Cooking tips

  • Removing the cucumber seeds thoroughly prevents the jangajji from softening easily and keeps it crunchy until the end.
  • Roasting the ginger in a dry pan removes the pungent taste and brings out a sophisticated flavor unique to the jangajji.
  • The soju in the seasoning acts as a preservative, allowing for fresh, long-term storage without the need to boil the brine.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to quickly make a refreshing and crunchy jangajji to pair with meat dishes or greasy foods.
  • Those who want an ultra-simple jangajji recipe without the hassle of boiling and cooling soy sauce brine.
