Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Dried kelp should be removed after 5 minutes as it becomes sticky and absorbs too much soy sauce if left longer.
  • Separate the layered layers of onion by hand to ensure the brine reaches every corner.
  • Can be eaten starting the day after making; after two days, the flavor deepens and the texture becomes even crunchier.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a clean, crunchy pickle to serve with meat dishes.
  • Those wanting to make a golden ratio pickle brine that’s not salty but full of umami depth.
