1
Cut the burdock into 20 cm pieces and then cut each piece vertically into 2-4 strips.

Use a rolling pin or similar utensil to crush each piece so that the flavor can penetrate easily.
3
Cut the burdock into 4 cm long pieces.

Of course, it doesn't really matter how big the pieces are, but if the sizes are uniform, the finished result will look nicer.
5
Boil the burdock in water.
6
How tough or soft they are is up to you!
7
Crunchy burdock is delicious, but tender and soft burdock is also really good.
8
Combine all of the sauce ingredients.
9
If you have a mortar and pestle, then partly grind 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds.
10
Freshly ground sesame seeds will give a more distinct aroma.
11
Once the burdock has been boiled to your desired degree of tenderness, drain the water completely.
12
Combine with the chili pepper and vinegar miso sauce while still hot so that the flavors can penetrate to the middle of the burdock root.

If you have homemade Chogochujangon hand, then all you have to do is add the sesame.
