    Do jajjang noodles come in dried form also? I’m moving from Korea to Germany and want to stock up on my favorite foods before I move.:)

      Yes, they do! :) They come fresh, frozen or dried. Dried are the least tasty, though.

    What is the best way to cook these noodles, i remember there was LOTS of foam coming up from the pan and they can be very sticky when eating.
    I use the exact same brand as on the picture.

      Boil it in a lot of water for a few minutes and drain and rinse it in cold water so that the noodles will be more chewy and not sticky.

    I bought the same brand of noodles but bought the “Korean style noodle vermicelle”. Will that work for jjajangmyun?

      I don’t think vermicelli works for this dish, because these two types of noodles are completely different…

      On the package picture it says vermicelle… I think you had the right one.
