Kim Dae-seok's Onion Kimchi

Adds umami depth with yogurt and creates crisp, non-soggy onion kimchi by soaking in maltose and salt to prevent moisture buildup

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding maltose during the soaking process causes osmotic pressure, drawing out moisture from onions and preventing excess liquid from forming later.
  • A small amount of soju helps prevent off-odors in kimchi and allows it to stay fresh and clean-tasting for longer storage.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a refreshing kimchi to pair with oily holiday dishes or meat-heavy meals.
  • Home cooks who want a quick, no-boil method using cold rice and yogurt instead of stock.
  • People looking for onions that stay crisp and firm even after extended storage.
