Recipe
Cooking tips
- Do not over-blanch the pumpkin leaves—more than 1 minute will make them tough. Timing must be precise, and immediate cooling in cold water ensures tenderness.
- Instead of adding seasonings directly to the greens, mix all the dressing ingredients in a bowl first. This prevents uneven seasoning and ensures even distribution.
- For a spicier kick, add a small amount of gochujang to the dressing for a delicious variation.
Recommended for
- Those who want to enjoy pumpkin leaves in a new way beyond wrapping, as a soft and flavorful side dish.
- People who prefer simple, hearty, and healthy seasonal side dishes with a rich, savory doenjang flavor.
