Pulmuone
This 'Roasting Jjajangmyeon' advertised by the popular Korean mukbang YouTuber 'Ibsajjunhaetnim' uses dry noodles. The characteristic of Jjajang ramen is its high calories. Because it uses dry noodles, this ramen reduces the burden on calories. Usually, Jjajang ramen has a different taste than Jjajangmyeon, but this Roasting Jjajangmyeon has a taste similar to real Jjajangmyeon. It seems that dry noodles played a significant role in creating a taste similar to Jjajangmyeon.

There is a Jjajang version of Tteumsae Ramen, which we introduced in the previous article about 'Recommendations for Spicy Korean Ramen'. It is 'Tteumsae Ramen Spicy Jjajang'. In Korea, Jjajangmyeon is sometimes sprinkled with chili powder according to taste. This is because it can reduce the richness of Jjajangmyeon with spiciness. You might think of Tteumsae Ramen Spicy Jjajang as Jjajangmyeon mixed with chili powder. It comes with liquid soup, so you can boil it first and mix the liquid soup with the noodles after discarding the water. The manufacturer recommends that you warm the liquid soup and mix it for a more delicious taste. If you want a spicy Jjajang ramen, there is nothing better than this.
