In reply to Edna. Japchae or mungbean noodles are way different from somyeon which is made from wheat. Its bouncy chewy with a thicker mouth feel with the dangmyeon. Just make japchae instead.

I’m Johnny-come-lately to this simple and tasty recipe. But, better late than never! I’m so, so happy to have the opportunity to make this by following your recipe. I can see how using the corn syrup (or other liquid equivalent) would help to coat the noodles more with the sauce. It would bind more, than just using sugar.
When I was in the Korean market, I spelled s-o-m-y-e-o-n to my husband and said that’s what we were looking for. A very nice Korean woman heard me and as she passed by she pointed to the somyeon! It was a big help. I am not a somyeon connoisseur, but I can tell we were able to purchase a very good quality somyeon.
Chilling the noodles on ice kept the entire dish so refreshing with the crunch of an Asian pear, along with the cucumber.
Very delicious. Thank you for sharing!

Can I use the glass noodles as well. They are my favorite! I wish that I could learn more from you locally! You should have a real Korean cooking show!

I want to try this today or tomorrow. The weather is too warm and too humidity, makes me almost lose my appetite. This cold noodle will be perfect for the hot days. 🙂
