Cooking tips 💡

  • Potatoes don’t cook easily, so blanch them briefly in water before use for convenience.
  • Ganjjajang must be stir-fried entirely without water to maintain its signature crisp texture from vegetable juices.
  • For extra spice and freshness, add green onions, green chili peppers, or red pepper flakes according to preference.
