Making The Kimchi Sauce Mixture 겉절이양념 만들기
Step One
In a mixing bowl, add the following ingredients:
1 Tablespoon 큰술 GoChuGaRu 고춧가루 (Red Pepper Flakes)
1 Tablespoon 큰술 Fish Sauce 멸치액젓 (🌱Vegan Fish Sauce)
1 Tablespoon 큰술 Plum Extract Syrup 매실청
¼ Teaspoon 작은술 Ginger (grated) 생강
2 Garlic Cloves (grated) 마늘
½ Medium Red Onion (thin slices) 중간 붉은 양파
3 Carrot slices (julienned) 당근 조각
1 Scallion 파 (minced)
Mix well, and let it sit in room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes. This resting period allows the ingredients melt together as the vegetables release its juices and become wilted.
Prepping The Lettuce 상추 준비
Step Two
You can use your favorite lettuce. I prefer Butter Lettuce (aka Boston Lettuce) for its crunchy, sweet, and mild taste.
1 Head of Butter Lettuce 버터헤드 상추
Cut the root end off. Discard any bruised and wilted lettuce leaves. Rinse the lettuce leaves using cold water. Use a paper towel to gently pat-dry each lettuce leaf or use a salad spinner to remove the excess water.

Step Three
Make sure to taste test the Kimchi Sauce Mixture, after the 15 - 30 minute period. If you prefer a more salty taste, add just a tad more of the fish sauce. If you prefer a less salty taste, add 1 tablespoon of water. Mix well and taste again. As for the sweetness, it should be just slightly sweet.
Starting with the biggest leaf to the smallest, hand rub the kimchi sauce to the front and back of each leaf. Layer each leaf around a big plate so that you end up a big blooming flower bed of lettuce leaves. Optional: Garnish with sesame seeds.
This Fresh Lettuce Kimchi is best enjoyed when eaten right away. Like any dressed salads, after 30 minutes, it starts getting wilted and watery.
BONUS: Eating Tips
🍉During the summer months, I add a think slice on the lettuce kimchi and eat it together. It has this perfect marriage of spicy salty taste with that refreshing sweet watermelon taste.
🍚I also enjoy eating this Fresh Lettuce Kimchi with a bowl of Korean rice. So simple and SO-JUST-HITS-DA-SPOT😋
🔥I also serve this Fresh Lettuce Kimchi as a side salad when having Korean BBQ. You add a piece of the grilled meat to the lettuce kimchi, roll it up and just eat it; Like a simple Korean BBQ lettuce wrap, without using your hands to make the traditional Korean BBQ lettuce wrap. Try the Korean BBQ recipes below with this Fresh Lettuce Kimchi.
Bon appétit😋
