4 cups bean sprouts
4 cups napa cabbage, roughly chopped
10 dried shiitake mushrooms, stems removed

Steps:

  • Soak the shiitake mushrooms for at least 2 hours in lukewarm water. Wring the water out of the mushrooms, and slice them thinly (approx 1/8 inch thick). Set aside.

  • Add in the napa cabbage, bean sprouts, and the rest of the oyster sauce, and stir fry for 5 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Boil the dangmyeon noodles for 7-10 minutes.
  • Drain the water, and rinse the noodles in cold water.
  • Set aside.
  • Create the sauce for noodles by combining the vinegar, sugar, dark soy sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a bowl and mix until the sugar dissolves.
  • In a large serving bowl, combine the noodles with the sauce and ensure that it is evenly distributed.
  • Add in the stir fried veggies, fresh cilantro, and toasted sesame seeds.
  • Mix well and serve.
  • This dish can be enjoyed hot or cold.
