Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If the kimchi has a strong odor, extend the soaking time to more than a day and change the water several times during soaking.
  • Marinating the kimchi with sugar and perilla oil before cooking helps neutralize the sourness and enhances the rich, savory flavor throughout.
  • Using the reserved shiitake mushroom soaking liquid as broth greatly improves the depth and savoriness compared to using plain water.

Recommended for

  • Those looking to deliciously use up old, hard-to-handle kimchi.
  • People who enjoy mild, savory, slightly salty traditional-style side dishes without being overly spicy.
  • Anyone wanting to make a rich, slow-simmered stew with soft texture that pairs perfectly with rice.
