Hi maangchi!

I recently had some cereal drink my korean friend gave me, however, I don’t think it is sikhye. Can you confirm what this drink is and whether the process of making it is similar? http://www.wjfood.com/beverage/morningrice.asp

Thanks!

skip dried kelp and make good stock with dried anchovies and dried shiitake mushrooms. Your soondubu jjigae will still be delicious!

I will update more hot pepper flakes photos soon. Taeyangcho for kimchi making is good, too.

Can you please upload the picture of the pepper flakes you use? And a picture of the sweet flour you use? Actually, Can you upload the pictures you used for this video? It was not really clear in the video because I would like to use the same ingredients. I would also like to ask if you can use uncooked frozen squid to put in the kimchi? Would that be fine? How long will the kimchi last for until it is expired?

Thank you Maangchi… Your the best!!

Thanks for the link. My mum said that I have added too much garlic. Will reduce the portion and update you the results next time I make it. Thanks for your help =)

I would say thank you very much for this recipe! soondubu jigae had been my favourite soup. I traveled very far just to have a nice bowl of soondubu. Although there is a lot of korean food in M’sia, From a stall to a stall, only 1 of the shop is my favourite!

What is best is that today i had just tried to cook your soondubu and it turn out just fabulous. Though is not the taste that i had in that particular restaurant, but I couldn’t help but to say your soondubu is up to par with a lot of restaurant and even better than a lot of expensive korean restaurant cuisine we have here.

Tonight I am going to try the spicy rice cake; ddukbokkie. Hope it turn out just wonderful like the soondubu I had.
And by the way, i put 3 and half tbs of chilli flakes really upset me! It was not spicy at all. T.T probably i will try 5 tbs the next round.

Thank you very very very much again.
