Cooking tips

The key to kimchi for kimchi jjigae is to minimize the use of salted seafood (jeotgal) and use domestic gochugaru to achieve a clean, refreshing flavor without any off-tastes.
Freshly mixed before aging, it can be enjoyed right away with rice like a fresh kimchi (geotjeori), and tastes clean and delicious.
