my good friend just passed away and the last time we hung out i introduced her to jjajangmyeon. now i'll always think of her when i eat this. ♥️

[@rosesareparkchaeyoung7111]

May God bless her soul ❤️

She must've been pretty special, I'm sorry that to hear that your friend passed but friendship is never forgotten.

[@ayadm_1]

I love this whole chanel Aaron is an amazing guy, and his sense of humor when he say stuff like ''if you get something weird, i'm not responsible'' or when he says ''it's cold out there I don't wanna sleep on the streets'' is really what makes me keeping watching his videos

[@eirikastokes9652]

Aaron my guy, can you see the future? I literally bought a jar of chunjang this week to make jjajangmyeon! You're literally a life saver.

[@AaronandClaire]

Awesome! This is for you~!!! 😉🤣

Thank you, David! I'll tell Claire! 😁

Jjajangmyeon is Chinese food , the name itself is the exact sound of its Chinese name 炸酱面！！！Translate

[@김형석-w1s]

Actually guys, Jjajangmyeon is Korean style chinese food. The origin of food is from china but we put some caramel and made it more sweet, that's the difference. Anyway this recipe is quite nice!

My partner and I have the same rule about cooking and dishes. I really like to cook and hate to do dishes so I usually cook but if my partner cooks I will happily take the break and do the dishes. They take no time at all compared to cooking. It's great to see the two of you complement each other so well. Thank you for the videos!

[@michellechiang1683]

I love that the Korean black bean paste package says Chinese black bean paste in English. I love seeing these little connections between different cuisines, proving that good food transcends borders and cultures. ;-)

[@JH-ti3lr]

I noticed this, too. Thought it was funny that at the exact same moment he said to make sure it's Korean and not from anywhere else. Lol

[@tatecheddar]

@@JH-ti3lr I actually had to come back and watch the video because I wanted to buy this stuff off Amazon and I was confused it said Chinese in the description. Turns out it's totally Chinese and made in China despite having Korean written on the package, but it's the exact same stuff.

[@peterwilliams7335]

@@tatecheddar what you are experiencing is not unusual. What he means the beans paste in the package is made with Korean recipe or Korean style even it is made in China. Jjajangmyeon (in Korean) is evolved from Zhajiangmian (simplified Chinese: 炸酱面; traditional Chinese: 炸醬麵; pinyin: Zhá jiàng miàn), literally "fried sauce noodles", commonly translated as "noodles served with fried bean sauce" which originates from Shandong province in China and is an iconic Northern Chinese dish. There are different variations of this well known classic noodle dish throughout Chinese provinces and Japan.

[@peterlee9691]

What he meant was that it needed Korean writing on the front from Korea for this specific dish, because other Chinese black bean paste might taste different. But the noodles you can use most anything.

[@Qudths]

@@tatecheddar yeah, others have said, but while the paste itself has chinese origins, the chinese zhajiang tastes different than the korean jjiajang, which is why aaron says to get the korean 'chinese black bean paste', not the chinese 'chinese black bean paste'. the ones made in korea also taste different from the ones made in china.

[@kamikazitsunami]

When I was 2 - 1/2 years old my grandmother sat me on top of the table that was in the kitchen while she was cooking dinner and there was a jar of pickled daikon there. I was watching her cook but eating the pickles. By the time dinner was ready I ate the whole jar and was so sick. I was sick for a couple of days after that. 😂 I still love them though.

[@grahambins454]

I chuckled when you hold the ingredients like cradling a baby. Nice recipe!

[@AaronandClaire]

My precious! lol 🤣

[@increible3894]

I am from Peru living in the USA & I like this black noodles from Korea among all the other dishes. It is delicious! I had another version recipe but taking in consideration that I am from Peru & we LOVE seafood. I will make your recipe ASAP. Thank you for sharing another classic from Korea.🤤🤤

[@Breuer16]

I followed your recipe and made it! It was the most satisfying jajamen I’ve ever had (had it a few times at restaurants and I never thought they were great… though they always look good in k-dramas.) I would’ve not thought of making it except you put in chives and other veggies as well as meat so it was nutritious compared to ones at the shops. Kids loved it too! Thank you !

[@AaronandClaire]

My pleasure!!! So happy to hear that! 😁👍

[@Breuer16]

Update: My hubby just came home and had it and he said he could “eat this endlessly” and he sees now why I am crazy over Korean food 😆 Aaron you are a genius (and so funny) !! PS- I thought the frozen seafood was a great addition and way too add more protein but I also listened to Claire and put extra pork in as well 😂. Also we like to put lots of cucumbers as it goes so well with the sauce.

Hey, I cannot eat pork so can I use beef or chicken as a substitute? Will it still taste good? Please let me know

@@syedarizvi7290 course you can

Hey Aaron. You’re my go to channel now. I’m always looking for simpler ways to make Korean food. I like your choices - super simple. Keep it coming!

[@lvl37Bureaucrat]

I've made jjajangmyeon a few times now but this recipe looks like a whole other level!

[@EnderKichi]

Hello from Vegas! I keep coming back to this recipe and let me tell you something, I've basically converted my entire family into Jjajangmyeon lovers. We make jjajangmyeon at the very least once a month (sometimes more often lol) and I always come back to this video just to make sure I'm doing it right. Thank u for sharing your culture through food with all of us!

[@ctsfinest07]

My mom saw the black bean paste and bought it and had no idea what to do with it. Luckily I came across your video and made this delicious meal for us. Used cucumbers and mushrooms and cut up some pork chops and we swallowed it. Thank you for sharing this delicacy 😊

[@frazzlol]

this was my absolute favourite meal when we visited seoul, had it every opportunity after the first time trying it!

[@va1445]

The way Aaron was lovingly rocking the green onion like a baby cracked me up... and then he did it with the MSG! 😂🤣😂🤣 I have sent this video to my daughter with instruction to make this for me! Food tastes better when someone else cooks it for you. This looks beautiful and delicious.

[@IronMan3582]

The man has created his own memes on the same level as Dylan Toomey, and now they have sprung a life all their own

[@LolaRyck]

Isn’t that so true? When someone else cooks we even offer to do the dishes ( some times 😂)

[@tuttyfat]

​@@LolaRyckyou have to do the dishes when someone else cooks! Otherwise the cook won't cook as much if they have to do everything every time. Just like you relaxed while they were making the meal, they can relax after the meal while someone else cleans up. It's only fair 😅

[@pearlmack2502]

Me too! As I want to make this but with other meat not seafood. I was with her on that. Love her honesty🥰

Aaron and Claire I love you guys! I discovered you during the pandemic and im.so happy to see you guys here again, giving recipes. You are very wholesome and lovely people

[@vicwunder3062]

If I wasn't quarantined right now, I'd sooo go out to shop for ingredients to cook this! It looks sooo good!

[@eirikastokes9652]

Fun fact! I believe this style of jjajangmyeon, with the seafood and extra vegetables, is called chaengban-jjajangmyeon, or platter jjajangmyeon, and is great to make for company!

[@shawnmann753]

Aaron I always get sooooo hungry watching you cook! And then when Claire enjoys your meal I get absolutely famished!!! 🤣💖 Love you guys, keep doing what you're doing - just fabulous 👌 👏 👍

[@dk-oi2iu]

I have never made this like this. The key to this dish is the black bean sauce. I know your version is very good with the different ingredients, but it is not traditional. It seems that it may be more appealing to tourists who want to be more luxurious. This is one of my favorites in Korean cuisine. I will attempt your version in the future. Thank you for sharing.

[@donakize]

The first recipe I made following your “lead” was jjajamyeong, so I definitely follow this one cause you are never wrong. ☺️☺️

[@kosneathvuth9814]

Aaron! Thank you so much for all of these easy to follow recipes. I just moved out on my own and never really cook anything before. Thank you for making cooking easy and fun.

Watching this as I eat a thrown together noodle dish inspired by your enthusiasm! Green onion oil on hand is amazing. I’ve been adding it to everything all week. Thanks for this one!

[@cconnie3762]

omg, i made this and it is amazing!!! I love spice so i added some sereno peppers , garlic, potatoes and zuchinni. It is fantastic. Thank you so much!

Oh, Aaron, you and Claire are just the best! Thank you for all!

[@JoelsRailroadStuff]

I made this tonight from a recipe from Yeung Man Cooking (plant-based, used tofu, zucchini, and mushroom) and it is so good. I had to order the Korean black bean paste online. I’ll have to add this to my rotation.

[@CHINDARELLA]

I love the way Koreans eat, it makes me hungry 😮

[@Vivi0621]

You two have such beautiful skin!! May we please get your skincare routines??? 🙏

[@EnderKichi]

I always make Jjajangmyeon for my siblings, I introduced them to this dish and now it's a staple at my house, my sister even says it is her favorite food now. We have to have it at least once a week, even if its just the instant jjajang ramyun. I always make sure to add either pork belly or thick cut bacon, onions, and green onions to the instant version at the very least to make it even better. We also most of the time pair it with a good, fatty steak! It's just an incredible combo. Oh and my mom keeps asking me for the recipes so I just keep sending her the links to your videos 😌🤟💜

[@rahkim]

the expressions of you wive to the food were good. Good addition. Thank you will make it this weekend!

[@JamieMG]

Looks like I’m going shopping for some ingredients! That looks awesome. I love watching you two. Always makes me hungry. Thanks for sharing 👋🏼😍

[@keitilamperouge6868]

Serious here, just this week I ate authentic Jjajangmyeon (I prev ate the one in packed & I didn't like it) The authentic one is way more better. Thinking of cooking it myself and here you are being a life saver to my tummy! Thank you!!!!

[@bryannucum7896]

Thank you for sharing your recipe online. It encourage me to cook on my own instead of going out on the restaurant to eat. Keep it up!

I haven't finished watching... but this is the greatest cooking video I've ever seen.

[@crabapple225]

I've only ever tasted the instant ones (which was so unremarkable) and wondered why this dish is the favorite dish ordered/eaten by Kdrama characters in most Kdramas I've watched. Soooo...i finally tried your recipe (except that I only used pork belly and substituted all the seafood with pork belly, and used udon noodles) and WOW!!! ☺️👍👍👍 Loved iiit! Now I get the hype about jjajangmyeon in Kdramas 😆 Thank you guys!!!

[@joytiston9769]

Sir Aaron are you a professional chef? Like everything you cook is like magic. ❤️

[@arth7669]

While Cooking this hot oil spilled to my eye but after i finished cooking i think its worth it, its a very delicious recipe

[@morgantaylor2732]

This is a wonderful recipe and I've enjoyed making it a few times!!! Thank you so much for sharing it. Just one question, can you freeze the leftovers for storage? And if so how long does it last?

[@muffinmarie01]

I actually applauded when Claire managed to get that first bite of food in her mouth. If I could I would get on a plane and fly to korea so I could eat this . It looks absolutely delicious just like everything you make.

[@radiancelux]

Korean Chinese restaurants are great!

[@oygeeringh7547]

I'd did tried this dish twice in a Korean restaurant here in the US (Tampa Florida) and it was awful. I love noodles but was turned off by the bitter taste of it. Yet, Claire said it has a sweet taste, I believe I need to make it your way Aaron to enjoy it as Claire obviously did.

[@chindasivannarath4563]

Aaron, I can't wait to cook this! It looks so delicious! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful recipes! 😊
