↔ No Gochujang (Korean chili paste)? Sriracha or another chili paste with a little miso and honey gets close. It won’t have the same fermented depth.

Steps

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

Wash the whole bellflower roots and peel them.
Soak the bellflower roots in salted water to draw out the bitterness, then remove the moisture.
Split the roots in half and pound them with a rolling pin until thin and flat.
Make a seasoning paste with grated pear, minced garlic, gochujang, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
Grill the bellflower roots in a pan until cooked, then brush with the seasoning paste and grill again over low heat.
Sprinkle with shallots and sesame seeds to finish.

💡 TipAdding grated pear reduces the saltiness of the gochujang seasoning.
