Jajeongmyeon is a Korean comfort food dish of noodles topped with pork, potatoes and onions in a fermented black bean sauce. Singles eat it on Valentine's Day.
In America, Feb. 15 is Singles Awareness Day. Its acronym pretty much sums up the feels of that “holiday.”
If you think it sounds like the Northern Chinese dish zhajiangmian, that’s because it’s a direct descendant. Immigrants brought the saucy dark noodles to South Korea and evolved it into a Korean-Chinese standard. The Chinese version is saltier and sharper, with a runnier sauce speckled with ground pork; the thicker Korean ragu is lightly sweeter and dotted with chunks of meat and vegetables.
