Chewy Angel Hair Pasta with Soy Sauce Dressing
Angel Hair Pasta Recipe / Angel Hair Soy Sauce Noodles
We’ve transformed angel hair pasta (cheon사채) into a delightful soy sauce noodle dish. Watch from 01:40 for the angel hair transformation process.
Ingredients- Angel hair pasta (cheon사채) 150g
- Cucumber 1/4
- Sugar 2 Tbsp
- Minced garlic 1/2 Tbsp
- Soy sauce 2 Tbsp
- Vinegar 1 Tbsp
- Sesame oil 1 Tbsp
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the special process to make the angel hair pasta chewy, like glass noodles. Fill a pot with plenty of water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, add 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Baking soda helps to achieve that desirable chewy texture in the angel hair pasta.
Step 2
When the water is rapidly boiling, add 150g of angel hair pasta to be transformed and boil for about 5 minutes. Gently stir occasionally to prevent the pasta strands from sticking together. After 5 minutes, the angel hair pasta should become translucent and develop a wonderfully chewy texture.
Step 3
Once the angel hair pasta is cooked, immediately rinse it under cold water. This step cools it down and further enhances its chewy texture. Rinse thoroughly under cold water and gently squeeze out any excess water.
Step 4
Before mixing all the ingredients, arrange the transformed angel hair pasta in your serving bowl. This chewy pasta will be the star of your dish.
Step 5
Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Then, using a peeler or knife, carefully peel the outer skin (this is called ‘돌려 깎기’ and helps remove any bitterness). Slice the cucumber into thin julienne strips. This preparation not only reduces any potential bitterness but also makes the cucumber a delightful addition to the noodle texture.
Step 6
Place the transformed angel hair pasta into the prepared serving bowl. We will now add the dressing ingredients and the remaining components.
Step 7
To the angel hair pasta, add 2 Tbsp of sugar, 1/2 Tbsp of minced garlic, 2 Tbsp of soy sauce, 1 Tbsp of vinegar, and 1 Tbsp of sesame oil. Add the julienned cucumber as well. Gently mix everything together by hand, ensuring all ingredients are well combined with the dressing. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated, and your delicious Angel Hair Soy Sauce Noodles will be ready to enjoy!
