Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Blanch perilla leaves in boiling water for exactly 10 seconds to preserve vibrant color and prevent them from becoming too soft.
  • Adding tofu and ground roasted peanuts to the stir-fried ssamjang enhances its richness without making it salty—feel free to use generous amounts without worry.
  • Lightly rub your hands with a few drops of sesame oil before shaping the rice balls to prevent sticking and ensure clean, neat rolls.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a pretty, hand-held meal perfect for spring outings or picnics.
  • People who enjoy the combination of non-salty, rich homemade stir-fried ssamjang with the fresh aroma of perilla leaves.
