Recipe

All-Purpose Spicy Chili (Korean Green Chili) Pesto.

10 servings15 min

Ingredients

  • 300g of green chili peppers (Cheongyang chili peppers).
  • A clove of garlic.
  • A handful of roasted almonds (or pine nuts).
  • 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • 2 tablespoons of oligosaccharide.
  • Anchovy fish sauce, 2 tablespoons.
  • 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
  • A pinch of grated Parmesan cheese.

Steps

  1. 1. Finely chop the green chili peppers into small pieces and blend them in a food processor.
  2. 2. Roughly chop the garlic and set it aside.
  3. 3. Roast the almonds in a dry pan over medium heat until fragrant, then chop them finely and add to the mixture.
  4. 4. Combine all the prepared ingredients (including the Sieve seasoning and cheese powder) in a blender container.
  5. 5. The mixture is coarsely ground to ensure a slightly grainy texture and to prevent excessive moisture from being released, especially from the Korean radish.

Practical technique

  1. The nuts (almonds, pine nuts, etc.) that were in the freezer should be toasted in a dry pan before use. Preparation of ingredients: If necessary, remove any lingering oil or refrigerator odors from the nuts.

  2. Here's how to store pesto: * Place the pesto in an ice cube tray and freeze. * Storage and management: * If you can't consume the entire amount within 5 days, consider freezing it.

  3. Seasoning with anchovy fish sauce instead of salt or soy sauce. Cooking/Seasoning: Use when you want to maximize umami flavor.
