Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Gochujang Emulsion Magic 🌶️
    Whisk the gochujang with heavy cream and a splash of pasta water to create a smooth, clingy sauce that coats the pasta perfectly.
  • Burrata Placement Perfection 🧀
    Add the cold burrata on top of the hot pasta just before serving to create a luxurious temperature contrast and create stunning visual appeal.
  • Pasta Water Preservation 💧
    Always reserve at least 1 cup of pasta water before draining; its starchy richness is crucial for creating a silky, emulsified sauce.
  • Layered Cheese Technique 🧀
    Fold in shredded mozzarella off the heat to prevent separation, then finish with freshly grated Parmesan for maximum flavor complexity.
  • Gochujang Heat Balance 🔥
    Start with a smaller amount of gochujang and taste as you go, building heat gradually to achieve your perfect spice level without overwhelming the dish.
