I tried coming up with a simplified recipe for "pounded burdock root." Even without pounding the burdock, it has a wonderfully crunchy texture. I simplified the seasoning to make the ratio relatively easy to remember.

I used toasted sesame seeds this time, but you could use ground sesame. Blanch the burdock to your preference. If you do decide to pound the burdock, do so with a pestle etc. in Step 5, after draining the burdock. Recipe by Kagocha-
