Japchae

I love my #noodles but I'm really bad at telling them apart one from the other 😅 #sweetpotato? I would have thought these were just glass noodles. Anyway, these were bigged up by @dafnelately so I ordered them, but I then found the flavour to be a bit flat. They gave me a helping of gochujang to enliven this up as little 😅 The biggest crime though? Chopping up the #evilweed into infinitesimally small pieces that made it impossible to extract everything. Life is #betterwithoutcoriander ffs 🤮

japchae noodle dish was a delightful fusion of flavors and textures. The chewy noodles paired perfectly with the colorful array of sautéed vegetables, creating a harmonious balance of tastes. The savory sesame-soy sauce tied everything together, making it a satisfying and flavorful vegan meal.

I liked how there were a lot of vegetables in it. It is not too salty too.

One year past & I’m back here again - with the same omnivore friend no less 😋 I think their #japchae has got even better! I don’t know why, but I seem to mind the absolute volume of #bellpeppers in this even less 🫑 It’s more #mushroom packed than I remember too, improving an already excellent dish 🙌 I’d still pair it with a side of #tofu both because this is otherwise lacking in protein & because they generally have a great sides 😙#throwbackthursday

QQ sweet potato noodles and mushrooms, contrasted with crunchy bell pepper, carrots, and beansprouts, all cooked in sesame oil and topped with sesame seeds. Sweet and savoury healthy dish! (Allium-free, $13) #sgkoreanfood #socialenterprise
