It's summertime and the heat is intense. Even if you live in an area where it's always hot, wouldn't you want a refreshing and simple dish to prepare? Our Korean recipe for today is Dongchimi, a popular water kimchi dish that's perfect for summer. This refreshing dish is commonly found in Korean restaurants and pairs perfectly with the rich flavors of Korean barbecue. Interestingly, it's prepared using Sprite and it’s super easy to make.
Here is the recipe.
[Brine the Radish]
cut 1 whole radish into small bite sizes (I got mine at fairprice, if you can’t find korean fat radish, you can get the Japanese or Chinese one)
put it in a ziplock bag and add 200ml of sprite, and 2-3 tbsp of salt (always use coarse salt)
massage it and leave it in room temp for 1hr(if you’re in a hot weather) or 2hr for winter. I live in singapore but I did it for a little over an hour.
[Marinade]
chop 1 onion
chop half a pear
add to blender
add 9 garlic cloves
1 ginger (size of a garlic clove)
add 1tbsp of salt, and 100ml of sprite
add 3 spoon of cooked rice(I used haetban)
blend it
in a container add 2L of water
put the marinade in a cloth strainer, and strain out as much as you can.
