Ingredients needed 5 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Blending garlic in a blender alters its flavor, so you must use knife-minced garlic to keep the kimchi flavor clean.
  • Use coarse gochugaru for kimchi instead of fine powder to avoid a pasty texture and achieve a refreshing color.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator; it will keep well for over a month or two without spoiling.
  • It is not suitable for regular radish kkakdugi that releases too much water, so use it for napa cabbage, chonggak radish, green onion kimchi, etc.

Recommended for

  • Those who find the process of making paste for kimjang cumbersome and difficult.
  • Those who want to easily make various types of kimchi with a single seasoning paste.
