5 Minute Korean Bean Sprouts Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse bean sprouts in cold water and discard any bad sprouts.
• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Plunge bean sprouts and cabbage into the pot and let boil for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, sesame seeds, fish sauce, and garlic together in a bowl for dressing.
• Drain water from the pot and run cold water on the sprouts for 1 to 2 minutes. Squeeze bean sprouts with your hands to remove excess water. Place sprouts and cabbage into a mixing bowl and add carrot, green onion, and dressing; mix well.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a medium pot. Pour in bean sprouts and cover the pot. Cook until tender, about 30 seconds. Drain and rinse with cold water. Transfer to a salad bowl.
• Add green onions, garlic, chili powder, soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt to the bowl with the bean sprouts and mix.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the bean sprouts, and cook uncovered until tender yet still crisp, about 15 seconds. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the bean sprouts are cold, drain well, and set aside.
• Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, chile powder, garlic, and sesame seeds together in a large bowl. Stir in bean sprouts and toss until well coated with the sauce. Sprinkle with green onions and season with rice wine vinegar. Refrigerate before serving.

Steps:

• Drop the bean sprouts into boiling water and boil 5 minutes. Drain well. Return to the pan.
• Stir in the salt, sesame seeds, sesame oil, garlic, cayenne, and green onions. Simmer 2 minutes.
• Serve hot or cold.
