Cooking tips
- When stir-frying the pork, ensure all moisture and gamey odors are completely evaporated, leaving only clear oil, to achieve a deep savory flavor.
- Using tenmenjang, which lacks the astringency of chunjang, allows for the authentic, soft, and savory taste of traditional Chinese jjajangmyeon.
- Seasoning the boiled noodles with a small amount of broth, soy sauce, and sesame oil prevents them from being bland and ensures harmony with the sauce.
Recommended for

- Those who want to learn Chef Choi Kang-rok's detailed cooking tips and noodle seasoning secrets.
