Cooking tips

  • Do not over-blanch young radish greens—keep it around 25 seconds and quickly cool in cold water to preserve texture.
  • Thoroughly remove salt from pickled cucumber to ensure the kimchi is balanced and refreshingly crisp.
  • Using dried chili peppers and fresh chilies instead of chili powder gives a cleaner, cooler flavor ideal for hot weather.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make young radish kimchi without the typical raw aroma.
  • Those who enjoy both the crisp texture of pickled cucumber and the refreshing bite of young radish greens.
