Kim Dae-seok's Yeolmu-kkongchi-jorim

A rice-thieving braised dish with tangy ripe young radish kimchi and savory canned saury, finished with a spoonful of doenjang for zero fishiness

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding a small amount of raw sugar at the start softens the sharp sourness of over-fermented young radish kimchi.
  • One tablespoon of doenjang not only eliminates fishiness but also deepens the savory richness of the broth.
  • Using both the kimchi liquid and the canned saury liquid builds a deep, rich umami without any extra seasoning.

Recommended for

  • Those wondering how to use up sour young radish kimchi.
  • Those who want to polish off two bowls of rice with just one braised dish.
  • Those looking for a simple, hearty main dish using canned saury with no fishy smell.
