Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Cut the skate fin meat in half and prepare. Ensure the skate fin is fresh for the best flavor and texture.
Step 2
Thinly julienne the radish. It’s best to cut it into fine strips to absorb the dressing well.
Step 3
Cut the water dropwort into 4-5cm pieces. This herb adds a refreshing, slightly peppery note.
Step 4
Julienne the onion. Soaking the julienned onions in cold water for a few minutes can mellow their pungency.
Step 5
Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise, then slice it diagonally into thin pieces. This shape helps it mix evenly.
Step 6
Slice the Korean green chili peppers diagonally. Adjust the quantity based on your preferred level of spiciness.
Step 7
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a bowl and mix well to create the salad sauce. Ensure the gochujang is smoothly incorporated.
Step 8
Add the prepared skate fin meat to the bowl with the dressing.
Step 9
Add all the prepared vegetables to the bowl and gently toss to combine everything. Mix just enough for the dressing to coat all ingredients evenly. Serve immediately and enjoy this stimulating dish!
