Kim Dae-seok's Radish Pickle
Radish cut into uniform strips is salted, simmered while retaining its moisture, cooled thoroughly, and finished with toasted sesame oil for a rich aroma—resulting in a crisp, non-crumbled radish pickle.
Ingredients needed 4 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Adding toasted sesame oil or sesame seeds while the radish is still hot will cause the aromatic oil to evaporate due to residual heat and make the dish look messy—always wait until fully cooled before seasoning.
- Using too much sesame seeds can dull the clean, white appearance of the radish—use only about 1/2 tablespoon as a light garnish.
- Using the green top portion of the radish, which has a naturally sweeter taste, eliminates the need for added sugar, resulting in a delicately sweet radish pickle.
Recommended for
- Those who struggle with keeping radish slices intact during cooking and want a neat presentation.
- People who prefer the natural, subtle sweetness of radish over artificial sweetness from sugar.
- Those seeking a digestible, soft side dish ideal for elderly or children.
