Japchae

Sweet potato glass noodles (dangmyeon) stir-fried with thinly sliced beef, spinach, carrot, onion, mushroom, and spring onion, dressed with soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and toasted sesame seeds. Served warm or at room temperature as a side, banchan, or main. The signature is the unique slippery-chewy texture of the sweet potato noodles set against the sweet-savoury soy-sesame dressing: gentle, balanced, distinct from the rest of the Korean canon for being neither spicy nor fermented.
