Kim Dae-seok's Seasoned Bomdong

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Do not over-blanch the bomdong (spring napa cabbage)—exceeding 1 minute and 30 seconds will cause it to lose its crisp texture.
• Cooling immediately in cold water helps preserve the vibrant green color and prevents the bomdong (spring napa cabbage) from becoming soggy.
• Adjust the final seasoning by tasting and adding an additional 1/3 tablespoon of doenjang if needed, depending on the saltiness of the paste used.
• Lightly crush the toasted sesame seeds between your fingers before adding them for a richer, more aromatic flavor.
