Sesame Oil Seasoning- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Thoroughly wash the Chinese yam under running water, as it may have soil on its skin. It’s important to clean it well, as the skin contains many nutrients.
Step 2
Peel the skin of the cleaned Chinese yam thinly using a peeler or a knife. After peeling, rinse it lightly with cold water again and pat it dry.
Step 3
Cut the prepared Chinese yam into bite-sized pieces. You can cut them into cubes or long strips. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sesame oil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, mixing well to create the sesame oil dip. Dip the cut Chinese yam into this fragrant sesame oil mixture to enjoy its naturally mild flavor enhanced by the rich sesame aroma. The satisfyingly chewy texture is a bonus!
