Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If moisture remains on the maesil or the container, mold may develop, so ensure they are completely dry before proceeding.
  • Properly removing the stems prevents a bitter, astringent taste in the maesil syrup and yields a clean sweetness.
  • The toxicity of the maesil seeds naturally dissipates when the pulp is removed after 3 months or when aged for over a year.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a secret seasoning that adds a clean savory depth and subtle sweetness to Korean dishes.
  • Those who want to make a digestive maesil extract to enjoy as a beverage or tea throughout all four seasons.
