Recipe
Cooking tips
- Blanching the anchovies beforehand reduces excess saltiness and prevents them from becoming tough during stewing, keeping them soft and tender.
- Avoid over-reducing the sauce—leaving some moisture ensures the anchovies stay soft and juicy even after cooling.
- If perilla leaves are unavailable, substitute with fragrant common greens like sesame leaves, green onions, or scallions for a similar fresh aroma.
Recommended for
- Parents who want to serve calcium-rich anchovies to children in a soft, non-stiff form that’s easy to eat.
- Anyone looking for a convenient, satisfying, and moist traditional side dish rice ball that can be prepared ahead and enjoyed anytime.
