Kimchi Jjigae

EverydayCooked

Kimchi Jjigae is a hearty Korean stew centered around fermented kimchi, typically made with aged kimchi for optimal flavor development. This spicy, warming dish commonly incorporates tofu, pork, or seafood in a rich broth, creating a nutritious meal that benefits from both the probiotics of fermented cabbage and the protein of its added ingredients. The stew's characteristic deep red color and robust flavor profile come from Korean red pepper paste (gochugaru), garlic, and the complex umami of the fermented ingredients.
