Buchu banchan sengchae (chive banchan) 부추승재반찬 (serves 3-4 as banchan)

     Sengchae is a type of food preperation that refers to raw vegertables in a sour and spicey sauce. The raw factor means that the ingredients are full of all of their nutrients so that they are much more healthy versus boiled down foods. Buchu (chives) are inexpensive and full of Vitamins A, B, C, calcium, and iron. On top of that, chives have a detoxing effect, naturally cleansing the body. They naturally provide the body with energy and essential nutrients. This dish is served well with rice and other banchans.

*1/8-1/4 tsp minced ginger (feel free to adjust for your own taste)
*1-2 tsp soy sauce
*1/2-1 tsp red pepper powder
*A little bit of sesame oil
*Sprinkle of sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions:
1. Clean and cut the chives into 2-3 inch lengths
2. Add the minced garlic, minced ginger, sesame oil, soy sauce, and red pepper powder. (feel free to
add more red pepper if you want more spice)
3. Mix well and garnish with sesame seeds.
