A crisp and pungent bean sprout and green onion salad that pairs perfectly with pork belly

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Never add salt when boiling bean sprouts—doing so causes moisture loss due to osmosis, making them tough. Use plain water to maintain crisp texture.
  • When green onions are firm and fibrous, slice them against the grain; when tender, slice them along the grain for better texture.
  • Avoid pressing too hard while mixing—overworking kills the green onions’ freshness and releases bitterness. Always toss gently by hand.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a crisp, spicy-sweet green onion salad to enjoy with grilled meat.
  • Anyone wanting to learn the secret to a lasting fresh green onion salad that never loses its vitality.
