Ingredient substitutions

Gochugaru: Aleppo pepper is a gentler substitute; crushed red pepper works but is usually sharper and hotter.
Sesame seeds: Omit if necessary; the dish loses some aroma.
Salt: Soy sauce can add saltiness but also changes color and flavor.
Green onion: Chives or a small amount of leek can work, with a different flavor.
Garlic: Garlic powder works in a pinch but lacks fresh aroma.
