CUBED PICKLED RADISH

DANMUJI

Any reputable Korean fried chicken joint will provide these refreshing sweet pickles to offset their fried offerings. Some people like to include lemon-lime soda when pickling, but I don’t think it needs it. It’s an essential accompaniment to Ultimate KFC.

Korean pickled radish

Ingredients

 MAKES ABOUT 1 LITRE (13⁄4 PINTS)

  • 120 ml (4 fl oz) rice vinegar
  • 100 g (31⁄2 oz) caster sugar

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageHappy 84th birthday daddy!! 

My father was born in 1939 in Chongju, a city in what is now in North Korea. He and his family (8 brothers and sisters) fled south during the war and he grew up as a refugee on Jeju island.  He still remembers asking American soldiers for “bonbons” as a child. Somehow he made it to Seoul National University medical school through hard work and determination. He immigrated to the USA to do his internship and residency and practiced as a psychiatrist, until retiring at 75. 
He raised two daughter (me and my sis!) with my mom and is a source of constant inspiration for us both to this day. At 84 years old he is still super healthy, doesn’t take any medicine (unheard of at his age!) and still going strong in every way. 

I love you daddy so much!  Happy happy birthday!  Xx❤️❤️ I’ll always be your little girl! ❤️❤️
