A kimchi stew that maximizes refreshing, sweet-savory umami by using fully fermented pa kimchi on a base of stir-fried fresh kimchi and pork

Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Avoid leaving excess kimchi seasoning or cabbage in the mix, as it can make the broth heavy or give it an off smell—gently brush off the outer layer before use.
  • Cooking pork and kimchi together from the start prevents the pork from becoming tough and keeps it tender while allowing the kimchi to absorb the pork’s rich flavor.
  • Use only fully fermented, tangy pa kimchi to ensure the stew achieves its signature refreshing, sweet-savory umami.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a special kimchi jjigae recipe with deep, refreshing flavor.
  • Those with an abundance of overly fermented pa kimchi left in their fridge.
  • Those who want to enhance stew flavor using natural ingredients instead of artificial seasonings.
