Blanch and Season Sprouts

Start by bringing a pot of water to a boil. Once it’s boiling, toss in the bean sprouts, cover the pot, and let them cook for about 30 seconds until they’re just tender. Drain the sprouts and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking. Then, transfer everything to a bowl. Add chopped green onions, minced garlic, a sprinkle of chili powder, soy sauce, a drizzle of sesame oil, and a pinch of salt. Give it all a good mix so the flavors come together nicely.

Serving Suggestions

Serve chilled or at room temperature alongside grilled meats or spicy dishes. It also pairs well with steamed rice and kimchi for a balanced meal.

Storage Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Eat within 1-2 days for the best texture and flavor, as bean sprouts can become soggy over time.
