Cooking tips

  • You must thoroughly remove moisture from the shrimp or seafood with a paper towel to prevent the batter from becoming soggy.
  • If you press down firmly with a spatula after flipping the pancake, the seafood will lose its volume and the inside will become soggy, so just let it cook as is until golden brown.

Recommended for

  • Those who struggle with their scallion pancakes turning out soggy whenever they make them at home.
  • Those who want to quickly make a crispy drinking snack that pairs perfectly with makgeolli.
