Cooking tips

  • Always add the shiitake mushrooms before the bird's eye chilies to preserve their chewy texture and prevent the chilies from becoming tough.
  • Cooking the dried kelp pieces directly in the stew sauce enhances the depth and premium umami flavor, resembling restaurant-quality taste.
  • The rich, sweet-salty broth left after cooking makes an excellent sauce for mixing with rice.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a hearty and economical side dish that can be enjoyed throughout the week.
  • People who want to enjoy the savory umami of mushrooms combined with the refreshing, spicy kick of bird's eye chilies.
