My favorite Korean dish evaaaah! Thanks to whomever it was that figured out how to get the bitterness out of acorns a long time ago. :) Amazing food, flavor explosion in your mouth and very healthy. There’s a lot of fiber in mukumuchim.
I was also wondering if perhaps it should be more than 1/2 cup of acorn powder? I followed the recipe exactly and used the pictures to really see how it should look when it bubbles and cooked it on a timer for the last five minutes stirring constantly but it’s been 8 hours and it still hasn’t set. I want to eat it so bad but it’s like a super thick gravy still.
Hello Maangchi!
I am trying to figure out the nutrition for this dish, but the acorn powder nutrition label is measured in weight (grams) whereas your recipe uses volume (cups).
How many grams did you use in your recipe?
Thank you in advance and I hope to hear back soon. :)
Sincerely,
Jane
Once the jelly is made, can it be frozen? Only 2 of us and I made too much. Yummy recipe. Many thanks. Brian
No, it has to be kept in the fridge. As time goes by it might get hard, and water might come out. Then you can blanch it in hot water and it will get soft and shiny again. You can keep it in the fridge up to one week.
Hi. I made this today but my jelly is not chewy and too soft. Any idea what went wrong?
Add more jelly powder. You have to follow exact ratio in the recipe. Good luck!
Hi Maangchi!
Thank you so much for this recipe! I used to enjoy this dish in Korea and had no idea how to make it. I tasted an other version, acorn jelly in cold soup, very refreshing! Could you explain how to make the soup?
By the way, you say in your recipe to add 1/2 cup of acorn jelly powder but you seem to add 1 cup in the video.. Did I miss something?
Thank you again for this wonderful recipe! :)
I am going to make this tonight to go with my Bibimbap. I Bought the jelly already made fresh at my local store. I was wondering how long it will stay good for? If I keep it in the Fridge how many days is it good?
You can keep it in the refrigerator up to 4-6 days.
hi maangchi, good day! is it possible to cook again the dotori mixture? , at my first attemp i kept it in fridge overnight and the dotori mixture didnt formed well, it is still mushy, i was so excited making this dish. thank u , i love to try all your recipe
No I don’t think so. It sounds like you should have used more jelly powder. Be sure to use the ratios described in the directions please. https://www.maangchi.com/ingredients/acorn-jelly-powder
½ cup acorn jelly powder (dotori mukgaru)
3 cups water
½ ts salt
Looks so very delicious and interesting. I have never seen this type of food before. I would love to try it.
I’m impress by your open mind about trying to new food.
I didn’t know it was a diet food–it’s great when summer food is low in calories. My local Korean-Japanese store looks like it closed :( but I’ll keep looking for acorn flour at the local Chinese-Asian shop. Thanks!
Let me know how yours turns out if you make this. I hope your store sells the ingredient.
This is the list of Korean grocery store in Belgium submitted by my readers including you! : ) https://www.maangchi.com/shopping/belgium
ohhh! dotorimuk is my absolute favourite! just as my mom; i can eat it anytime and whenever we go out to a korean restaurant, we have to beg for 2 more dishes of muk. (:
When I met you, I knew right away that we had simliar taste in food! : )
Hi Maangchi how are you, I am trying to make your fried chicken, I can’t find rice syrup in either giant or Safeway do you think Hmart has them is a Korean grocery store in Gaithersburg Maryland. Thanks the video of the chicken looks so good. Do you do any glutton free food or business with anyone? My sister is eating glutton free and selling a lot of product for glutton free. Maybe you can give her hints or share with her glutton free ideas? My email is in profile thanks. I am also Chinese :)
wow korean jelly salad really appreciating… and is that acorn jelly right?
