This Man's Cook's Dried Pollock Strips in Spicy Sweet Sauce
🍽️ A simple side dish recipe from Sumi's Side Dishes that softens hard dried pollock strips using a spray bottle instead of fire, making them tender and moist with a spicy-sweet flavor.
Cut the prepared 180g of dried pollock strips into bite-sized pieces using scissors or your hands.
Spray water evenly over the surface of the cleaned dried pollock strips using a misting bottle.
Continue spraying until the strips feel uniformly soft and moist when touched by hand.
In a mixing bowl, combine 3 tablespoons gochujang, 3 tablespoons plum syrup, 2 tablespoons honey, half tablespoon sesame oil, and 2 tablespoons whole sesame seeds. Mix well to make the sauce.
Add only half of the prepared dried pollock strips to the sauce at first, and gently toss to coat.
Add the remaining half and continue tossing gently with your fingertips, ensuring the sauce is evenly distributed and not clumping together.
Cut dried pollock strips into bite-sized pieces and mist with water using a spray bottle to soften and moisten.
Mix gochujang, plum syrup, honey, sesame oil, and whole sesame seeds to create a spicy-sweet sauce.
Add the dried pollock strips in two batches, tossing gently to ensure even coating.
Cooking tips 💡
Do not soak or rinse the dried pollock strips in water, as this will wash away their savory umami flavor and cause them to become slimy. Always use a misting bottle to preserve texture.
Adding all the dried pollock strips at once can cause the sauce to clump in one spot and result in uneven seasoning. Always add them in two stages for balanced flavor.
Using honey gives a much more subtle, natural sweetness and glossy finish compared to corn syrup or maltose, resulting in a richer, more refined taste.
