Okjubu's Traditional Pork Kimchi Jjigae

Traditional pork kimchi stew with crisp kimchi texture and rich umami flavor

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If the stew cooks beyond 10 minutes after boiling starts, the kimchi will become overly soft like stewed kimchi—cook within 10 minutes if you prefer a crisp texture.
  • When the kimchi is very sour, adding a small amount of sugar helps balance the acidity and improves overall flavor harmony.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a hearty, spicy and refreshing soup for a satisfying meal.
  • People looking for a fail-proof, golden ratio seasoning for classic kimchi jjigae.
