Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not over-blanch minari, as it will become tough—blanch exactly for one minute and immediately cool in cold water.
  • Use savory salt and tuna sauce instead of regular salt to enhance umami flavor while preserving minari’s natural aroma.
  • Squeeze out as much water as possible so the seasoning penetrates evenly and doesn’t sit on the surface.

Recommended for

  • Those who love fresh, crisp seasonal vegetable side dishes.
  • People seeking foolproof techniques for perfectly blanched, non-tough minari.
  • Individuals looking for a simple, deep-flavored side dish made with minimal ingredients.
