Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Since the cucumber isn't salted beforehand, its crisp texture is maximized—best served right before eating.
  • Using anchovy sauce instead of regular fish sauce reduces fishy aroma while enhancing the depth of umami without overpowering the fresh vegetable flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those looking to quickly add a fresh side dish during a busy meal prep time.
  • People wanting to easily enhance the depth and savory richness of gochujang-based salads.
