Cooking tips

  • If glutinous rice flour is unavailable, you can use flour, rice flour, or blend cooked rice with water in a blender to use as a paste substitute.
  • Taste the inner leaves of the brined cabbage; if it's too salty, soak it in water to remove excess salt. If it's too bland, add more anchovy sauce or salt when making the filling.
  • When packing into the kimchi container, press down firmly with your fist to remove air and prevent spoilage caused by air pockets.
  • If you want to add more flavor, you can use beef bone broth when making the paste or add a small amount of beef dasida or MSG to the seasoning.
