Korean-style carrots for the winter: the most delicious recipe


Pickled carrots “in Korean” is a favorite snack of many, but you can safely prepare it for the winter, so that, when the opportunity arises, treat guests and relatives gathered at a friendly table. Fragrant and piquant carrots are always popular at the table, so be sure to roll it. Canned carrots are stored for a long time, and this is very convenient. If you have collected a large crop of carrots in your garden, and there is absolutely no place to store it, then conservation will always help out. Jars of Korean appetizer can be put in the cellar and in the winter there is a spicy addition to the main dish.

What do we need:

  • 500 gr. large carrots;
  • 3-4 cloves of garlic;
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil;
  • 1 onion medium size;
  • 1.5 tsp seasonings for Korean vegetables;
  • 1.5 tbsp. l vinegar (9%);
  • 0.5 tsp Paprika
  • 0.5 tbsp salt;
  • 0.5 tbsp Sahara.

How to cook Korean carrots for the winter


There are a lot of options for making such an appetizer. Such a salad in the winter will be very useful as an additive for dinner or as a snack. I recommend you try cooking.

For cooking Korean carrots with seasoning, we need about 5-6 carrots, that is, about 700 grams. This recipe is designed for 4-5 servings, so you can vary the amount of carrots depending on the desired volume of ready-made salad.

Carrots must be grated on a special grater intended for Korean salads. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have it. Then just chop the carrots with thin long sticks, the thinner the better. This process, however, will take you much longer than preparing a salad using a special grater.

As a result, we get such a blank for Korean carrots with seasoning.

Peel and finely chop the garlic. You can use the “garlic squeezer”, but I do not like it because half the clove of garlic remains in it. Therefore, I prefer to cut garlic with a knife.

We put the garlic in the prepared carrots, then salt and pour the Korean carrot seasoning. I took 2 teaspoons and got a rather sharp taste and aroma of the salad. Here you are also better off relying on your taste and possibly changing the amount of spice added.

We clean and randomly cut the onion. In a small pan, pour the vegetable oil and put the onions. We need to warm the oil with onions so that it absorbs its smells. As soon as bubbles appear in the oil, we will warm the contents of the pan for 2 minutes, then leave it to stand for 5-10 minutes under the lid.

Now you need to drain the oil into the salad, throwing the onions onto a strainer or colander. We will no longer need the bow. Add the Korean style carrot seasoned with vinegar and soy sauce. We also add the latter to taste, if it is not there, you can do without it.

All ingredients complete. Hand gently mix the contents of the bowl so that all the aromas and smells soak the carrots. We remove the carrots in Korean seasoned in the refrigerator. It is enough for a salad to stand for a couple of hours. But if you make it the day before the holiday, be sure that it will only taste better!

Korean carrot seasoned ready. We spread it on a dish for serving or immediately arrange it on plates. Optionally, garnish with sesame seeds. Enjoy your meal!

Korean carrots are a spicy spicy salad, which many housewives use both as an independent snack and as an ingredient in more complex recipes of main dishes. It can be served at the festive table and in everyday life. This appetizer is easy to find in any store, or you can cook it yourself at home.

Origin of the dish

The homeland of carrots in Korean is not Korea at all, but the USSR. Korean émigrés were forced to replace familiar products with what was available in the USSR. So the “kimchi” dish, consisting of cabbage with spices, turned into carrots with spices, that is, Korean carrots.

Carrots need to be chopped on a special grater

To cook carrots in Korean, you can use a special grater or cut the vegetable manually with a knife into thin and long strips. The key to success in cooking Korean carrots at home is the use of spices.

Many housewives buy ready-made seasoning for cooking carrots in Korean. This will undoubtedly simplify the cooking process, and the taste of carrots will be very similar to a salad from the store.

Some subtleties of cooking

  • Garlic is added to the salad only after oil. Hot oil changes the color of garlic and it turns green.
  • For cooking, you need to use juicy sweet carrots, otherwise the taste of the dish will suffer and will not look like a store product. Freshness and juiciness of a salad directly depends on carrots.

Tip. It is advisable to rinse the chopped carrots well in cold water. This will help remove the bitterness and make the vegetable more sweet.

  • Cilantro is added to the dish before serving. Cilantro makes the taste more piquant.
  • You can use not only sunflower, but also cotton, sesame, corn oil. When heating oil, many housewives aromatize it with spices.
  • Sesame seeds, fried in a dry pan, are added to Korean carrots as a flavoring additive.
  • Monosodium glutamate is an industrial flavor enhancer that is added to products sold, including Korean carrots. To protect yourself and loved ones from the harmful effects of this substance, cook Korean carrots at home. It is not difficult to cook this salad at home, and it will be tastier and healthier.

How to cook carrots in Korean: video

To call this dish "Korean salad" is actually not correct. Well, they don’t cook it in either South or North Korea. “Korean Carrot” is from the Soviet Union.
  This dish is popular among “koryo-saram” (Soviet Koreans), immigrants from North Korea who moved to Russia before the revolution, and were deported under Stalin (as unreliable) to Central Asia from Primorye. As well as Sakhalin Koreans exported by Japanese colonists from South Korea to Karafuto Prefecture (the southern part of Sakhalin Island, owned by the Japanese from 1905 until the very surrender of Japan in World War II in 1945). Some Japanese Koreans did not manage to return to their homeland and still live in Russia.

In traditional Korean cuisine, it is customary to pickle fresh meat or fish using radishes or radishes and vinegar, with the addition of hot spices. But since carrots were more affordable than radishes in the USSR, it gradually replaced the usual vegetable.

And since there was a lot of stress with fresh fish and especially with fresh meat in the Soviet years, gradually one carrot remained from the components of the lettuce he (or xwe).

Among Russians, carrots cooked in this way became very popular.

There is no absolutely correct recipe for this salad. There are some rules and technological features. But in general - it all depends on individual tastes and your affections. It's like pickling cabbage. No matter how accurately you follow the recipe, you still get your taste. And as with salting cabbage, when preparing carrots, you can pick up spices to your taste.

The main ingredients of this salad are carrots, sugar, salt, vinegar, vegetable oil and red hot peppers. Moreover, Koreans use coarse pepper.

The main proportions of products for carrots in Korean. For 1 kilogram of carrots - one tablespoon of sugar, two tablespoons of 9% vinegar, a teaspoon of salt without top and 50 grams of vegetable oil.

Peel the carrots.

In no case should carrots be rubbed on a regular grater. For slicing in Korean, a special device is used that cuts carrots into long thin slices.

After the carrots are chopped, add salt, granulated sugar and vinegar. These are the components of the marinade - it is these products that allow the salad to be stored for a long time, and give the main taste. Mix, slightly rubbing the carrots with marinade. Set the salad aside for 20-30 minutes - during this time, carrots should give juice.

Then spices. The main seasoning for carrots is red hot pepper. Add it very carefully. In addition to pepper, based on your taste preferences, you can add a few grains of coriander (although this seasoning is not characteristic of Korean cuisine).

But it is best to fry the sesame seed in a dry frying pan until light brown. Or pour a few drops of sesame oil.

Then mix the salad well again. Finally, add the oil. It is customary to heat salad oil to a high temperature, but not to a boil. Pour the oil into a dry pan, warm it well and immediately pour it into the salad. Mix.

Recipe 3: Korean Carrot by Anastasia Skripkina

  • 500 g carrots
  • 500 g onion
  • 100 ml of vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vinegar 70%
  • 1 tbsp Sahara
  • 3-4 cloves of garlic
  • red hot pepper

The most popular snack! Spicy and very fragrant.
  From the specified number of ingredients, 6-8 servings are obtained.

  Coarsely chop the onion.

  Grate the carrots on a special grater or cut into long thin strips.

  Salt, mix and let stand for 20-30 minutes.

  Add sugar, red pepper to the carrots (I add 0.5 tsp).

  Mix well.

  Fry the onion in vegetable oil until dark golden.

  Then remove the onion, we do not need it.
  Remove the oil from the heat, cool slightly, add vinegar.

  Pour the carrots with hot oil, mix.

  Add garlic squeezed through the garlic press.

  Mix everything well. Before use, let stand in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.

If you are going to add chopped garlic to the salad, then do it at the very end, after the oil in the salad has cooled. Otherwise, your garlic will turn bright green, and spoil the whole appearance of carrots. Personally, I prefer Korean carrots without garlic.

We leave the finished salad overnight at room temperature, and then put it in the refrigerator. Korean carrots can be stored for up to two weeks in the main compartment of the refrigerator, preferably in a container with a tight lid.

If you don't like raw crispy carrots or don't have a few hours for the salad to properly infuse, you can slightly darken it in the oven or in a frying pan under the lid. But only a little bit, until the moment when the carrots change color and become softer. Never fry.

In this salad you can put fresh fish (and it will be pickled overnight with carrots), squid, boiled meat, asparagus, onions. Get the traditional He. Onion for salad should be cut into half rings and be sure to scald with boiling water.

On the basis of carrots in Korean, many other salads are also prepared.

It is not necessary to immediately procure a large number of snacks, only if you want to stock up on her for the winter.

During their stay in jars, carrots are soaked and saturated with aromas of specially prepared seasoning.

Korean Seasoning Presentation

With regards to the seasoning itself for Korean carrots, I’m used to doing it myself. Although on sale a lot of offers of this product. For example, Chim-Chim sauce. I always prefer DIY seasoning.

A unique recipe for Korean carrots

  • Carrots - 1.5 kg.;
  • garlic one head;
  • coriander (partially ground) - 2 tsp;
  • black pepper - 1 tsp;
  • red pepper - 1 tsp;
  • turmeric - 1 tsp;
  • vinegar 9% - 50 ml .;
  • vegetable oil - 1/3 cup;
  • salt - 1 tbsp. l .;
  • sugar - 2 tbsp. l

Did you notice that there is no onion in the ingredients of the recipe? I will cook without it. For my taste, this vegetable is superfluous in this salad. To begin with, it is best for you to purchase a special grater for cooking carrots in Korean. Approximately such a device as in this photo.

Until recently, I rubbed a vegetable on a regular grater, but this is inconvenient, and the shape is not what it really should be. We assume that you have the right kitchen tool available, which means that then we will start cooking savory foods.

How to grate carrots









  1. I wash and peel the carrots. I also act with garlic, remove the husk.
  2. I grate carrots, carrying blades along the entire length of the vegetable. The longer the “straw” will be, the more correctly prepared the recipe. I forgot to say carrots are recommended to be taken in large sizes. And it’s convenient to rub, and the length of the straw does not disappoint.
  3. Then salt and sugar grated vegetable. The final classic taste of the salad should be a bit sweet.
  4. Knead the carrots with my hand. It is necessary that juice begins to stand out.

How to make spicy carrot dressing















  1. Now I run the garlic cloves through the press. If there is no press, you can grate it on a simple grater. Add in turn everything seasoned for Korean carrots, spices and vinegar. Stir the appetizer again.
  2. Next is an important point. I heat vegetable oil in a pan.  Thanks to this action, the winter harvest will last longer and the carrots are better saturated with specific flavors. I don’t pour oil right away. I give time to cool.
  3. When it becomes such a temperature that the hand suffers, pour oil into the dishes with other products and mix them. I cover the basin with a towel. I leave the salad alone for four hours. Let more juice stand out, which I then pour into jars of carrots.

In principle, anyone who wants faster can already eat a Korean snack, bypassing this step. Well, I have yet another stage ahead.

Sterilization and clogging in salad cans for winter

Without sterilization, I did not dare to close the treats for the winter.












  1. I process jars and lids with boiling water, adding vinegar to it.
  2. I put yummy in a glass dish, tightly crushing.
  3. The remaining brine is also poured into a container with a snack.
  4. I put the containers covered with lids in a pan with water, at the bottom of which lies such a thing. I specially photographed her for you.

Is she needed for that? so that when the water boils, the jar of Korean carrots does not bounce and the marinade does not spill out of it. I sterilize 300 gram cans for 10 minutes. It is best to store salads in a small container. They opened it and immediately dragged everything from both cheeks. If your jars are larger in volume, increase the sterilization time, but no more than 5 minutes.

Next, carefully remove the jars, tighten the lid tightly, turn it over and cover it with a warm blanket. As soon as the winter conservation has cooled, I put it in a cool and dark place to wait in the wings. ! Imagine roasting beef. Then simmer the meat with the addition of soy sauce and mix with a freshly opened can of carrots. So much for the second dish. Yummy!

The Asian taste of carrots is a trifle for us. We bought Korean tricks - that’s it. The salad has become popular, we do not want to grub in Russian. Kvassim is a vegetable regularly and in winter we eat it.

Clicking the lid on the apartment will spread the good news, the jar of workpiece was opened, I ask everyone to sit down at the table.

In parting, I wish you a pleasant appetite and suggest watching a video on the preparation of a classic carrot recipe from a master of Korean cuisine.
