BEFORE YOU COOK
Get to know the dish
What is dalgona candy?
A light, crisp Korean sugar candy associated with Squid Game. Prepare sugar, food-grade baking soda, and your tools before cooking.
Is it spicy?
Usually mild. Check your sauces and seasonings for added chili.
Where are the ingredient quantities?
Open the written recipe above to check quantities before you cook, or follow the video creator’s own recipe. Different versions can use different amounts.
Can I change the ingredients?
Adjust ingredients to suit your taste. Check package labels for allergens, including soy, sesame, wheat, fish, and shellfish. Use the original recipe for guidance on substitutions.
Make it work for your kitchen
Start by choosing the ingredients you can get locally. Read sauce labels before buying: similarly named products can have different ingredients and different levels of heat. Keep the core ingredients above as your shopping checklist.
For your first attempt, follow one complete recipe instead of combining quantities from different versions. Taste seasonings as you go, and keep optional chili separate when cooking for people who prefer different spice levels.
Plan what to serve alongside your dish before you start. A simple meal with one main dish and a few familiar sides can be a better first experience than trying several new recipes at once.
