Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Squeeze the moisture from the oi-jjim completely—this ensures no liquid forms over time and maintains its crisp texture throughout.
  • If the oi-jjim is too salty, soak the sliced pieces in cold water for 5–10 minutes to reduce saltiness before squeezing out the moisture.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for the perfect side dish to pair with chilled barley tea rice on days when appetite is low.
  • Those wanting to make a crisp oi-jjim that stays dry and crunchy even after long storage.
