Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Steaming squid without water preserves its firm, chewy texture and prevents it from becoming soggy.
  • Using two-fold vinegar instead of regular vinegar keeps the dressing free of extra moisture while enhancing the bright, tangy flavor.
  • Adding 1/2 tablespoon of doenjang to the dressing brings a rich umami depth that enhances appetite.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a tangy, savory squid salad with the perfect texture.
  • People looking for a spicy-sour side dish or snack on days when they lack appetite.
  • Anyone curious about making a clean, non-water-based dressing for salads.
