Kim Dae-seok's Garlic Chives Preservation

Cooking tips 💡

• This recipe is designed for room-temperature (balcony) storage, so the brine must be significantly saltier than typical pickles to prevent spoilage and ensure long-term preservation.
• Adding a small amount of new sugar enhances a clean, subtle sweetness that complements the savory depth of the chives without being artificial.
• Soju acts as a natural preservative, preventing mold and fermentation, making it essential for long-term storage.
