Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Making small slits at the ends of the chilies allows the brine to penetrate fully without needing to pierce with a toothpick.
  • Pouring the brine while hot helps quickly draw out moisture from the chilies, preserving their crisp texture for longer.
  • Adding soju prevents mold formation and enables extended storage.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a versatile side dish they can make once and enjoy for a long time.
  • People curious about the perfect soy sauce-to-pickle ratio for a rich, non-salty, sweet-and-savory flavor.
  • Those wanting to make a clean, refined pickle to serve during holidays or alongside meat dishes.
