Japchae
(Korean Sweet Potato Noodles with Beef)
“Sweet potato
noodles are, as its name suggests, made with sweet potato starch. It is
different from the transparent cellophane noodles (冬粉) which are made with mung bean
starch. Personally I felt that both have roughly the same texture and both
being tasteless on their own, they absorb flavors very well. Sweet potato
noodles are often used in a very popular Korean dish called japchae – it is
made by stir-frying sweet potato noodles with various vegetables and meat and flavored
with sesame oil, soy sauce and sugar. Just talking about it is making me drool
already!” Jasline
