Notes
- You can use any pasta that you and your family love. We prefer this with a long noodle; the slippery sauce is perfect for slurping!
- I use salted butter but use what you have. And yes, I know there is a lot of butter, but these are buttered noodles, and butter makes everything taste better!!
- This recipe has a lot of garlic, even by my standards! But feel free to change the amount; never let anyone dictate how much garlic you use! Measure garlic with your heart!
- Gochujang paste is a Korean chili paste made from fermented soybeans, glutinous rice, and red chili. The fermentation process gives it a slight funkiness, which, combined with the sweetness from the rice and the heat from the chilies, creates a complex paste that's packed with umami. It is readily available in larger grocery stores, and you'll find it in the Asian aisle. You can also buy it online.
- You can use apple cider or white wine vinegar instead.
