I drained and seasoned them with gochu-garu (hot pepper flakes), fish sauce, salt, garlic, ginger, and green onions. The final kkakdugi is crunchy, salty, and tastes so fresh that it stimulates my […]

A simple, refreshing, nutty side dish I learned how to make from the Buddhist monks in Korea. A one-minute sautée brings it to life and makes all the other dishes on the table taste better!
