korean glass noodles (jap chae)

korean glass noodles (jap chae)
  • 1/2 pound dried Korean sweet potato noodles
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 3/4 cup thinly sliced onions
  • 2 carrots, cut into matchsticks
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 3 scallions, cut into 1-inch lengths
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced shiitake mushrooms
  • 1/2 pound spinach, well washed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds


  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in vermicelli pasta and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Drain and return to the pot; toss with 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Use kitchen shears to cut noodles into approximately 8-inch lengths. Set noodles aside.
  2. Mix soy sauce and sugar together in a bowl. Heat oil in a large saute pan or wok over high heat and swirl to coat. Add carrots and onions to the hot oil and fry until just softened, about 1 minute. Add garlic, scallions, and mushrooms and fry for 30 seconds more. Add spinach, soy sauce mixture, and cooked noodles. Fry until noodles are warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and toss with sesame seeds and remaining sesame oil.
