Steps

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

Trim the garlic chives and cut into 5-6 cm lengths; remove the root and skin from the onion and slice it into thin strips.
Peel the pear, cut into eighths, remove the seeds, and slice.
Mix the minced garlic, gochugaru, anchovy fish sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, lemon juice, and sesame seeds (2 g) to make the seasoning sauce.
Remove the moisture from the garlic chives, onion, and pear.
Put them in a bowl and toss with the seasoning sauce.
Put on a plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds (2 g) to finish.

💡 Tip- Pear supplies the sweetness of fruit instead of sugar.<br> - Garlic chives boost the flavor and reduce the sodium used.
