Tips:

1. If you're not into spicy food, adjust the amount of hot sauce you use. You can use as little as 1/8 tsp!

2. You can store these in the fridge for up to a week.

3. Other add-in suggestions:

   1. nori

   2. fish cake

   3. jammy egg

   4. kimchi

4. If you are using a tall container, make sure you have a tool (chop stick, perhaps) that can reach all the way to the bottom to stir the ingredients well and distribute evenly in the water.
