Cooking tips

  • Since the water isn't discarded and is instead reduced, the rich oil and starch from the noodles remain, resulting in a much smoother jajang sauce.
  • Avoid high heat—otherwise, the water may evaporate before the noodles are fully cooked. Keep the heat at medium throughout the entire process.
  • The small amount of red pepper powder added at the end helps balance the richness of the jajang sauce, giving it a cleaner finish.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a quick and easy jajang ramen without the tedious step of pouring out the cooking water.
  • Home cooks looking to savor the deep umami flavor of authentic Chinese restaurant jajang and the crisp texture of fresh onion.
