Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • The secret is to use raw Chinese toon without blanching, as blanching dissipates its strong characteristic aroma; simply dry it after washing.
  • If any moisture remains after washing, the seasoning won't adhere well and the dish may spoil quickly, so dry until the surface feels leathery.
  • Use only the parts where the stem snaps cleanly and tenderly when bent, to avoid toughness.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a fragrant seasonal side dish to stimulate the appetite in spring.
  • Those who want to enjoy Chinese toon more quickly and easily than making pickles.
  • Those looking for a seasonal side dish that highlights the unique aroma of Chinese toon.
