STEP 1/15
Prepare white cucumbers for pickling.
You have to choose a thin and appropriate length so that there are not many seeds and it is suitable for pickles.
STEP 2/15
Soak cucumbers in water mixed with vinegar for a while and wash them by rubbing them with your hands.
STEP 3/15
Be careful because rubbing with a rough sponge may cause scratches and become soft.
STEP 4/15
Drain the clean cucumber.
STEP 5/15
Wipe the remaining water completely with a clean towel.
STEP 6/15
Put them in a suitable container one by one.
STEP 7/15
First, pour vinegar and sprinkle salt and sugar evenly on top.
STEP 8/15
Starch syrup, rice wine, cooking wine, or soju are also available. Put it in as much as you want and keep it in a cool veranda or room temperature with the lid closed.
STEP 9/15
I leave it for about three days (as of April) in the current weather. If the temperature goes up, it can ripen quickly, so take a look at it once in a while.
STEP 10/15
It's been three days. The top is still blue, but the cucumber at the bottom is yellow. There's a lot of water coming out of the cucumber.
STEP 11/15
Flip it over. Please change it.
STEP 12/15
Cheongyang chili pepper or Vietnamese chili pepper
STEP 13/15
When it is moist, add the spicy peppers to taste
It makes the cucumber taste much better.
STEP 14/15
There's a lot of water, so you have to press it with a heavy one from now on. Cover it like this and cook it at room temperature for another days.
STEP 15/15
It's been five days. It's cooked well enough to eat.
The amount has decreased a lot, so you can put it in a small container and refrigerate it. It's not salty, so it's a perfect taste to take it out as it is and eat it with cold soup or seasoned salad.
It's based on 200ml measuring cup.
