If you like kimchi jjigae (stew), try this kimchi jjim (braised kimchi). Slow cooked with a small amount of liquid and fatty pork, braised kimchi is tender and packed with flavors.
Add to the pot with the meat. Add the kimchi juice, water (or broth), and gochugaru. Bring it to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low. Simmer, covered.
