Cooking tips

  • Avoid using a knife on the cutting board to mince anchovies, as it can dull the blade quickly—use scissors instead.
  • Wear kitchen gloves when mincing chilies, as the spicy compounds can irritate your hands.
  • The minced onion and doenjang help balance the intense heat of the green chilies, creating a deeper, smoother flavor.
  • For best taste, allow the finished paste to cool slightly before eating, so the flavors of the chilies and anchovies fully blend.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a powerful side dish to revive their appetite during hot summer days.
  • Fans of bold, spicy green chilies paired with savory anchovy umami.
