Paldo Fun & Yum Ilpoom Jjajangmen Chajang Noodle, Pack of 4, Traditional Brothless Chajang Ramen

I bought two kinds of instant black bean noodles—Paldo and Ottogi—to compare the taste.But honestly, both are so delicious!If you’re Korean, you probably know that adding a bit of red pepper powder (about half or one spoon) at the end makes it even better. If not, you can try it.I’m so happy right now!

I buy these locally when I can, but I don't live near an oriental food store so these online are the same. They taste amazing, just sweet enough to make the bean taste not overpowering, but not too sweet to feel satisfying and filling. I couple this meal with kimchi or roasted brussel sprouts and it tastes amazing.

This was my first time trying black bean noodles. And I think it was a pretty good experience, especially considering that it's an Instant version. I like that the black bean flavoring is an actual sauce instead of a powder. I do have to say that it is a little on the salty side so I would suggest to drink water with your noodles or perhaps pair the noodles with a side of steamed veggies. But overall, really tasty.

Pretty good! Thick noodles and good taste. Not my favorite ever but still love them

Very good

So as someone who has bought a lot of these (180+) I have seemingly found out there is two different versions of this brands noodles, for sake of explanation we will label them A and B,When it got type A I was instantly addicted, the sauce was thick and flavorful and plentiful in the packet, it had a darker coloring which appeared almost black when mixed in with the noodles, and there were chunks of bean as well as the tofu cubes, that variant I would without hesitation recommend to any who asked, it was a 9/10, this last pick up, i got the type B packs, the branding is much more minimalistic and when I opened the sauce pack I was taken a back, the once black thick full packet was now dark brown rather thin and scarce in comparison, when I mixed it with the noodles(which are seemingly the same between variants) the noodles were a dark brown coloring and though covered did not seem as full, the largest departure was the taste, the full savory flavor of type A made yer mouth sing, but this type B sauce is kinda bland, its not bad, but it also isn't anything to write home about, its a half step above the store bought noodles but not nearly as addicting as the Type A variant. It also seemingly only contains tofu cubelets. I would pause to suggest this variety to someone, as for the price I think ya can find better options, since I can guaranteed get type A again from another source I will likely save a pack of this and do a head to head comparison, and if possible update this review with photos of the two types. Type B gets s 6.5/10, it okay, but just so, its

This is really really bland. Jajangmyeon isn't a super strong flavor, but it has good complex flavor, which this does not have. This is very very very mildly sweet with hardly any savory notes at all. It requires a LOT of buffing up with my own spices to make it actually taste like anything. I have no idea why this is so expensive when it tastes like nothing. Would not recommend buying this at all. There are better brands that make real jajangmyeon that tastes good and price is worth it, but this one is just bad.

Noodles were just right and the sauce was perfect (no bad smell). I bought the 4 pack and I will buy again.
