Ingredients

  • 50 Egoma Leaves
  • 100 ml Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Sake
  • 40 ml Water
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Umeboshi essence (optional)
  • 1 tbsp Korean red chili pepper powder (Gochugaru)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp Grated garlic
  • 1 tsp Grated ginger
  • 1 tbsp White sesame seeds (whole or grounded)
  • 5 tbsp Finely chopped Japanese leek

Method

  • Wash the egoma leaves and pat dry off one by one.
  • Add soy sauce, sake, and water to a pot.
  • As soon as it begins to boil, transfer it to a bowl.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix.
  • This completes the yangnyeom!
  • Layer 4-5 egoma leaves and hold the stem as you dip them into the yangnseom.
  • After they have been coated, place in a container.
  • As seen in the photo, after placing one bunch of leaves in the container, place the next bunch in the opposite direction.
  • After placing each bunch of leaves in the container, spread a little bit of the yangneom and chopped leek, etc.
  • Repeat for each bunch.
  • The kennip will still have volume right after placing into the container.
  • After 1 hour it will have less volume and the flavor will have blended in thoroughly!
