This Man's Cook's Gukbap-Style Kimchi
Using cold rice instead of glutinous rice flour to feed the probiotics, and New Sugar for sweetness, this recipe creates large, crisp, refreshing kimchi in the style of a famous gukbap restaurant that stays crunchy over time.

Cooking tips
- Never rinse the brined radish with water, as this washes away its umami and seasoning. Only strain it through a colander to remove moisture.
- Sugar makes the brine sticky and softens the radish during fermentation. For the clean, refreshing sweetness typical of restaurant-style kimchi, using New Sugar is essential.
- Fermentation speed varies by storage temperature, so check the flavor daily to monitor ripeness.
Recommended for
- Those who want a refreshing, sweet-and-tangy gukbap-style kimchi that pairs perfectly with galbitang or gomtang.
- Those who want to make kimchi easily without the hassle of boiling a broth, using cold rice instead.
- Those who prefer crisp, crunchy texture that lasts even after long fermentation.
