Cooking tips

  • Slice the pan-fried tofu only after it has completely cooled to prevent it from crumbling and to keep neat shapes.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables briefly before they release moisture, then immediately add the tofu and seasoning to keep them crunchy.
  • When reducing the sauce, stir quickly over high heat so the seasoning coats evenly and develops a nice nutty aroma.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a healthy and clean japchae without glass noodles.
  • Those who want to cook tofu into a unique and delicious side dish.
