Cooking tips
- Do not soak the anchovies in water for too long, as their natural umami flavor will be lost; limit rinsing to about 20 seconds to remove only surface salt.
- Using jujube syrup instead of corn syrup or sugar keeps the dish moist and prevents it from becoming overly hard or sticky over time, delivering a subtle, deep sweetness.
- Avoid prolonged heating of soy sauce on high heat, as it can quickly burn and develop a bitter taste; turn off the heat as soon as it starts boiling, then mix in the jujube syrup.
Recommended for
- Those who want a soft, non-stiff dried anchovy stir-fry that stays fresh even after being stored in the fridge for days.
- People who find store-bought anchovy stir-fry too salty or overly sweet.
- Individuals seeking a simple ingredient list with bold, satisfying flavor for a reliable side dish.
