Recipe

Cooking tips

  • You must use fully fermented, very sour kimchi to achieve a refreshing, clean taste that harmonizes with the richness of the eomuk.
  • Adding an entire package of eomuk can overpower the kimchi jjigae flavor, so it's best to adjust the amount to around 200g.
  • Don't hold back on the included soup packet—use it all to achieve the deep, balanced flavor of a restaurant-quality jjigae.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to try a different style instead of the usual pork or tuna kimchi jjigae.
  • Those who want to quickly make a refreshing and spicy broth dish using leftover soup-style eomuk and sour kimchi.
  • Cooking beginners who want to achieve a perfect, deep savory flavor without fail.
