Aha Bujang's Old-Style Jjajangmyeon

A nostalgic old-style jjajangmyeon where chunky potatoes and vegetables are simmered to create a deep vegetable broth that harmonizes with the savory flavor of chunjang.

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Instead of cutting the potatoes small, simmer them for at least 10 minutes so the savory flavor of the vegetables fully infuses the broth, creating the deep taste of old-style jjajang.
  • Do not add the starch slurry all at once; add it little by little while checking the consistency to prevent lumps and achieve a smooth sauce.
  • The finished jjajang sauce is delicious right away, but letting it cool slightly and reheating it allows the vegetable flavors to deepen, making it even tastier.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a mild, old-style jjajang with chunky potatoes at home.
  • Those who want to make a large batch of jjajang sauce with simple ingredients and no complex seasonings.
