Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.Blanch the sprouts for 1 minute, stirring with a wooden spoon. Strain them and rinse in cold water in a large bowl for a couple of times. As you rinse them, shake them under the water so the skins fall into the bowl. Put the cleaned sprouts in a basket and strain well. Combine garlic, green onion, fish sauce, kosher salt, toasted sesame oil, and sesame seeds in a bowl. Add the sprouts and mix by hand to season evenly. Transfer them to a serving bowl or plate. Serve warm or cold as a side dish. You can refrigerate them for up to 3 days.

Thank you Maangchi!!!! I was born in Seoul but was adopted and brought to America when I was 6 and lost touch with my roots. Thanks to your videos and recipes I have gotten back in touch with my Korean Heritage. I am learning the Korean culture through your recipes. Thank you so much. This is more than just food for me. I have been watching your videos for years. I love the backstories you share about the recipes with your family, or Korean history and customs.

It looks yummy! “…sri Lankan people like most spicy food.” yeah, I didn’t know about that. If I have a chance to cook for a person from Sri Lanka, I will make some suicidal spicy dishes. : ) sa_pilipina Kunsan City joined 6/09 & has 3 commentsPosted January 17th, 2016 at 1:20 pm | Log in to reply.
