Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Pour the soy sauce around the hot wok edge, not over the ingredients, and let it sizzle briefly to bring out smoky flavor and umami.
  • Blanch the seafood for only 15-30 seconds and do not overcook it in the sauce to keep it tender.
  • Using roasted chunjang (black bean paste) gives a rich, non-bitter jajang flavor without the need for long frying.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a hearty old-fashioned jajangmyeon with both pork and seafood.
  • Those who want to use both yellow soybean paste and chunjang for a deep Chinese restaurant-style flavor.
  • Those looking for a noodle dish to share generously with family or friends.
