Kim Dae-seok Chef's Albaechu Gyeotjim

A refreshing and slightly spicy spring side dish made by salting albaechu to preserve its crisp texture, then mixing it with a seasoning paste made from blended red chili and pear.

Ingredients needed 6 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not skip rinsing the cabbage before salting—dry cabbage won’t absorb salt properly. Always use damp cabbage for effective brining.
  • Use plum syrup that has been aged for at least one year to ensure a clean sweetness without excessive sourness in the finished kimchi.
  • Adding a portion of red chili separately at the end and blending it coarsely enhances the visual appeal and rich red hue of the final dish.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a refreshing, slightly spicy instant side dish to stimulate appetite in spring.
  • People who want to make delicious kimchi easily without the trouble of boiling glutinous rice paste, using leftover rice instead.
  • Fans of fresh albaechu dishes who enjoy a crisp, crunchy texture.
