This Sweet Potato Glass Noodle is a must-have ingredient if you're preparing Japchae, a festive Korean cuisine that is simply delicious. 



Japchae is actually one of my favorite Korean dishes, and homemade Japchae just tastes so much better than a restaurant's. A lot of restaurants serve Japchae as a side dish, but I believe it deserves to be a main dish. 



Anyway, I make sure to keep my pantry stocked with these noodles. 

I love how the noodles are pre-portioned and individually packaged, so I don't have to second-guess how much I'm cooking. Just like pasta noodles, it's impossible to measure a correct serving size, so if I buy a bulk glass noodle in one bag, I end up making Japchae for like, 12 people. 



These noodles are also gluten-free; however, they are not low in calories or low carbs. If you're on a diet, you should probably stay away from these noodles, haha. 



The cooking instructions are written on the side of each packaging. You boil the noodles for about 6 minutes or until the noodles turn transparent - like glass! 



I make sure to add toasted sesame oil, another STAPLE in Korean cuisine, and it's looking good! 



Yum! 

Japchae's ready!
