Summer Gimchi
June 21st, 2010 at 11:00pm |
Now that summer is officially here, I wanted to share with you my favorite gimchi to make when it’s hot — Oi Gimchi!
(The lovely photo is by Julie Toy.)
It’s a refreshingly light gimchi for the hot weather and goes so nicely with galbi and other grilled meats.
Since I live walking distance to a largely Middle Eastern market, I’ve been making them with Persian cucumbers, which are thinner and slightly sweeter than the Korean oi. Dare I say it? They’re almost better than the Korean cucumbers. I’ll have to make another batch, just to be sure.
But for now, you can see the full recipe from my last cookbook, Quick and Easy Korean Cooking, on Epicurious.com
Happy Summer, everyone! Stay cool like a cucumber.
