True to its name, these soft yet chewy noodles are almost transparent. Glass noodles tend to “absorb” water and flavors you cook it with. For example, if you cook glass noodles with soy sauce, your noodles are going to end up salty and dark. If you cook them instead with chicken stock, it will turn slightly brown with a lot of chicken flavors.
Traditional Korean glass noodles tend to absorb the water and flavors of what you cook it with. This creates a very flavorful and delicious noodle dish.
