Shrimp Japchae
I love cooking Korean food, especially recipes like Japchae, a dish made with sweet potato starch noodles and a dozen vegetables, some meat if you care to, and a simple seasoning blend of soy sauce, sugar, and toasted sesame oil. The dish is delicious, but like much of Korean food, it’s the attention to detail that goes into a specific preparation that I enjoy. It’s like a moving meditation, I get to take my time and be as precise as I can be.
