Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

  1. Mix the doenjang, gochujang, apple juice, sesame seeds, minced garlic and sesame oil to make the sauce.
  2. Soak the cockles in salted water for 30 minutes to remove grit, then blanch in boiling water for 10 minutes.
  3. Cut the wild chives, perilla leaves and bell pepper into 5cm pieces, and toss the cockles, wild chives, perilla leaves and bell pepper with the sauce.
💡 TipSesame seeds, sesame oil and apple juice, which have their own distinctive aromas, are used to reduce the amount of doenjang, and a variety of vegetables are added to supply vitamins and minerals and help excrete sodium.
