Whoa, this was really spicy! Scaling down to 1 serving, I decided to be brave and add all of the optional 1 1/2 teaspoons of red pepper flakes, and boy, it burned! The sesame flavour comes through nicely though. This was a fairly easy recipe to put together, but I need to adjust the seasonings to suit my taste. -

Oh Dear!! I am on FIRE! I made the recipe as called for but I was short on the red chili pepper, so only added one tablespoon...soooooo glad I did!! I love spicy food (usually have at least one spicy-hot food on the dinner table)...but this was over the top for me. I love the crunch of this dish and will make it again with maybe only a TEASPOON of red pepper flakes and a bit less of the sesame oil. -
This is great! -
This recipe is fabulous hot or cold....I love it!!! -
I disagree with Kathy, also. I have a Korean dad and his mother taught my mom to make this dish, and we always add the red pepper flakes and onion; it wouldn't be congnamul(seasoned bean sprouts) with out it!
