Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the vegetables. Thinly slice half an onion. Slicing it thinly helps it absorb the seasoning better and improves the texture.
Step 2
Finely chop half a green onion, using both the white and green parts. The onion’s fragrance will add depth to the seasoning and enhance the overall flavor.
Step 3
Cucumber is optional, but adding it provides a refreshing crunch. Slice one cucumber into thin half-moon shapes.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to mix everything together. In a large bowl, combine the sliced onion, chopped green onion, sliced cucumber, and the cleaned ark shells.
Step 5
Let’s make the delicious sauce and add it in. To the bowl, add 6 Tbsp soy sauce, 2 Tbsp plum extract, 2 Tbsp cooking wine, 2 Tbsp vinegar, 1 Tbsp oligodang, 3 Tbsp gochugaru, and 1 Tbsp minced garlic. Gently mix everything with the other ingredients, being careful not to break the ark shells.
Step 6
Finally, drizzle in 1 Tbsp sesame oil for aroma and sprinkle with sesame seeds for a nutty finish. Mix well, and your delicious ark shell bibimbap topping is ready! Serve it generously over warm, freshly cooked rice for a truly delightful meal.
