Recipe
Cooking tips
- Blanching the spinach for more than 30 seconds will break down its texture, so it is important to blanch it only briefly and cool it quickly in cold water.
- Seasoning with seasoned salt instead of soy sauce or fish sauce prevents discoloration and gives a clean umami without any heaviness.
- Adding salt to the blanching water brings out the vivid green color of the spinach and removes its characteristic earthy smell.
Recommended for
- Those who have struggled with spinach namul becoming tough or retaining a bitter taste.
- Those who want to easily make a clean and savory classic side dish.
- Those looking for a refined namul side dish that goes well with bibimbap or holiday table settings.
