Cooking tips 💡
- As time passes, moisture from the dallae and peppers will seep into the sauce, thinning it out. To counter this, make it extra thick and packed with solids when first preparing.
- Lightly crushing the round root end of the dallae with the back of a knife helps draw out its distinctive fragrance more fully.
