Jajangmyeon is a popular Korean noodle dish made with thick wheat noodles topped with a savory black bean sauce. The sauce is typically made from chunjang, a fermented black soybean paste, and often includes diced pork, onions, and vegetables. It is known for its rich, slightly sweet flavor and dark color.
This dish is commonly served with sliced cucumbers on top for added crunch and freshness. Jajangmyeon is often enjoyed as a comfort food in Korea and is frequently ordered for delivery. It is also a popular choice for special occasions, such as Black Day, when singles celebrate by eating this dish.
