Recipe 🍳
- Pour hot water over the mustard powder and mix well. Let it ferment in a warm place to develop a robust, less bitter flavor.
- After fermentation, add vinegar, sugar, and salt to the mustard mixture and blend thoroughly to create a pungent mustard sauce.
- Boil the yangjangpi (bunpi) until transparent, rinse under cold water, squeeze out excess moisture, then marinate with soy sauce and toasted sesame oil.
- Score the squid, and slice the clam, scallop, shrimp, and abalone thinly.
- Blanch the prepared seafood briefly in boiling water with a pinch of salt, then cool in cold water and drain thoroughly.
- Slice the pork loin, onion, carrot, and wood ear mushrooms. Cut the chives into bite-sized lengths.
- Heat cooking oil in a pan, sauté sliced green onion, garlic, and ginger until fragrant, then add the pork and stir-fry.
- Once the pork is cooked through, add soy sauce, onion, carrot, and wood ear mushrooms, stir-frying further. Then add oyster sauce and chives, quickly stir-frying to finish.
- Arrange the blanched seafood and jellyfish neatly around the edge of the plate. Place the marinated yangjangpi and stir-fried meat and vegetables in the center, and serve with the mustard sauce on the side.
- Mix mustard powder with hot water, let it ferment in a warm, sealed container, then blend in vinegar, sugar, and salt to make the sauce.
- Boil the yangjangpi, rinse under cold water, squeeze dry, and marinate with soy sauce and toasted sesame oil.
- Blanch the cleaned seafood briefly in boiling water, cool down, and arrange attractively on the plate.
- Sauté green onion and garlic in a pan to release fragrance, then add pork, vegetables, and seasonings, stir-frying quickly over high heat.
- Place the yangjangpi and stir-fried ingredients in the center of the plate and drizzle with mustard sauce to finish.
Cooking tips 💡
- Mustard must be mixed with hot water and fermented in a warm, sealed environment to eliminate bitterness and enhance its sharp, vibrant flavor.
- Pre-mixing the boiled yangjangpi with toasted sesame oil prevents sticking and helps maintain its chewy texture throughout.
- Avoid overcooking seafood—blanch briefly in boiling water and cool immediately to preserve a firm, bouncy texture.
