Kim Dae-seok's Nogak Jangajji

Cooking tips 💡

• Be sure to completely remove all seeds to prevent cloudiness in the brine and avoid residue buildup during pickling.
• Adding half a cup of vinegar during pickling effectively eliminates the characteristic sharp bitterness of nogak.
• For storage, add a small amount of brine and 1/3 cup of plum syrup, then keep in a kimchi refrigerator—this allows the pickle to remain fresh for over a year.
• Always drain sliced nogak through a mesh bag or cloth to maintain its crisp texture and enhance chewiness.
