Step 1

Measure acorn jelly (dotorimuk) powder in a bowl and add cold water. Mix well.

Step 2

Add salt and mix again.

Step 3

Transfer acorn mixture into a pot and turn on heat to medium. Stir occasionally the first 3-4 minutes to make sure it heats evenly. At about 4 min, you will see tiny bits of gelatin forming and the mixture starting to thicken. Stir now continuously for another 4 min or so (total of 8 -9 min) while it becomes thick and peaks are formed (much like whipped cream) and holds shape.

Step 4

Add oil and cook for another 1 minute. Keep stirring so oil is all mixed in. Don't stop right away after it forms peaks, make sure you cook 9-10 min in total or more to ensure it's fully cooked. See video.

Step 5

Prepare a rectangular glass container or a baking pan (8"x 5" x 2(H)"works for my basic 4 servings recipe).

Step 6

Transfer the cooked, hot dotorimuk mixture from the pot onto the container in Jiggle the container a bit to evenly spread the mix. With a spatula smooth out the top as much as you can.

Step 7

Loosely cover the muk with wrap or parchment paper. Cool for 5 hrs or overnight until it's firm and bounces back when touched. It should be firmer than jello. The longer you cool, the firmer it will get up to a certain point of course. If the temperature is warm where you are, you can also let it cool in the fridge but it's better not to if you can.

Step 8

While it's cooling, make Yangnyeomjang sauce. I share 2 recipes so choose one. Sauce 1 is more simple, less sweet, spicy and not tangy - more traditional flavors. Sauce 2 is more modern and stronger tasting, sweeter, spicier, garlicky and tangy. Sauce 2 works well if you add more fresh veggies like lettuce, perilla, chrysanthemum leaves and escarole. See recipe card and make them ahead.

Step 9

In a bowl, add soy sauce, water or anchovy broth, Korean red chili pepper powder, sesame seeds, sugar, sesame oil, chopped green onions.

Step 10

When the acorn jelly is firm, loosen it by tilting the container to one side, the opposite side should start to come away from the walls. When you have done this with all 4 sides, place a plate or cutting board on top and turn it over (like how you do with baked cakes when you want to get it out of the pan). And VOILA! You should have the muk on your cutting board now.

Step 11

Cut muk into thick (1/2 inch) slices across and then again into smaller squares. Plate them and pour Yangnyeomjang sauce over them when you are ready to eat.
