Sparkling Shine Muscat Kimchi: A Sweet & Savory Delight
Shine Muscat Kimchi So Good, Even the Most Esteemed Housewives Would Admire It
There’s a saying that in Korea, any ingredient can be transformed into kimchi! Embracing this culinary magic, I’ve created a unique kimchi using Shine Muscat grapes. The natural sweetness of the grapes blends harmoniously with the savory kimchi seasoning, creating an addictive sweet and salty flavor profile. It’s surprisingly delicious and pairs wonderfully, so don’t hesitate to try this innovative recipe!
Main Ingredients- 1 bunch Shine Muscat grapes (seeds removed, halved)
- 1/2 onion (thinly sliced)
- 60g chives (cut into 4-5cm lengths)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the Shine Muscat grapes thoroughly. Carefully detach the grapes from the bunch. Then, slice each grape in half. This preparation helps the seasoning to evenly coat the grapes and enhance the flavor.
Step 2
Peel the onion, wash it, and then slice it thinly into strips about 0.5 cm thick. The thinly sliced onion will add a delightful crunch to the kimchi.
Step 3
Wash the chives under running water and pat them dry. Cut them into manageable lengths of about 4-5 cm. The aromatic chives will add a wonderful fragrance to your kimchi.
Step 4
Now, let’s prepare the seasoning. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 Tbsp of minced garlic, 1.5 Tbsp of red pepper flakes, 1 Tbsp of fermented anchovy sauce, and 0.5 Tbsp of plum syrup. Sprinkle in a pinch of toasted sesame seeds for added nutty flavor. Mix these ingredients well with a spoon to create the base seasoning.
Step 5
Add the sliced onion and the cut chives to the prepared seasoning mixture. Gently toss them together with your hands, ensuring that the vegetables are evenly coated with the seasoning. Allow the vegetables to slightly soften as you mix.
Step 6
Finally, gently add the halved Shine Muscat grapes to the bowl with the seasoned onion and chives. Toss everything together very carefully. Be gentle to avoid crushing the grapes – you want them to retain their shape and burst with flavor! This careful mixing ensures the perfect balance of sweet grapes, crisp vegetables, and savory kimchi sauce. Enjoy your unique and delicious Shine Muscat Kimchi!
