Cooking tips

  • Always include water in the seasoning mixture so the sauce won’t burn during cooking and the garlic will absorb the flavor evenly.
  • Using butter instead of vegetable oil when sautéing garlic reduces greasiness and enhances depth of flavor and richness.
  • Use medium-sized garlic rather than very large cloves for faster cooking and better absorption of the seasoning.
  • For a sweeter taste, you can add a bit more joescheong according to preference.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy garlic without its sharp or spicy bite, but with a rich, chewy texture.
  • People looking for a distinctive yet rice-friendly new side dish recipe.
