Cooking tips

  • Adding a small amount of salt to the boiling water when blanching helps preserve the bright green color of the greens.
  • Always use plenty of water when boiling vegetables—this maintains the boiling temperature and prevents the greens from developing a bitter taste or becoming tough.
  • Using aged soybean paste instead of regular salt or soy sauce softens the natural bitterness and sharpness of chwinamul, enhancing their depth of flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a refreshing, aromatic spring vegetable side dish.
  • People seeking a delicate, rustic-style seasoning with a clean, nutty taste instead of strong seasonings.
  • Home cooks looking for proven techniques for successful vegetable blanching and simple seasoning balance tips.
