Recipe

Wash the gwari gochu thoroughly and remove the stems.
Place the cleaned gwari gochu and 2 tablespoons of flour into a plastic bag and shake well to evenly coat with a light batter.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon whole sesame seeds, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic. Mix well to make the sauce.
Transfer the floured gwari gochu into a microwave-safe dish and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of water evenly over the surface.
Cover the dish and microwave for 3 minutes.
Let the gwari gochu jjim cool slightly, then pour the prepared sauce over it and gently toss to combine.

Coat washed gwari gochu with flour using a plastic bag.
Mix the required ingredients to prepare the sauce.
Place the gochu and 1 tablespoon of water in a microwave-safe dish and steam for 3 minutes.
Let it cool slightly, then add the sauce and toss gently.

Cooking tips

The prepared sauce can also be used as a dipping sauce for grilled gim (seaweed).
Do not apply the sauce immediately after microwaving—let it cool slightly to preserve the texture of the gochu and prevent the coating from falling off.
