CheonSaChae is half-transparent noodles made from the jelly-like extract left after steaming kombu, without the addition of grain flour or starch. The taste is bland, so they are generally eaten as a seasoned light salad, or served as a garnish beneath sliced raw fish. CheonSaChae has a chewy texture and is low in calories.

Is it possible to freeze these noodles. Tried the salad last night…It was fabulous. However, put the remaining noodles in the freezer to preserve. What do you think 😆
