💡 Tips
• The key to a delicious karedok is the kencur — its distinctive aroma really makes it special
• All the vegetables should be fresh and washed thoroughly since they're eaten raw
• The karedok seasoning tastes better when ground with a mortar and pestle rather than blended, so the texture turns out just right
