Recipe
Cooking tips
- Choose medium-sized Korean melons rather than very large ones for better brine absorption and superior texture.
- Always place the Korean melons with the hollow side up; if they face down, the brine won’t penetrate properly.
- Soju is used to balance and refine the flavor of the pickling liquid.
Recommended for
- Those who want to enjoy fresh Korean melons in a unique pickle form.
- People seeking a satisfyingly crunchy side dish during the summer months.
- Those who wish to use the Korean melon pickle in salads or cold soups.
