A practical japchae where glass noodles are colored deeply with dark soy sauce without pre-soaking, then coated with oil to prevent clumping even after time passes.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Coating the noodles with oil immediately after boiling prevents them from sticking together or clumping even as they cool.
  • Using dark soy sauce (laochou; ssangnodu) gives a deep, luxurious color like restaurant-style japchae without making it too salty.

Recommended for

  • Those who have experienced failure with japchae noodles becoming tough and soggy every time.
  • Those who want to make japchae with a deep, eye-catching color for a guest table or festive spread.
