Finding these ingredients in the US
- ZucchiniKorean zucchini (aehobak) is sweeter with thinner skin; regular zucchini works fine in most dishes.
- Shiitake MushroomFresh shiitake are in most supermarket produce sections; rehydrated dried ones give even deeper flavor.
- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
- TofuAny supermarket tofu works — pick firm for stews and stir-fries, silken for soft soups.
