Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

  1. Cut the napa cabbage, kohlrabi, cucumber, and carrot into thin square slices (nabak shape).
  2. Cut the lemon into ginkgo-leaf shapes (quarter slices), slice the red chili pepper diagonally, and cut the thin scallions into 1.5 cm lengths.
  3. Make a sweet vinegar liquid with the vinegar, sugar, and omija syrup.
  4. Add the vegetables, lemon, chili pepper, and thin scallions to the sweet vinegar liquid and let it mature.
  5. After maturing, check the color and add more omija syrup.
  6. Serve the matured omija nabak kimchi in a bowl.
💡 TipThe tangy-sweetness of the omija extract and vinegar gives flavor without salt.
