Finding these ingredients in the US
- RadishKorean radish (mu) is at Korean markets; daikon from any Asian grocery is the closest everyday swap.
- Green OnionKorean large green onion, at Korean markets. Elsewhere use the white parts of several scallions, or a mild leek.
- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
- Low-sodium Soy SauceAny supermarket soy sauce works here; low-sodium versions swap in 1:1.
