Here is the delicious kimchi-jjim made with the last portion of well fermented baechu kimchi with oysters.
I marinated the pork belly with mirim, soy sauce, garlic and pepper before wrapping it in the kimchi.
This hot little pouch, balanced with the fresh cucumber, spinach and salad were a perfect meal.
Have a cool photo you want to share?
Which to get? my first book has all the recipes for all the essential Korean pastes and sauces, but my second book Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking has more recipes. Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking.
