Oiji – The Refreshing Pickled Cucumber
Enjoy the crisp and refreshing taste of Oiji, a traditional summer delicacy that is naturally salt-fermented rather than vinegar-pickled. The cucumbers are soaked in a brine of salt and water and left to ferment for several weeks. This slow fermentation develops a delightfully salty, slightly sour flavor with a savory depth and a satisfyingly crisp texture.
Crisp & Savory: Firm cucumber texture with a lightly salty and tangy taste.
No Vinegar Needed: Naturally fermented over time, allowing a unique depth of flavor.
Aged to Perfection: As the cucumbers ferment, they evolve in taste, gaining a deeper, savory character that only long fermentation can provide.
Versatile & Light: Enjoy as a side dish, in kimbap or rolls, sliced into cold noodles or soups, or as a topping for rice bowls.
A Korean Tradition: In Korea, Oiji is often thinly sliced and mixed with a dash of gochugaru (red pepper flakes), minced garlic, sesame seeds, and a drop of sesame oil to make a delicious Oiji muchim (seasoned pickled cucumber). It’s also a summer favorite to serve with a bowl of ice water and rice — a simple yet revitalizing way to beat the summer heat and soothe the palate.
Elevate your Korean meals with Oiji, a timeless favorite that refreshes the palate and adds a savory, crisp bite to every bite!
