Instructions

  1. 1 Remove discolored, bruised outer leaves of cabbage and rinse cabbage under cold water. Cut cabbage head into 2-inch pieces.
  2. 2 Divide 3 cups water among 3 bowls. Stir 1 cup sea salt into each bowl of water. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup sea salt over cabbage.
  3. 3 Place salted cabbage in the 3 bowls salted water until partially submerged; let sit 6 to 12 hours.
  4. 4 Rinse cabbage thoroughly under cold water several times. Squeeze cabbage to remove excess water. Cabbage should have a rubbery texture. Transfer cabbage to a colander or basket to thoroughly drain the cabbage, at least 2 hours.
  5. 5 Combine 3 cups water and rice flour in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Whisk mixture until a glue-like consistency, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and cool rice mixture to room temperature.
  6. 6 Combine onion, garlic, ginger, and 1 tablespoon water in a food processor; pulse until smooth, adding more water if needed.
  7. 7 Pour chile flakes into a large bowl; stir in onion-garlic mixture, cooled rice flour mixture, fish sauce, shrimp, brown sugar, and sesame seeds until well mixed. Add radish and green onions and mix well.
  8. 8 Coat each cabbage piece with chile mixture by using your hands. (Rubber gloves are highly recommended.) Pack coated cabbage leaves inside air-tight glass jars or containers; cover each tightly with a lid. Keep jars at room temperature for fermentation to occur, about 2 days. Refrigerate kimchi after the 2 days.

Instructions

  1. 1 Trim chuck roast and cut into 1 1/2-inch thick by 1 1/2-inch wide strips. Quarter onion, leaving roots intact.
  2. 2 Place beef and onion in a large pot with light scallion parts, garlic, ginger, and peppercorns. Add water and bring to a boil over high heat, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid, leaving it slightly askew. Cook, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle boil, until beef is tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Turn off heat.
  3. 3 Transfer beef to a heat-proof bowl and spoon some of the cooking liquid over top to moisten. Let rest until cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes, then shred into bite-sized pieces.
  4. 4 While the beef is cooling, strain broth over an 8-cup heat-proof measure. Discard solids and return broth to the pot. Stir in fish sauce, salt, and pepper.
  5. 5 Separate 1 egg into 2 small bowls; stir egg yolk until runny.
  6. 6 Heat 1 teaspoon canola oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Rub oil with a paper towel to coat sides and bottom of the skillet with a thin layer. Scrape egg yolk into the skillet with a rubber spatula. Remove from the heat and swirl to evenly coat the bottom of the skillet. Return to the heat and cook, undisturbed, until egg yolk is pale-yellow and the surface looks dry, about 1 minute. Turn off heat and gently flip with a spatula. Let sit for 1 minute, then transfer to a cutting board. Cut egg yolk sheet in half, then slice crosswise into thin strips. Wipe the skillet clean.
  7. 7 Prep and heat the skillet in the same manner with the remaining 1 teaspoon canola oil and a paper towel. Cook egg white until it turns opaque and bubbles form on the surface, about 45 seconds. Turn off heat and let sit until set, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently transfer to a cutting board and slice as you did for the egg yolk sheet. Set aside.
  8. 8 Return broth to a boil over high heat. Add dumplings and cook until they float and reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer over medium.
  9. 9 Slowly drizzle beaten eggs into the simmering soup. Cook until eggs set, about 5 seconds. Remove soup from heat and stir in reserved dark green scallion parts, sesame oil, and additional salt to taste.
  10. 10 Ladle soup into bowls and top with egg white and egg yolk strips. Garnish with nori.
