Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Pickling radish with both salt and corn syrup draws out moisture completely, resulting in a satisfyingly crisp, dry texture similar to traditional festival-style dried radish.
  • Boiling squid causes its flavorful compounds to leach out. Always steam it to preserve its naturally sweet and rich taste.
  • For salads, use double-strength vinegar instead of regular vinegar to prevent excess moisture and maintain a clean, sharp finish throughout.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a tangy-spicy snack dish.
  • Fans of fresh, crisp, aromatic minari dishes that stimulate the appetite.
  • Homeowners planning gatherings or holiday meals and looking for a standout dish to serve guests.
