The star of bibim naengmyeon is the sauce: a sweet, spicy, tangy mixture that combines well with the chewy noodles. While egg and beef often top this dish, this version skips them for a no-fuss vegan dish. For a more satisfying meal, top it with slices of fried or grilled tofu. It's best to eat this immediately; the noodles become stiffer and harder to mix the longer they sit.
