If you love kimchi but want something extra crunchy, Radish Kimchi (Kkakdugi, 깍두기) is a great choice! The crisp radish soaks up all the spicy, garlicky flavors as it ferments, making it super refreshing and addictive. It’s easy to make and goes perfectly with rice, stews, or even on its own. The best part? It gets better with time! Enjoy!

Steps

1 Hour

1

Prepare the Radish: Toss the radish with the salt and sugar. Let sit for 30 minutes or until they release water. Drain but DO NOT rinse.
2

Combine the rice flour and water in a small pot. Cook over a medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a paste. Let it cool completely.
3

As the rice flour mixture cools blend the garlic cloves, roughly chopped apple (or Asian pear), and sesame oil until smooth and creamy.
4

Mix together the two mixtures, adding in the red chilli pepper, fish sauce (or soy sauce), and minced ginger (if using) in a large bowl.
5

Add the radish cubes and chopped chives to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until well-coated.
6

Transfer to a clean, airtight glass container, pressing down to remove air bubbles. Let ferment at room temperature for 1-2 days, then refrigerate.
7

You can serve straight away but it will taste better after a few days of fermentation!
