Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Boiling the salted fresh anchovies removes its fishy odor while preserving its deep umami flavor, enriching the kimchi’s overall taste.
  • Using too much plum syrup may result in an overly sour taste when fermented; stick to 1 tablespoon for balanced flavor.
  • Avoid vigorously rubbing the young radish greens and young napa cabbage, as this can release strong raw odors—handle gently with fingertips.

Recommended for

  • Those looking to make a refreshing, deeply savory Jeolla-style young radish greens kimchi.
  • People seeking seasonal kimchi perfect for summer bibimbap or as a topping for young radish greens noodles.
  • Anyone interested in mastering the technique of achieving rich umami without fishy aftertaste from fermented seafood pastes.
