1. I reduced the amount of sodium used by using paprika powder to make a savory homemade red pepper paste. 2. Using pumpkin leaves, tomatoes, and Swiss chard, which are rich in potassium, helps excrete sodium from the body.

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.
- Korean PearKorean pears are at Asian markets and many supermarkets in fall. For marinades, a Bosc pear with a little sugar works.
- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
- SesameToasted sesame seeds are in the spice or international aisle; raw ones just need a quick toast in a dry pan.
- BeefKorean markets sell beef pre-sliced for bulgogi and hot pot. Elsewhere, ask the butcher for thin-sliced ribeye or sirloin, or slice semi-frozen beef at home.

🔍Blanch Swiss chard and pumpkin leaf for 1 minute, and cut the Swiss chard stem into bite-size pieces. Blanch the scored tomato, peel, and cut into 2x2cm pieces; slice the red chili thin. Cut the onion into 1x1cm pieces, cut the carrot into 10cm lengths, and blanch in boiling water for 1 minute.
🔍Remove the blood from the beef with a paper towel. Blend cashew and unsweetened soy milk to make cashew cream.
🔍Add rice flour and water (25ml) to a preheated pan and boil over medium heat for 30 seconds, turn off the heat, and add chili powder, paprika powder, shiitake mushroom powder, meju powder, and finely grated Korean pear to make homemade gochujang.

Stir-fry the prepared onion and chopped garlic in the pan, and once browned, add the stir-fried beef, the prepared tomato, water (125ml), curry powder, oregano, and homemade gochujang, and boil over high heat for 10 minutes. Add kidney bean and braise for 5 more minutes to make gochujang carne.
