After boiling the pork once, marinate it in seasoning to reduce the sodium content. I reduced sodium intake by adding broth and reducing salt.

Finding these ingredients in the US
- Chili PowderLook for 'gochugaru' (Korean chili flakes) at Korean or Asian markets. Crushed red pepper is sharper and hotter — use about half if substituting.
- Gochujang (Red Chili Paste)Sold as 'gochujang' in the international aisle of most large supermarkets; Korean markets carry more sizes and heat levels.
- Green OnionKorean large green onion, at Korean markets. Elsewhere use the white parts of several scallions, or a mild leek.
- Sweet PumpkinSold as kabocha squash at most supermarkets, especially in fall. Butternut squash is wetter and sweeter but works.
- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
