Cooking tips
- Buckwheat flour tends to be brittle due to low starch content, so adding a bit of potato starch maintains its rich aroma while significantly boosting chewiness.
- The batter must not be too thick—this ensures it spreads thinly and evenly across the pan.
- Excess seasoning from aged kimchi can burn or overpower the flavor during cooking, so remove chili powder with your hands and squeeze out all moisture before using.
- High heat causes the batter to clump or burn quickly, so always cook on low heat to preserve the desired chewy texture.
Recommended for
- Those seeking a traditional, comforting taste that pairs perfectly with makgeolli on a rainy day.
- Anyone who wants to experience the harmonious contrast of crisp aged kimchi and chewy buckwheat batter.
