Kim Dae-seok's Peanut Sosu Jeon

A uniquely crispy and richly nutty sosu jeon made by adding peanut powder—known as the secret weapon of the pantry—to fragrant spring sosu, enhanced with tempura flour for an irresistible crunch.

Ingredients needed 1 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Using tempura flour and cold ice water ensures the jeon stays crisp without becoming soggy, maintaining maximum crunch for a long time.
  • Adding peanut powder blends perfectly with the sosu’s aroma, enhancing the dish with a rich, nutty depth.
  • When mixing the dough, gently knead with your hands to avoid suffocating the sosu’s aroma—this allows the fragrance to fully emerge.
  • Sosu jeon burns easily, so maintain a heat level slightly above medium to avoid scorching.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy both the fresh spring scent of sosu and intensified nuttiness in one bite.
  • People who’ve always been disappointed by lack of crispness when frying jeon.
  • Those seeking a unique, healthy appetizer to enjoy with makgeolli on rainy days.
