This Man's Cook Non-Salty Gangjungjang

Cooking tips 💡

• Sautéing the pastes in perilla oil first removes their raw, pungent odor and brings out their deep, savory flavor and umami richness.
• Zucchini breaks down easily when cooked too long, so cutting it slightly larger than other vegetables helps maintain better texture.
• The final addition of roasted soybean flour balances the overall saltiness without compromising the authentic taste of gangjungjang, adding a smooth, rich savoriness.
