If you use a knife to chop the shrimp, it retains its chewy texture and has a good texture. - It's also delicious with chopped leftover cabbage kimchi.

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.
- Garlic ChivesSold at Korean and Chinese markets as 'buchu' or garlic chives. Regular chives are much milder — use more.
- Shiitake MushroomFresh shiitake are in most supermarket produce sections; rehydrated dried ones give even deeper flavor.
- Soy SauceAny supermarket soy sauce works here; low-sodium versions swap in 1:1.
- TofuAny supermarket tofu works — pick firm for stews and stir-fries, silken for soft soups.
