Cooking tips 💡

• Adding lemon juice to the sauce enhances freshness with bright acidity, reducing radish’s raw aroma while boosting umami depth.
• Soaking boiled noodles in ice water helps maintain their chewy texture for a longer time.
• Grinding toasted sesame seeds slightly before use intensifies their nutty aroma and flavor compared to using them whole.
