Recipe 🍳
- Using a julienne peeler, slice the radish into thin, long strips of uniform thickness.
- Add oligosaccharide and seasoned salt to the julienned radish, mix well, and let it marinate for 1 hour to preserve the crunchy texture.
- Place the marinated radish in a strainer to thoroughly drain the released liquid, achieving a firm texture.
- Add gochugaru, vinegar, anchovy sauce, plum syrup, sesame oil, and sesame seeds to the drained radish in order.
- Finally, add minced garlic and finely chopped green onion, then gently toss until evenly coated without the seasoning clumping.
- Julienne the radish and marinate with oligosaccharide and seasoned salt for 1 hour.
- Drain the marinated radish completely using a strainer.
- Add gochugaru, vinegar, anchovy sauce, garlic, green onion, and all other seasoning ingredients, then toss well.
Cooking tips 💡
- Marinate the radish for a full 1 hour to completely remove moisture so that the salad stays crisp and doesn't release water even after being dressed.
- If you prefer a less sweet and sour taste, adjust the amount of vinegar and plum syrup according to your preference.
- Crush or grind the sesame seeds by rubbing them between your hands for a deeper nutty flavor.
