Glass Noodles Jorim

🇰🇷 Korean

Low-and-slow braised glass noodles in a deeply savoured sauce — fork-tender and rich with aromatics. 60 minutes of mostly hands-off cooking.

Prep 15 min Cook 45 min Serves 4 Hard

  • Garlic2, halved and sliced
  • Ginger4 cloves, crushed
  • Bay Leaf2
  • Soy Sauce3 tbsp
  • Sesame Oil2 tbsp
  • Stock or Broth500 ml
  • Glass Noodles200 g

Optional extras

  • Perilla Leaveshandful, to finish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the glass noodles deeply in the Sesame Oil in a heavy pot — patience here pays off later.

  2. 2

    Remove it, then let the garlic and ginger soften in the drippings with the gochugaru.

  3. 3

    Return the glass noodles, add the stock and bay leaves, and bring to the gentlest simmer.

  4. 4

    Cover and braise low and slow until the glass noodles yields to a spoon, about 45 minutes.

  5. 5

    Skim the fat, reduce the sauce to a glaze, and serve with something starchy to catch every drop.

Chef's tip

Skim the fat from the surface before the final reduction for a cleaner sauce.
