Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Brining the cabbage with sugar and salt together lets you wilt it quickly while keeping a crisp texture without feeling rushed.
  • Adding glutinous rice paste helps the seasoning cling to the cabbage, gives it a glossy color, and softens the flavor.
  • The seasoning sauce makes enough for multiple uses. Use about 3 tablespoons seasoning sauce per 250g cabbage as a guide, adding little by little to taste, and refrigerate the remaining seasoning sauce.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make the savory geotjeori unique to gukbap or kalguksu restaurants at home.
  • Those who want to finish fresh geotjeori in 10 minutes without a complicated kimchi-making process.
  • Those looking for an all-purpose kimchi seasoning sauce recipe that can be kept and used over time.
