A grandmother's hand-taste braised old pumpkin, enriched with the nuttiness of perilla oil and the deep savory flavor of fermented shrimp sauce, melting softly like pudding.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Cut the pumpkin into thick, large pieces rather than thin slices, as thin pieces will disintegrate during cooking.
  • Season with fermented shrimp sauce instead of salt or soy sauce to bring out a uniquely deep savory flavor and a clean, refreshing taste.
  • If desired, add chopped cheongyang chili pepper or large green onion at the final stage for a clean, spicy kick.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a unique, rustic, home-style side dish using old pumpkin.
  • Elderly people or children with weak teeth who prefer soft, non-irritating foods.
  • Those who enjoy the salty, nutty harmony of perilla oil and fermented shrimp sauce.
