Instructions

  1. Thinly slice the scallions lengthwise into long, thin strips.
  2. Place the scallion strips in a bowl of ice water and let them soak for 10 minutes to reduce their sharpness. Drain well and pat dry with a clean towel.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, tamari, brown sugar, gochugaru, and toasted sesame seeds until the sugar dissolves.
  4. Add the scallions to a mixing bowl and pour the dressing over them. Toss gently to coat. Let the salad sit for at least a few minutes or up to 2 hours before serving.

Notes

  • 🔪 Shreddy Krueger
  • Use an extra-sharp knife to cut the scallions into uniform, thin strips. Drying them first prevents slipping, making them easier and safer to slice.

  • Pat the scallions completely dry before dressing them to avoid diluting the flavors or making the salad soggy. A small salad spinner also works well for this.
