I have said many times before that Korean food is very seasonal. I especially look forward to the summer dishes like tangy Mul Kimchi (“water kimchi”), Oi Seobaggi (Cucumber Kimchi), and all the bright cool summer dishes that refresh in the summer heat.
One of Eun Jeong’s regular creations is a Spicy Cucumber Salad, Oi Muchim (오이 무침). I really love this stuff, and I can see it being the hit of any backyard BBQ.

Eun Jeong just made this now. I am quickly uploading the pictures and typing the recipe because she’s already started eating. Gotta go!
UPDATE 08.13.2009: Justin from Justcook nyc made this and had some success. Check it out!
YUM! I can’t wait to try this at home.
One of my all-time faves! So tasty & refreshing.
Seeing this article reminded me of something I’ve wanted to find out…
I absolutely love 부추 (thin, uncooked strips of onion with bits of gochugaru mixed in, and perhaps a dash of vinegar(?)). Anyway, when I ask my Korean friends where to get it, most of them act like they’ve never heard of 부추 and I have to give a long explanation of what it is.
Am I calling this (부추) by the wrong name or something? And, do you know how much gochugaru and any other ingredients to mix in to make it tasty? Sorry if this seems like a very simple question, but my cooking abilities normally don’t go beyond heating a pop tart in the microwave.
I had a similar experience. My friend LOVES them, so I gave it a try and they’re gross.
Absolutely not what I expected.
Thanks for posting this recipe in English~~
The recipe was easy to follow, and authentic!
I made it for my first gen korean parents, and they loved it too~
Thanks again!
Really? Cool!
My dad has a reciepe for tomato cake, but I think its German.
I’ve eaten green tea cake with tomatoes and beans on top, in Seoul. Not a fan, really.
I´ve actually eaten tomato icecream when I was at a farmer´s market in the UK. It was
actually not that bad, but I prefer a more fruity or chocolaty taste to my ice cream though.
This popsicle looks horrible though, but quite fancy looking 🙂
why there is no recipe of the tomato popsicle?
Why would you ever want to make it? Here. Mix tomato juice and more sugar than you think is acceptable. Freeze.
I can’t wait to try this out. Thanks for the easy to follow steps and wonderful photos.
I had something like this at one of them buffet resturants,,,It was with the sushi/california roles section…cold..
Had cukes, a little bit of onions…carrots..a delicious sauce..light, sweet, a touch of heat…no sesame seeds..but it had squid in it also..it was amazing..need a recipe for it hoping this is it..but some ingredients hard to find in my area…
my girlfriend gave me this recipe to try out, and I wrote about it before I knew where the recipe actually came from. so I just updated the post with a link back. i hope you like it.
