Cooking tips

  • If you add the sauce from the beginning, the chicken will become tough. Boil the chicken in plain water for 10 minutes first, skim off impurities, then add the sauce to keep the meat tender.
  • The key secret is to never lower the heat from start to finish, reducing quickly over the highest heat.
  • Using dark brown sugar instead of regular white sugar brings out the deep flavor and appetizing dark brown color unique to Andong jjimdak.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to perfectly recreate the rich, sweet-savory taste of restaurant Andong jjimdak at home.
  • Those looking for a fail-proof, hearty main dish for entertaining guests or weekend family meals.
