Recipe

Do not wash the surface of the dried kelp with water; instead, wipe it clean using a dry cloth or paper towel.
Using scissors, cut the cleaned kelp into even, bite-sized square shapes.
Add a generous amount of cooking oil to a pan and preheat; then test the temperature by dropping in a piece of kelp to see if it floats lightly.
Once the oil is sufficiently hot, add the kelp pieces and fry quickly, turning them over to prevent burning.
When the kelp surfaces puff up and turn white and feel hard to the touch, immediately remove them from the oil.
After draining off excess oil, while the kelp is still hot, sprinkle sugar evenly and toss to coat so the sweetness is absorbed.

Wipe dried kelp clean with a paper towel, then cut into square shapes with scissors.
Add kelp to appropriately heated oil and quickly fry until puffed and white.
Before the kelp cools, sprinkle sugar evenly to add sweetness.

Cooking tips

Kelp burns very quickly even with slight overheating, turning bitter, so remove it immediately as soon as it puffs up.
If sugar is sprinkled after the fried kelp has cooled completely, it will not stick to the surface, so be sure to add the sugar while still hot.
If moisture remains on the kelp, the oil may splatter dangerously during cooking, so never wash with water and only wipe with a dry towel.
