Ingredients:
● 2 bunches young cabbage, putbaechu (about 300 grams each)
● 1 tablespoon (or to taste) doenjang, fermented soybean paste
● 2 teaspoons sesame oil
● 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Trim off the roots from the cabbage. Wash thoroughly until there is no sand in the water.
Bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil. Add a tablespoon of salt. Blanch the cabbage until the white parts turn soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the cabbage from the pot and shock in cold water to stop the cooking.
Drain and squeeze out water. Cut into 5- to 6-centimeter lengths.
Add the remaining ingredients and mix everything well by hand. Let it sit for 10 to 20 minutes before serving for the flavor of the seasonings to seep into the cabbage.
