Black bean paste was first introduced to Koreans by China at the start of the 20th century, and is now used to celebrate Korean Black day, where those who weren’t able to celebrate Valentines day with a partner eat these noodles and commiserate each other. The fermented paste gives a big hit of salty, savoury flavour, and the addition of cabbage, courgette and potato makes this a great nutritious meal.
