All about Tojang & this noodle dish
Tojang is a Korean soybean paste that is super versatile and easy to use! It is Sempio’s signature Doenjang recipe, with a rich and complex flavor. Try it yourself by ordering on Amazon! The deliciousness of this paste makes it a necessary kitchen staple – especially in vegan households. We love how this paste levels up this dish! The sauce in this dish is made of only 4 simple ingredients:
- Tojang Soybean paste
- Soy Sauce (tamari for gluten free option)
- Maple Syrup
- Garlic
It is way too easy to make this dish! Just make your favorite noodles (we used linguine but feel free to use rice noodles to make gluten free!) whisk together the 4 sauce ingredients and then combine the sauce and noodles in a big bowl! Seriously, what could be easier? We love to top it with green onions and sesame seeds and if you like extra spice sriracha is a delicious topping!

I looked up the tojang soybean on Amazon it lists seafood seasoning as an ingredient. This makes it not vegan. Do you know of a brand that is 100% vegan ? Thank you
Click on the sauce they have linked in the description of this recipe at top of page. It looks vegan.
