Recipe
Cooking tips
- Summer napa cabbage has high moisture content; salting it will destroy its crisp texture and make it tough, so it should be used fresh without salting for best results.
- Adding honey syrup helps lock in moisture on the surface of the salad, giving it a glossy, appetizing shine.
- Pounding about half of the sesame seeds before adding them enhances their nutty flavor, allowing it to better penetrate both the dressing and cabbage.
Recommended for
- Those who want to make a quick geotjeori without the complicated process of fermenting kimchi.
- People looking for a crisp, spicy kimchi that pairs perfectly with kalguksu or ramen.
- Anyone wanting to enjoy fresh, cool kimchi flavor instantly during summer.
