Cooking tips 💡

• Adding too many vegetables at once lowers the pan temperature and causes them to release too much liquid, so stir-fry in small batches.
• Since chunjang is primarily made from wheat flour, it can stick to the pan easily—stir quickly to prevent burning.
• After adding the starch slurry, bring the mixture to a boil above 80°C (176°F) to ensure it thickens properly and doesn't become watery later.
