This Man's Cook Perilla Seed Kalguksu

A deep-flavored bean sprout salad enhanced with crisp, lightly pickled radish for added texture, seasoned with anchovy sauce instead of salt for a savory umami richness.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not open the lid while boiling bean sprouts—this prevents any fishy smell from developing.
  • Avoid slicing the radish too finely, as it will lose its crisp texture; aim for a thickness similar to the bean sprouts.
  • Do not rinse or squeeze the pickled radish excessively—just strain it to remove excess moisture naturally, preserving the crisp bite.
  • For better adhesion and richer aroma, lightly crush the sesame seeds before adding them to the dish.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a refreshing twist on everyday bean sprout salad with a distinctive texture.
  • Home cooks who want to create a rich, savory vegetable side dish using anchovy sauce.
  • People seeking a crisp, refreshing summer side dish with a cool, crunchy bite.
