It's an important sauce. Usually, pickled vegetables add vinegar, but I cut the vinegar and made it. The reason is that when vinegar is added, the fragrant scent of perilla leaves disappears and the seasoning taste is strong. Add 2 cups of anchovy broth = 400ml, 1 cup of water = 200ml, 1 cup of soy sauce = 200ml, 1 cup of plum juice = 200ml, 20 peeled garlic, and 10 cheongyang peppers and bring to a boil. The point of this sauce is anchovy broth and plum juice. If you make it with anchovy broth, the seasoning is clean, not salty, and light.
STEP 3/5
Pour boiling water into a container with perilla leaves. Based on my sauce, you can use as little as 120 sheets or as many as 150 sheets. I don't use the container full, I only put in about two-thirds.
STEP 4/5
Don't cool it down, close the lid, refrigerate the three-day market, and the seasoning will be cut through the perilla leaves and ripen deliciously.
