- Smoked salmon — Finely chop the smoked salmon to ensure it is evenly distributed throughout the filling.
- Fresh dill — Use fresh dill for the best flavor. Chop it finely to release its aromatic oils.
Tips & Tricks
- If you don't have a Bungeoppang mold, you can use a regular fish-shaped mold or even a muffin tin.
- Experiment with different fillings such as cream cheese and jalapeno, or Nutella and banana for a sweet twist.
- Serve the Fusion Bungeoppang with a dipping sauce like sweet chili sauce or soy sauce for added flavor.
- Make sure to grease the mold well to prevent the Bungeoppang from sticking.
- Enjoy the Bungeoppang while it's still warm for the best taste and texture.
Serving advice
Serve the Fusion Bungeoppang as an appetizer or snack. They are best enjoyed warm, straight from the mold. Arrange them on a platter and garnish with fresh dill sprigs for an attractive presentation.
Presentation advice
To enhance the presentation, dust the Fusion Bungeoppang with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or drizzle them with a savory sauce like sriracha mayo. Serve them on a bed of lettuce leaves for a pop of color.
