DDUK GOCHI

Hi MsInterpret,

The sauce for dduk gochi is simple, and you can actually just fry the dduk instead of deep-frying.

Here’s my recipe for dduk-gochi:

Ingredients:

3 tbs of go-chu-jang (spicy red pepper sauce), 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 1/2 tbs of sugar, 1 tbs of honey or mool-yut (corn syrup), 1/2 tbs soy sauce, 1 tbs ketchup

Preparation:

1) Cut the dduk into three sections. (about 2 inch sections)

2) Put about three pre-sliced dduck on top of each other on a toothpick to make a skewer.

3) On a skillet, put enough oil to cover just the bottom of the pan.

4) Heat the oil, once its hot, put the skewered dduk and fry on each side until golden brown.

5) While the dduk is being browned, mix the ingredients.

6) Once the dduk has been browned evenly, put aside on a plate to cool for about a minute or two.

7) Drizzle the sauce on top of the dduk. It’s best to eat while still hot, so make sure not to cool too much!

BTW, the sauce is just an estimate, and it’s good for about 1/2 the pack of dduk. You might want to double the sauce recipe to ensure you have enough sauce to cover the whole pack of dduk. Enjoy!
