….During winter when Napa cabbage is delicious, I choose Napa cabbage as a vegetable for wraps on my table. Napa cabbage is crisp and aqueous with a subtly sweet and mild flavor. There are a lot of recipes for ssamjang, but I found a recipe with cutlassfish that I was curious about the taste. I picked one recipe influencer @108boothkwon and tried it. This recipe was also recorded as a recipe that remembers the taste of her mother’s food. It’s hard to get some good cutlassfish in my neighborhood…….I waited for a long time, and I got them yesterday. Finally, I made a ssamjang with cutlassfish. Wow!! This is so delicious… cutlassfish are delicious no matter what. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
