Cooking tips 💡

• The secret to crunchy myeolchibokkeum is not using corn syrup. Corn syrup becomes sticky when heated and hardens into clumps later, so sugar is essential.
• Depending on your air fryer's heat, the top may burn. At the halfway point (around 5 minutes), take out the basket and shake it to mix for even cooking.
