FAQ
Japchae is typically prepared with dangmyeon (당면, 唐麵), a type of cellophane noodles made from sweet potato starch; the noodles are mixed with assorted vegetables, meat, and mushrooms, and seasoned with soy sauce and sesame oil.
Traditional japchae is already a relatively healthy dish, with the inclusion of so many antioxidant and fiber rich vegetables: red bell pepper, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, orange bell pepper, onions, spinach, carrots.
The beauty of japchae is that you can eat it hot, room temperature, or even cold. It makes a great on-the-go lunch, as the noodles don't get soggy and there's a nice balance of vegetables and starch. This dish is also nice for potlucks, as it doesn't have to be served hot.
What does japchae taste like? A good japchae should have bouncy, slightly chewy noodles and is well balanced between sweet and savory with a hint of toasted sesame oil. The vegetables should have texture but not raw.
Legend says that the king was so enthralled by the dish that he promoted Chung to a high-ranking job and japchae earned its place as a part of Korean royal court cuisine. Like many other formally royal dishes, japchae began to gain popularity as a food for non-royals.
