Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Boiling glass noodles in a mixture of soy sauce and brown sugar infuses the noodles with deep color and rich flavor, making them more appetizing.
  • Stir-frying boiled noodles with cooking oil for 3 minutes removes moisture and creates a protective coating, which prevents burning even the next day.
  • Chives cook quickly from residual heat, so add them at the end and mix gently before turning off the heat to avoid toughness.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make japchae that won’t burn even after sitting overnight.
  • People preparing large quantities of japchae for holidays or banquets.
  • Those looking to highlight the rich texture and savory taste of shiitake mushrooms without using meat.
