Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not over-blanch the perilla seeds—keeping them for only 15 seconds preserves their crisp texture.
  • Steaming the squid with the lid closed instead of boiling prevents loss of flavor and moisture, keeping it firm and juicy.
  • Adding flour while rinsing the perilla seeds helps effectively remove its characteristic fishy odor and impurities.

Recommended for

  • Those who enjoy a unique combination of chewy squid and crunchy perilla seeds.
  • People looking for a simple, healthy seafood dish enjoyed with spicy gochujang.
  • Those seeking a clean, satisfying meal for dinner or as a light appetizer.
