Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Hello everyone! Today, I’ll guide you through an easy and detailed recipe for ‘Acorn Jelly Salad,’ which is both healthy and delicious. The chewy acorn jelly combined with a flavorful seasoning makes it a perfect side dish or a great snack.
Step 2
First, let’s prepare the acorn jelly. Lightly rinse the acorn jelly under running water to remove any impurities. Then, slice it into strips about 1cm thick, making them easy to eat. Slicing them to a moderate thickness is important, as they might lose their chewy texture if cut too thin.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to make the dressing that will bring the acorn jelly salad to life. Place the sliced acorn jelly in a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. (If you enjoy minced garlic, you can add about 1/2 teaspoon at this point. However, for a cleaner flavor, we’ve omitted it in this recipe.)
Step 4
Next, we’ll prepare the green onions. Wash the green onions thoroughly and pat them dry. Finely chop them into small pieces. The slightly pungent aroma of the green onions will enhance the salad’s flavor. Add the chopped green onions to the seasoned acorn jelly and mix them together.
Step 5
This time, let’s prepare the seaweed for added nuttiness and umami. Crumble the 3 sheets of seasoned seaweed (gim) with your hands or cut them into small pieces with scissors. The unique saltiness and rich flavor of the seasoned seaweed create a fantastic harmony with the acorn jelly.
Step 6
Now, gently mix all the ingredients together. It’s important to mix them gently to ensure the dressing coats the acorn jelly evenly without breaking the jelly apart, thus maintaining its appealing shape. It’s best to gently toss from the center outwards.
Step 7
Finally, taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with salt if needed. Seasoning with salt at the end, after all the flavors have melded, will result in a more delicious acorn jelly salad. Be careful not to make it too salty.
Step 8
There you have it! Your delicious Acorn Jelly Salad is ready. The chewy, mild acorn jelly combined with the pungent green onions and nutty seaweed is incredibly tasty. It’s great to eat right away, or you can chill it in the refrigerator for a refreshing treat. Enjoy your delicious creation!
