Tips for Making Silverbeet with Savory Soybean Paste:
- Substitutes:
For a vegetarian or vegan option, ensure your soybean paste is
plant-based. You can also use tamari instead of soybean paste for a
different flavor.
- Spice
Level: Adjust the amount of chili paste to your preferred heat level.
If you like it milder, use less chili paste or omit it altogether.
- Extra
Flavor: Add a splash of soy sauce or a dash of rice vinegar for an
extra layer of flavor.
