Cooking tips 💡

• If you blanch daepae pork belly in boiling water, the meat will become tough, so blanch it gently at a temperature just below boiling to keep it tender.
• Soak the cucumber in ice water, then drain well before using so the sauce adheres properly and the crunchiness is maintained.
• Doubanjiang is high in salt, so adjust the amount according to your taste.
