Sauce Ingredients- 5 Tbsp Dakhanmari broth
- 3 Tbsp Gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- 3 Tbsp Vinegar
- 3 Tbsp Oligodang (corn syrup)
- 1/2 Tbsp Minced garlic
- 1/2 Tbsp Prepared mustard
- 1.5 Tbsp Soy sauce (or brewed soy sauce)
- 1 Tbsp Anchovy sauce
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, in a wide bowl, add 3 tablespoons of fine gochugaru (Korean chili flakes). Pour in 5 tablespoons of Dakhanmari broth and mix well. This step helps the chili flakes dissolve smoothly, ensuring the sauce ingredients blend together without being clumpy.
Step 2
Once the gochugaru and broth are mixed, let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes. This allows the chili flakes to fully absorb the broth, resulting in a much smoother and deeper flavored sauce.
Step 3
While the gochugaru is blooming, add 3 tablespoons of oligodang (corn syrup) to provide sweetness and a glossy finish. This adds a subtle sweetness that even children will enjoy, making the dish even more delicious.
Step 4
Next, add 1.5 tablespoons of soy sauce (or brewed soy sauce) for a boost of umami flavor. Depending on the type of soy sauce you use, the saltiness can vary, so feel free to adjust the amount to your preference.
Step 5
Add 3 tablespoons of vinegar to provide a refreshing tanginess that stimulates the appetite. Vinegar helps to balance the flavors of the sauce and enhances its overall profile.
Step 6
Incorporate 1/2 tablespoon of prepared mustard for a pungent kick and 1/2 tablespoon of minced garlic for added aroma and flavor. Using fresh garlic will yield the best results.
Step 7
Finally, add 1 tablespoon of anchovy sauce for a deep savory taste and stir everything together thoroughly. Ensure all ingredients are uniformly combined to create your delicious Dakhanmari dipping sauce!
