Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Scrape out the cucumber seeds with the back of a spoon before pickling to keep them crunchy and prevent them from going soft over time.
  • For summer kimchi, blending cold rice instead of glutinous rice paste results in a cleaner, more refreshing broth.
  • When washing eolgari, gently swish it in water and lift it out, allowing any dirt or sand to settle to the bottom.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a refreshing water kimchi to revive their appetite lost from the summer heat.
  • Those curious about the secret to cucumber kimchi that stays crunchy and never goes mushy.
