Ingredient substitutions

Napa cabbage: Bok choy or green cabbage can work in some cooked dishes, but texture and water content differ.
Green onion: Chives or a small amount of leek can work, with a different flavor.
Sesame seeds: Omit if necessary; the dish loses some aroma.
Potato: Korean radish gives a lighter texture.
Gochugaru: Aleppo pepper is a gentler substitute; crushed red pepper works but is usually sharper and hotter.
