After putting the rice to cook, next was the perilla seed miyeokguk. The first thing he handled was obviously the seaweed. Jo Minjoon washed it cleanly with cold water, and then, squeezed it out. After that, was the perilla seeds. Jo Minjoon grated the perilla seeds in the rice water.
The next step was simple. Jo Minjoon fried the seaweed in the perilla oil, and after putting perilla seed powder, rice water and diced garlic in a pot, he closed the lid. The reason he didn’t use instant rice and prepared the rice this way was because of this reason. Because he couldn’t use anchovy broth in a vegan dish. The rice water was insufficient, but it would play the role of broth.
Seasoning it after it was almost done was enough. Jo Minjoon closed the lid and prepared for the next thing. Gamjajeon, cabbage roll. The first thing he had to handle was the cabbage roll. It was better to make the gamjajeon last because of it’s crunchiness.
First, Jo Minjoon simmered the cabbage in a water that was mixed with vinegar and salt. After that, he sliced the vegetables long, and after taking out the water of the tofu, he squashed it. There couldn’t be water left on the tofu. Because when you ate it, the water left in it could soak the ingredients in your stomach.
