Cooking tips

If you cannot handle spicy food, you can omit the spicy cheongyang chili pepper and make it sweet and savory instead.
Adding mayonnaise coats the strong saltiness of myeongnan in a smooth and creamy way, giving a much more refined flavor.
With just this one bowl of myeongnan jjim, you can easily finish three bowls of freshly steamed white rice—an ultimate rice thief side dish.

Those who are too lazy to use a cutting board and knife and want to finish cooking with just scissors and a bowl.
Those who want a hearty side dish that is savory, rich, and spicy to stimulate the appetite.
