Cooking tips

  • Peeling butterbur stems with bare hands can stain your nails black, so it's best to wear food-safe gloves.
  • For a clean flavor in sweet-and-sour muchim with vinegar and sugar, do not add sesame oil.
  • If the bitterness of the butterbur stems is too strong, soak the peeled stems in cold water for 1–2 hours to reduce the bitterness.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to stimulate their appetite with a slightly bitter and refreshing flavor.
  • Those who enjoy the appealing crunchy texture of seasoned vegetable dishes.
