Cooking tips
- For bitter greens like castor aralia shoots or jujube sprouts, blanch for about 1 minute 30 seconds to retain crispness and reduce bitterness appropriately.
- Adding a small amount of ssamjang to the gochujang dressing softens its sharpness and adds a deeper, richer flavor.
- Rinse blanched greens under cold water at least twice to fully cool them down, ensuring vibrant green color retention.
Recommended for
- Those who enjoy seasonal bitter spring greens.
- People looking to savor fresh castor aralia shoots in a crisp salad form instead of pickled.
