Cooking tips

To cook the garlic until soft and jammy without burning, start with cold oil and heat gently over low heat.
Cooking with saeujeot allows the shrimp's natural umami to deeply permeate the olive oil.
Don't discard the leftover oil—refrigerate it and use it as a base for fried rice or oil-based pasta.
