Kim Dae-seok's Seaweed Stem Stir-Fry

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Soaking the seaweed stems in flour water for about 10 minutes allows the flour to fully absorb the natural fishy odor, resulting in a cleaner taste.
• To maintain a crisp, chewy texture, this dish must be stir-fried quickly over high heat—this prevents moisture buildup. Cooking slowly over low heat will make it limp and soggy.
• Most of the saltiness is removed during soaking and rinsing, so start with only 1/3 tablespoon of salt and adjust at the end according to taste for safety.
