Red Hot! Kimchi Jjigae
Kimchi jjigae is Korean home cooking. I wanted to enjoy this quintessential Korean dish easily at home, so I tried recreating it using my tastebuds as a guide!
This is one of my basic go-to Korean recipes.
The star of this dish is the kimchi! By adding the kimchi liquid, you'll get closer to an authentic jjigae!
The key is to use dashi stock based of dried sardines (iriko)! This is delicious made with canned tuna or mackerel instead of meat. Recipe by Nokosandon

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Slice the garlic, and julienne the ginger. Cut the vegetables and meat into easy-to-eat pieces.
- 2
Put the kimchi, vegetables and meat into the ddukbaegi (earthenware pot). Add water and start heating (the amount of water should be 3 to 4 times the amount of kimchi.)
- 3
Add the dried sardine-based dashi stock just before the contents of the ddukbaegi (earthenware pot) come to a boil!
- 4
Add the kimchi liquid! This is to add richness and depth to the flavors of the soup.
- 5
Put the Chinese chives on top and simmer well! At the very least, simmer it until the vegetables and meat are cooked through!
- 6
The earthenware pot conducts heat well, so if the liquid evaporates too much add some water. Taste, and adjust the spiciness to your liking!
- 7
When it's as spicy as you want it to be, drizzle in some sesame oil to finish! This is delicious with canned tuna instead of meat!

Kimchi Hot Pot Sundubu Jjigae Style Kimchi Hot Pot Sundubu Jjigae Style
Sautéing the red chili pepper and kimchi creates a rich taste! The umami flavor from the fermented krill is exquisite as well!The ingredients may stick to the pot since no oil is used; but, you will add some water later on and then, they will all come out easily. Just remember to cook it over low heat and not to scorch it! Adjust the seasonings according to the amount and taste of kimchi. You could add other vegetables such as bean sprouts.

You don't need to add any seasonings. Why not try this very flavourful kimchi jjigae with tarako?1. If you cut the tarako into small pieces and simmer, it will fall apart in the soup, so add it as is or cut in half and add to the pot.2. Please try not to stir so much you want to keep the tofu and tarako in tact. Recipe by Gutsugutsudesu -
Kimchi Jjigae Stewed Udon Kimchi Jjigae Stewed Udon
I had some kimchi in my fridge. I like stir-fried udon noodles with kimchi but this time I felt like preparing jjigae-style stewed noodles.Use the kimchi and its pickling brine too. It cooks through easily in residual heat in a clay pot so after covering with a lid, stop heating quickly. You can cook the egg to your liking but I like the eggs to be soft-set.

Easy Kimchi Jjigae (김치 찌개 - Kimchi Stew) for Two Easy Kimchi Jjigae (김치 찌개 - Kimchi Stew) for Two
To make kimchi jjigae (TCHEEgeh), you really should use ripe (as in sour) kimchi. You could make it with the fresh stuff, but that's not what this dish was invented for, which was to get rid of the kimchi that's been fermenting just a little too long when you've got huge earthenware jars full of fresher stuff still waiting to be eaten.And because it's jjigae or stew, you don't want it to be all that soupy. Jjigae is meant to be thin enough to give you the occasional spoonful of intensely flavored and piping hot broth to eat with your rice, but not so soupy that you could drink it.This recipe is easily doubled if you'd like more servings. Just need a bigger pot. ;)

Easy and Authentic Kimchi Jjigae in Just 10 Minutes! Easy and Authentic Kimchi Jjigae in Just 10 Minutes!
I really love jjigae and I wanted to recreate an authentic one at home while still keeping it easy to make. It's healthy and I can make it soon after getting home from work so I eat it almost everyday. Have it with natto and it'll be 10 times as good!First fry the kimchi in sesame oil making sure not to burn it. Don't cut the tofu with a knife. Add in the bean sprouts last so that they stay crisp. If you want a denser stew, try adding natto. You'll really be surprised at how rich it will taste. If it gets too spicy, try adding an egg. Recipe by TomHiro -

Kimchi Hot Pot For Kimchi Lovers Kimchi Hot Pot For Kimchi Lovers
I love kimchi, and ginger, and garlic too. I wanted to fully enjoy the flavor of kimchi, and got to this recipe.I referred partly to a comic magazine about delicious food to create this.By cooking the pork belly and vegetables together in a frying pan before adding them with the kimchi to the hot pot, the umami in them will be multiplied. Be sure to use pork belly!Use kuzu noodles that are made with real kuzu flour - they have a firmer texture.The top photo shows the hot pot before it's cooked. It looks red, but after cooking, it will turn a dark vermillion. Recipe by harapecoci -
