Kkakdugi – Cubed Radish Kimchi Recipe

JinJoo — Mon, 30 Jan 2023 01:20:54 +0000

[caption id="attachment_9372" align="aligncenter" width="861"] Kkakdugi Cubed Radish Kimchi[/caption]

Kkakdugi or Cubed Radish Kimchi is probably the 2nd most popular kimchi in Korea, next to Baechu (Cabbage) Kimchi.

Part of the reason is because Kkakdugi is a very easy and quick Kimchi to make - just in 30 minutes or so. So, if you have never made Kimchi before, this is a great one to start with. It is also popular because, of course, it is very tasty. In my opinion, the best way to enjoy Kkakdugi is most definitely with hearty soups like Galbitang, Gomtang and Seollongtang. Oh, boy, my mouth is watering just thinking about eating the crunchy, slightly sour, mildly sweet, spicy and garlicky Kkakdugi with the hot savory Kalbitang. The zing of the Kkakdugi fermented taste really highlights the flavor of the beef soup, while also cleaning your palette from any fatty taste the soup may have. So...that you are ready for the next spoonful!!

Instant Pot Gamjatang (Korean Spicy Pork Bone Stew)

JinJoo — Wed, 04 Jan 2023 23:45:46 +0000

Gamjatang is a wonderfully hearty and spicy Korean stew made with pork neck bones and potatoes. It's a great frugal meal that Koreans enjoyed especially during the cold season. BTW, if you cannot get pork neck bones, you can just use pork ribs and it will still be delicious.

Instant Pot Gamjatang recipe was a perfect recipe to try because it requires cooking the pork bones for a long time. Loaded with flavors, this hearty stew recipe is simple and easy to make in the IP. When compared with my traditional recipe, this recipe was just as yummy if not better.

[caption id="attachment_12877" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Instant Pot Gamjatang (Korean Pork Bone Stew) Recipe[/caption]

Instant Pot Gamjatang (감자탕) Korean Pork Bone Stew has been on my list to 'cook for blog' for a while now (probably too long.. haha). When I first got my Instant Pot back in June, I immediately thought that Galbijjim and the Instant Pot Gamjatang recipe was something that would be perfect Korean food to be made in this amazing appliance.

So, this time I actually cooked both regular and IP recipe at the same time. And I can tell you with total confidence that the Instant Pot Gamjatang came out just as flavorful as the regular recipe and definitely was simpler and quicker to make.
