Click here  Japchae (Korean Glass Noodles With Pork and Vegetables)  The chae in japchae means "finely cut," and it refers to all the thin slivers of vegetable, egg, mushrooms, and meat that add a vibrant mix of colors, flavors, and textures to a base of springy sweet potato glass noodles. The selection of ingredients that goes into this famous noodle dish isn't accidental: Each is chosen for a particular color it adds to the mixture, in alignment with obangsaek, an important concept in Korean aesthetics that connects specific colors with the five elements. A good amount of prep work is required here to get all the components ready, but this is otherwise a fairly easy dish to assemble, and one that can be made in advance.
