    1 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce

    Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and hollow green tops. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Peel the carrots; thinly slice on an angle. In a bowl, whisk together the soy glaze, vinegar, sesame oil, 1/4 cup of warm water, and as much of the gochujang as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be.
