  • cheongyang chili peppers 1-2

Recipe 🍳

  1. Heat the pan, then generously coat the bottom with fragrant perilla oil.
  2. Place the makchang sundae whole into the pan, turning frequently until the outer skin becomes golden and crispy.
  3. Use a torch to apply intense flames directly onto the surface of the grilled sundae, thoroughly infusing it with smoky aroma.

  5. Lay clean perilla leaves on a serving plate, then arrange the grilled makchang sundae attractively on top.

  1. Coat the pan generously with perilla oil and place the makchang sundae in whole.
  2. Grill, turning frequently, until the exterior turns golden brown.
  3. Apply a strong torch flame to the surface of the sundae to deeply infuse smokiness.
  4. Slice into convenient bite-sized portions and arrange on a plate lined with perilla leaves.
  5. Garnish with ssamjang, chujang, and sliced cheongyang chili peppers for final presentation.

Cooking tips 💡

  • The outer membrane of the makchang becomes increasingly savory and chewy the longer it’s grilled, so achieving a crisp exterior is key.
  • Using perilla oil instead of regular cooking oil helps eliminate the characteristic off-odor of makchang while amplifying its rich, nutty flavor.
  • Enjoying the sundae wrapped in perilla leaves with a mix of tangy chujang or salty ssamjang and spicy cheongyang chili peppers ensures a balanced, non-repetitive taste experience.
