Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding salt to the blanching water keeps the garlic scapes bright green and maintains their crunchy texture.
  • Blanching for more than 30 seconds makes them tough and diminishes their pungent garlic flavor, so stick to the exact time.
  • For that banchan shop-style savory depth, add a little Miwon.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to recreate the crunchy garlic scape muchim from restaurants or banchan shops at home.
  • Those looking for a practical side dish that keeps well.
  • Those who want to preserve ingredient texture with an easy blanching tip.
