Kim Dae-seok's Scallion Kimchi

Cooking tips 💡

• Boiling the anchovy jeotgal once helps eliminate any fishy odor and enhances the depth of flavor—this is key to achieving a rich, savory taste.
• Using soaked dried chili peppers instead of just red pepper powder gives the kimchi a sharper, fresher heat and a deeper, more vibrant color.
• The white root end of perilla is thick and hard to season, so apply plenty of paste here. For the green stems, lightly brush on the remaining paste to ensure even fermentation.
