Cooking tips

  • Folding the eomuk firmly in a zigzag shape prevents them from unraveling during cooking and maintains a beautiful flag-like appearance.
  • When increasing the quantity for cooking, if you increase the gochujang proportionally, the broth can become murky. It's better to slightly reduce the amount of gochujang to adjust.
  • Adding too much black pepper can make the taste similar to tteokbokki. To preserve the unique spicy and sharp flavor of eomuk, use only a small amount.
  • The umami from the eomuk itself is important, so it's recommended to use delicious eomuk with a high fish content.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to recreate the spicy and sharp flavor of eomuk from street stalls at home.
  • Those who want to make a high-quality side dish with simple seasoning ratios without making a complex broth.
  • Those looking for a quick and satisfying spicy snack for a hungry evening.
