I have a question I made these and today I was on step 8-10. After boiling the brine there is not enough left to even cover half of the peppers……….do I just add more soy sauce and vinegar? Surely we are not supposed to refrigerate for a week when the brine doesn’t even reach up half of the peppers? anyone help?
Dear Maangchi!
I made these yesterday but missed adding the salt because it’s not included in any step in the recipe directions and I didn’t watch the video. :(
Can I add the salt in today when I take out the brine to reheat it?
I also see this many times with onions, so I included onions together in the jar.

Yes, at step 8, add 1/4 cup salt to the brine, stir, and boil.
When you watch my video, you will see me adding salt. All these years later I found the mistake thanks to you! I just fixed it. By the way, your pepper and onion pickles look good!
We have a variety of peppers in the garden. I’m going to try this recipe with different types and see what happens.

OMG I will share this in my November newsletter! Beautiful different types of peppers! Gorgeous colors with different shapes, and you organized them so well to take this photo. Everything makes me happy, I’m sure a lot of people will feel the same way!
Annyeong Maangchi,
After 6 days my Gochu-Jangajji was ready! First I tried some as a snack, and they turned out even tastier than I had expected! Of course, the red chilies from Ecuador were quite spicy, but the bellpepper was very mild, had absorbed some spiciness from the chilies, though. I guess, people that prefer a totally nonspicy version could make Gochu-Jangajji from green (or other color) bellpeppers only. I´ll try this out next time and let you know.
As mentioned in my former comment, I made Samgyeopsal-gui, and added the Gochu-Jangajji in stead of Ssamjang: it combined perfectly, and the result was mouthwatering! Today I had made a fresh batch of Yangnyeom-Tongdak-sauce, and used the rest stuck in the wok to season the Gochu-Jangajji: yummie!

Annyeong Maangchi,
Made Gochu-Jangajji yesterday, just finished the brine cooking process today, and got the jar in the fridge. Can hardly wait till next week, to try it. Planning to make Samgyeopsal-gui next week, and have the plain and the seasoned Gochu-Jangajji with it, in stead of Ssamjang.
I didn´t have green Korean gochu available, so I used red chilies (from Ecuador), and also green sliced bell pepper (for the color and not so spicy). Next time I´m in Quito, I´ll see if they have the Korean gochu in Seoul Market. Then I´ll save the seeds, and try to grow my own.
