Hello everybody!

What are you making these days?

These days it's getting cooler,

it's like fall season has come.

I think that we need some spicy stew.

So we are going to make Kimchi-jjigae, kimchi stew.

This is one of the most popular korean side dishes,

stew among all the dishes.

I've never seen anybody who hates Kimchi-jjigae.

If you can eat spicy food, everybody loves it.

Some people don't like kimchi texture,

but when I cook this, everybody loves this.

You remember eight years ago,

I started uploading my video on youtube,

so many people loved this recipe.

Today I'm going to remake this video

with a little different recipe more upgraded,

and more tasty and with HD!

To make this stew more tasty I am going to make

anchovy stock with these dried anchovies.

And I'm going to choose the seven

most handsome guys here.

So if you don't have dried anchovies,

you can use chicken broth or beef broth or even water.

One, two, three... seven.

These guys are chosen.

These guts is like black kind of intestines,

all everything together.

I just remove this all remove the black stuff.

Around maybe 1/3 cup amount,

and slice thinly.

These three green onions.

I'm going to use these, these roots, add this to my stock.

Here you go!

You can get this dried kelp in any grocery

store these days but expensive.

When you visit a korean grocery store,

it's much cheaper.

So I'm going to add just this amount

three or four inches

These guys are going to make really delicious stock.

Four cups of cold water, and then boil.

Meanwhile let's chop up these vegetables and kimchi.

kimchi is in my refrigerator,

and three green onions I will just cut it first.

Two green onions

and this is for later garnish.

I will just chop it up.

And medium sized one onion I am going to use whole

Slice thinly so when it's cooked,

this onion is going to be almost melted.

give sweetness.

To make the Kimchi-jjigae it should be fermented kimchi,

which means the kimchi tastes sour like aged kimchi.

I have, maybe three weeks ago, I made this kimchi,

well well fermented, very sour.

And perfect for me to make Kimchi-jjigae.

This is my fermented kimchi,

I'm going to show you this one,

it's yesterday I made this kimchi.

You know in korean cuisine kimchi is so important.

My kimchi, these days this kimchi, old kimchi is so sour,

so just making Kimchi-jjigae, Kimchi-bokkeumbap,

Kimchi soup, Kimchi pancake, all kinds of stuff I make with this.

But I still miss the freshly made kimchi,

so yesterday I made this kimchi I'll show you.

Very fresh smells, I love that.

And then this juice, kimchi brine we call this.

You need to press down like this,

Smells good, I love that.

I want to eat this but today I have to

eat my lunch with my Kimchi-jjigae.

Before I run out of aged kimchi,

I gotta prepare my freshly made kimchi.

I'll put it back,

and then I will show you this one.

Wow smells sour,

Look at that, brine,

smells really pungent.

I'm going to use one pound of kimchi.

One pound kimchi, and we need kimchi brine.

I will use around 1/4 cup.

So let's put this here.

And then again press down and then close,

so put this in the refrigerator.

I'm going to bring my meat,

today I will use pork: 1/2 pound.

This is shoulder part but you can use pork belly.

Pork belly is very delicious but

sometimes when I see too much fat,

this pork shoulder, but I like to include this skin.

Skin part is so tasty when you cook.

I'm going to cut this kimchi first,

bite-sized.

This part.

It's boiling over...

I open just half.

So I need to cook this 20 minutes.

red hand! Let's wash!

It was frozen but I put this in the refrigerator,

a few hours later just easy to cut.

Like this.

And then I'm going to add onion one cup,

and green onion, two green onions chopped.

Exactly twenty minutes see, wow bubbly and boiling

I'm going to turn down the heat.

Low heat and close.

We are going to add something like hot pepper flakes

and make it spicy and salty and a little sweet.

Salt one teaspoon,

and sugar I will use two teaspoons.

One, two.

Hot pepper flakes you may want more spicy,

and you can add more hot pepper flakes.

And hot pepper paste around one tablespoon.

And sesame oil one teaspoon, gorgeous!

Turn off.

Wow look at that!

Kelp, really expanded.

Also radish I, I made radish really sliced thinly

that's why you can see through almost half translucent.

Look at that, so that means all delicious stuff came out.

Let's strain.

Look at this color, beautiful color.

So all these things are edible you can eat it (laughs)

and also this dried kelp is expanded,

don't throw away I usually cut thinly and

then just stir fry with soy sauce and a little honey

and garlic and sesame oil later,

it's tasty like one side dish you can make.

Measure two cups.

One cup,

two cups.

We have a little, like around a half-cup more,

but you can add later if you want.

So let's go.

Ten minutes after I will just mix this and add my tofu.

This is tofu, I am going to use half package.

I use medium firm or firm tofu,

or just any type of tofu you can use.

And half, this one, I am going to use later.

I will show you how I do this leftover tofu.

Fill it up with water, clean water,

and keep in the refrigerator.

It will be okay up to a couple of days.

And then let's go to our stew!

already ten minutes passed.

See this hot pepper paste, mix well.

Then tofu.

close.

Turn down the heat to medium.

Yes... and this green onion, like this.

Nice!

This is my mitbanchan.

mit- banchan, side dishes in the refrigerator.

I keep this for long time I can eat it.

Gochu-jangajji is green chili pepper pickles.

umm! Ocean smell!

This is Doljaban-muchim.

And my rice, multi-grain rice.

Cheers everybody!

So this is for four servings,

Four people can share this amount.

Oh my, so good!

Sweet, sour and spicy, and savory!

And then let me taste this pork.

Very delicious, it's a little salty,

so always eat with rice.
