Cooking tips

When cooling on a plate, spread it out wide to enhance the crunchy texture of the cabbage.
If you don't have Yeondusoon (Yondu Soon), you can substitute with brewed soy sauce, tuna extract, white soy sauce, or other seasonings that add umami.
When you're out of side dishes, pile this namul generously onto multigrain rice, top with a fried egg and a little gochujang, and mix it up for a delicious meal.
