Apricot Jangajji – June 2024

I really wanted to bring you back a fruit-based kimchi this summer. All the recipes I’m confident with would not travel so well so I had a good think in 2020 and decided that I would make a Jangajji, aka a Korean pickle.

After a brainstorming session with a friend of mine, we ended up with this brilliant idea : Apricot Jangajji ! Sliced apricots preserved in sugar, then drained and mixed in a sauce that embodies the perfect alliance of sweet and spicy. Totally mouthwatering.

Traditionally, this Jangajji would be made with Korean green plums (Maesil), but these are quite impossible to find in London.

You loved it so much in 2020 and 2021 that I wanted to bring it back this year.

How to eat : you can eat this kind of spicy Jangajji quite simply, with freshly steamed white rice. Just a small piece of sweet and spicy apricot on top of a spoonful of rice. It works also beautifully with grilled pork belly wraps, Korean BBQ style. No cooking required, it’s a pickle.
