Korean salads, despite their spiciness and specificity, have gained incredibly great popularity in different countries of the world. Today it is hard to imagine that once our hostesses could do without Korean carrots or vegetables, because they are the basis for many dishes with which we will delight our guests.
Korean salads are prepared not only from raw, but also from pickled, pickled and boiled vegetables. The main components of the salad are often supplemented with mushrooms, fish or meat.
The main secret of oriental salads is hot spices and soy sauce. For example, the specific taste of Korean carrots is created using red peppers, which are roasted over a fire and then quickly cooled. Without heat treatment, such pepper would be almost unsuitable for European food, but the thermal effect "eats" the hotness and adapts the pepper to European taste.
When preparing Korean salads, be prepared for the fact that the preparation of products will take a long time. To speed up this process, it is better to get a special grater or slicer in advance (usually, food processors include an element for cutting Korean carrots). If you don't have a grater, learn how to cut carrots into thin, long strips.
Before chopping, hold the vegetable for several hours in cold water, in which case it will become much easier to work with it. It is important that the vegetables are cut into equal pieces or strips, in which case they will marinate or fry evenly.
In no case do not leave carrots or other pickled vegetables in enameled dishes, the taste of metal will be transferred to the products, which certainly will not decorate the dish.

Carrots for Korean salads need to be taken fresh and fairly large (make sure that it is not “wooden”). If chicken is used in the dish, it should be boiled and disassembled into fibers. Wash parsley for salads with warm water, not cold, so it retains its flavor better.
Korean cuisine differs from many others in its spicy dishes. And if the question arises of how to cook a spicy salad, then first of all you should pay attention to Korean salads. The main feature is the use of a very large number of spices, especially red pepper. Many dishes have a reddish-brown color precisely because of the abundant presence of red pepper.
The use of pepper is intertwined with the history of the country and its geographical position. The climate in the country is very humid, and pepper is a remedy that has always helped to increase the shelf life of products since the 16th century, when pepper first came to the territory of present-day Korea from Portugal.
In addition to pepper, it is abundantly used as a seasoning - soy sauce (quite popular in our area), twejang and gochujang (you can hardly find these seasonings on the shelves of our stores)
