This Man's Cook Garlic Chives Salad

Recipe 🍳

Cooking tips 💡

• Avoid boiling garlic chives in a pot—any slight delay can cause the spicy and pungent qualities to fade. Always use the hot water pouring method instead.
• Rapidly and firmly rinse with cold water to prevent residual heat from dulling the vibrant green color or softening the chives.
• If the dressing is too thin, it will slide off the chives and pool at the bottom like soup—adjust the amount of red pepper powder to achieve a thick, clingy consistency.
• Avoid adding sesame oil, as it disrupts the delicate balance of freshness, sour-sweet taste, and crisp bite that defines this dish.
