Cooking Instructions
Step 1
1. First, prepare all the vegetable ingredients. Thinly julienne the shiitake mushrooms and carrot. Wash and trim the chamnamul to a bite-sized length.
Step 2
2. Lightly steam the julienned shiitake mushrooms and carrots in a steamer. This method helps retain their crispness while softening their flavor.
Step 3
3. While the vegetables are steaming, prepare the arrowroot jelly. Cut the jelly into thick strips, about 0.8cm to 1cm wide.
Step 4
4. Place the julienned arrowroot jelly in a colander. Pour hot boiling water over it until the edges appear slightly translucent, indicating it’s tender. Be careful not to overcook, as it can become mushy. Immediately rinse under cold water to firm up the jelly and achieve a pleasant chewy texture.
Step 5
5. Now, combine all the prepared ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add all the dressing ingredients and gently toss to coat everything evenly. Be gentle to preserve the freshness and aroma of the chamnamul.
Step 6
6. And there you have it! Your delicious Chamnamul Arrowroot Jelly Salad, featuring the wonderful combination of fragrant chamnamul and chewy arrowroot jelly, is ready to be enjoyed!
