heating in boiling water or stir-frying in a pan.

Yes. Of the 14 major allergens required to be declared under EU Food Information Regulation 1169/2011, this product contains the following 3: ① Gluten — the udon noodles contain wheat flour and wheat gluten, and the sauce also contains wheat. ② Soybeans — the soy sauce component in the sauce contains defatted soy. ③ Sesame — sesame seeds are included in the toppings. Additionally, sunflower oil used in the noodle production contains soy. Regarding the seaweed topping (0.1%), potential cross-contamination with molluscs has been noted in some markets; consumers with a mollusc allergy are advised to contact the manufacturer directly. This product is not gluten-free.

Suitability for vegans or vegetarians cannot be confirmed with certainty at this time. No clearly animal-derived ingredients are visible in the ingredient list; however, the flavour enhancers E627 (disodium guanylate) and E631 (disodium inosinate) present in the sauce are frequently derived from animal or fish sources. The product also carries no official vegan or vegetarian certification. Those following a strict vegan or vegetarian diet are strongly advised to contact the manufacturer (Bibigo) directly before purchasing.

This product is not Halal certified. The soy sauce component used in the sauce contains distilled alcohol. It may therefore not be suitable for those following a Halal diet or strictly avoiding alcohol. For further clarification regarding Halal compliance, please contact the manufacturer directly.

This is a shelf-stable instant udon product that can be stored at room temperature before opening. Once opened, it should be consumed immediately. Preparation is very straightforward: ① Blanch the noodles in boiling water for 2–3 minutes, drain, add the sauce and toss well; or ② stir-fry the noodles with a small amount of water and the sauce in a pan for a slightly different texture. Adding ingredients readily available at European supermarkets — such as mushrooms, spinach, carrots or eggs — makes for an even more satisfying bowl. As the salt content is relatively high at 1.9g per 100g, we recommend not adding extra salt or soy sauce when seasoning.
