Cooking tips
- Using a small amount of New Sugar along with salt when brining cucumbers helps retain moisture and keeps them crisp throughout consumption.
- Never skip straining the blended mixtureโleaving solids in will make the broth cloudy and heavy; always use only the clear liquid for a refreshing result.
- Adding a small amount of soju to the broth helps prevent mold formation and reduces the risk of spoilage.
- Do not rinse the brined cucumbersโthis preserves their natural flavor and prevents dilution of the brineโs seasoning.
Recommended for
- Those who want a cucumber water kimchi that stays crisp until the last bite.
- People seeking a visually appealing, clear, and refreshing broth kimchi without any heaviness.
- Fans of cool, naturally flavored broths made from fruits and vegetables.
