Cooking tips
- Thoroughly rinse the fresh kimchi to remove excess seasoning and brine—this maximizes the clean, rich flavor unique to this jjim.
- To reduce fishy odor when cooking anchovies, add mirin and always remove the heads and internal organs to prevent bitterness.
- For the deepest flavor, gently cook the kimchi at the end until the broth nearly evaporates, ensuring the taste penetrates deeply into every piece.
