Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Avoid over-blanching, as this can make the amaranth greens tough or mushy—keep it brief (30–40 seconds) and plunge into cold water right away.
  • Using doenjang alone may result in a one-dimensional flavor; adding 1 tablespoon of soy sauce enhances depth and balance.
  • Do not skip squeezing out moisture—excess water will dilute the dressing and make the salad soggy.

Recommended for

  • Those who enjoy savory, umami-rich, and nutty side dishes based on doenjang.
  • Home cooks looking to quickly prepare a satisfying meal in minutes.
