Kim Dae-seok's Mu-jjanji
Traditional mu-jjanji made by salting whole radishes, then aging them with chili seeds, soju, and jujubes.
Ingredients needed 10 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Use small, firm fresh radishes rather than large regular ones—this ensures they stay crisp and don’t soften over time.
- Use only the recommended amount of soju. Store finished mu-jjanji in a sealed container in the refrigerator, and discard if it develops off odors or changes in appearance.
- The key to success is completely blocking contact with air—squeeze out every bit of air from the plastic wrap and seal tightly to prevent spoilage and flavor degradation.
Recommended for
- Those who want a consistently crisp and refreshing side dish as a traditional side dish.
- People aiming to make traditional mu-jjanji cleanly with careful refrigerated storage.
- Those seeking a refreshing, watery rice accompaniment during summer when appetite is low.
