Happy Lunar New Year! What are you eating to celebrate?
Our Chicken Japchae is a Korean dish that’s served at celebrations and is a real crowd-pleaser. It’s made with sweet potato glass noodles that are naturally gluten-free and more nutrient-dense than your standard white flour noodle.
Many different vegetables are carefully seasoned and stir-fried in a slightly sweet sauce, including spinach, onion, red bell peppers, carrots, and mushrooms, then topped with strips of cooked egg and scallions. Our version of the dish uses coconut aminos so it’s soy-free.
Since the availability of japchae changes according to season, for this week we recommend the Asian Glass Noodle Salad on our West Coast menu, or our Thai-Style Rice Noodles on the East Coast and Shipped menu.
From .lee - “My mom made japchae for just about every party she hosted or potluck she attended, and it’s not only delicious and nutritious, it brings up beloved memories of time spent together over food that celebrates our culture.”
