Method

    For the Garlic Chive Canederli:
    Tear bread into bite size pieces. Add bread to a bowl, then add oat milk and soak for 20 minutes. Afterwards, squeeze out excess milk and place in a medium bowl. Add garlic chives, beaten egg, lemon zest, and season with Yondu and pepper. Steam mixture for 15 minutes until firmed up, then place in the refrigerator to chill. Once chilled, use a small ice cream scoop to form balls and place on a tray.

    For the Vegetable Broth:
    In a large pot, add all ingredients except Yondu and salt; cover and bring to a boil. As soon as it starts to boil, remove kombu; cover, reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 30 minutes. Strain the stock through a chinois. Season with Yondu and salt.

    For the Yangnyeom Sauce:
    Mix all ingredients together and set aside.

    For the Pickles:
    Bring water, vinegar, sugar and Yondu up to a boil to dissolve sugar. Pour over vegetables and let cool. Store in the refrigerator.

    To Assemble and Serve:
    In a medium pot, bring Vegetable Broth to a simmer. Add zucchini and simmer for 3 minutes. Then gently place Garlic Chive Canederli into the simmering broth and let poach for 3 minutes. Turn off heat and garnish with chopped scallions. Serve in a bowl alongside Yangnyeom Sauce, which can be used sparingly to flavor the broth. Serve with the Pickles.
