The three-color dumplings made with natural coloring powder stimulate the texture, and because they utilize the salty taste of squid, they are delicious even without additional seasoning.

Finding these ingredients in the US
- WatercressWater dropwort, at Korean markets in season. Watercress comes closest in flavor and crunch.
- Green OnionKorean large green onion, at Korean markets. Elsewhere use the white parts of several scallions, or a mild leek.
- Garlic ChivesSold at Korean and Chinese markets as 'buchu' or garlic chives. Regular chives are much milder — use more.
- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
- Whole SesameToasted sesame seeds are in the spice or international aisle; raw ones just need a quick toast in a dry pan.
