Cooking Instructions
Step 1
I’m going to introduce how to make delicious grilled dried pollack, the kind you definitely buy and eat when you visit Gangwon Province! It’s a dish that truly shines with its savory and slightly spicy flavor profile.
Step 2
First, take your dried pollack and soak it in 1/2 cup of lukewarm water for at least 10 minutes until it becomes pliable. Once it’s sufficiently softened, rinse it thoroughly under running water and then squeeze out as much moisture as possible with your hands. This step is crucial for removing any fishy odor and ensuring the marinade penetrates well.
Step 3
Carefully check the pollack for any remaining small bones and remove them. This ensures a pleasant eating experience without any unpleasant surprises.
Step 4
Now, let’s prepare the flavorful marinade. In a bowl, add the soaked and squeezed dried pollack. Mix together 1 tsp minced garlic, 1 Tbsp gochujang, 2 Tbsp oligodang, 2 tsp gochugaru, 1 Tbsp soy sauce, and 1 Tbsp maesil cheong. Whisk everything until well combined to create the golden ratio for your marinade. Evenly coat both sides of the dried pollack with this delicious sauce. You can let it marinate for a little while for even deeper flavor.
Step 5
Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper and arrange the marinated dried pollack pieces on top, spreading them out slightly. Place it in a preheated air fryer set to 180°C (350°F) and cook for 10 minutes. The cooking time might need slight adjustments depending on the thickness of the pollack and your specific air fryer model.
Step 6
After 10 minutes, your delicious grilled dried pollack will be perfectly cooked and ready to enjoy! The savory aroma will fill your kitchen. Transfer the beautifully grilled pollack to a serving plate, and you’ll have a dish that rivals any professional restaurant. It’s incredibly satisfying, especially when served with a warm bowl of rice.
Step 7
Now you can easily make this flavorful grilled dried pollack at home, which is even more delicious after marinating and then grilling. It’s a versatile dish that’s perfect as a side for any meal or even as a tasty appetizer!
