This was in the kimchi section at my Korean mart. It’s sweet and spicy and kinda tastes a bit fishy. Hard gummy in texture. I thought I was buying a kimchi vegetable thing but it doesn’t seem vegetable-y at all

Thanks y’all

    Goes great with rice.

    Always scoop out a small amount from the storage container into a banchan bowl, and eat from that banchan bowl.

    If you need to get more from the storage container, always use a new utensil.

    Do not let any saliva go into the container. Do not use fork/chosticks you are using to eat with to pull out from the storage container.

    This will help preserve the banchan stay fresh in your fridge longer.

    This goes for all foods, but some people think banchan can lost longer because it’s salted etc. But if you let any saliva, even a small amount, get into the storage container, it will go bad pretty quick.

    This is dried squid (or cuttlefish) that has been seasoned with a paste made from (usually) gochujang, rice syrup, garlic, sesame oil, and some other neutral oil like rapeseed/canola.

    Looks like ojingeochae-bokkeum with sesame sprinkles.

    It’s Jinmichae 진미채. It’s so goooood

  5. my favorite banchan, that’s what that is. ojingeochae bokkeum

  6. Can anyone tell me how long this lasts in the fridge or if you can freeze it? I’d like to make some but I’m the only one that eats it at home

    this is ojingeo muchim. it is more sweet than it is spicy. it is served cold.

    ojingeo bokkeum is stir fried, doesn’t usually use the squid/cuttlefish dried strips like this, and is spicy. usually served hot.
