Main Ingredients

  • 400g fresh oysters
  • 1/4 radish
  • 1/3 bunch scallions
  • 1 cheongyang chili pepper
  • 1 red chili pepper
  • 200g stone parsley
  • 1/3 persimmon

Cooking Instructions

Step 1

First, it’s crucial to remove any fishy odor from the fresh oysters. Place the oysters in a bowl, add 1 tablespoon of salt, and gently loosen them. Rinse them 2-3 times under cold running water. Drain the rinsed oysters in a colander for a moment. Next, immerse the rinsed oysters in 500g of rice water for about 3 minutes. The rice water will naturally absorb impurities hidden within the oysters, ensuring they are cleaner. After 3 minutes, remove the oysters and drain them.

Step 2

Prepare the vegetables that will add a delightful crunch to your oyster salad. Wash and peel the 1/4 radish, then thinly julienne it. Cut the white and green parts of the scallions separately, then chop them into 3-4cm lengths. Remove the seeds from the red and cheongyang chili peppers and thinly slice them for a spicy kick. Core the persimmon and julienne it. This will add a subtle sweetness and aroma to the oyster salad.

Step 3

Let’s make the seasoning for a delicious oyster salad. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of gochujang, 4 tablespoons of gochugaru, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Mix well until all ingredients are smoothly incorporated. Using brown sugar can lend a deeper flavor than regular sugar.

Step 4

Now, it’s time to combine all the ingredients and complete your delicious oyster salad. In a large bowl, add the julienned radish and mix in about 2 tablespoons of the prepared seasoning. Gently tossing the radish with the seasoning first will soften it and allow it to absorb the flavors better. Then, add the prepared scallions, red chili peppers, and cheongyang chili peppers, and mix lightly. Finally, add the washed stone parsley and julienned persimmon. Drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds. Be careful not to mix too vigorously, as this can mash the oysters. Gently toss until the vegetables are well coated with the seasoning.

Step 5

The finished fresh oyster salad can be enjoyed immediately, but chilling it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes will allow the flavors to meld beautifully. The addition of fresh stone parsley provides a wonderfully refreshing taste, and the combination of crisp radish and tender oysters is fantastic. Fresh oysters are rich in protein and minerals, making them an excellent choice for a diet, and they also help prevent anemia and promote healthy skin. Enjoy this nutritious oyster salad that offers both great taste and health benefits this winter!
