Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Soaking jjimijae in water makes it moist and tender without mayonnaise, while also reducing excessive saltiness.
  • Avoid squeezing out excess water from soaked jjimijae with your hands—this can dull the flavor and cause it to become tough again. Let it drain naturally through a colander.
  • Maltose must be added at the very end, after turning off the heat and using residual warmth, to keep the jjimijae soft and shiny.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a fresh, new twist on the usual gochujang jjimijae bokkeum.
  • People who want soft jjimijae that stays fresh and doesn’t harden in the fridge over time.
  • Fans of side dishes with the crisp, sharp taste of chili peppers.
