Jangajji (장아찌) orpickled vegetables is a type ofbanchan (side dish) made bypickling vegetables.[1][2] Unlikekimchi,jangajji is non-fermented vegetables, usually pickled insoy sauce,soybean paste, orchili paste.[3][4]Jangajji dishes are usually preserved for a long period of time, and served with a drizzle ofsesame oil.[5] Preserved foods likejangajji were developed to attain a certain level of vegetable consumption during the long, harsh winters on theKorean peninsula.[6]
The wordjangajji (장아찌) is derived from (Middle Korean:쟈ᇰ앳디히,romanized: ccyangaistihi).[a][2] The Middle Korean is believed to have come fromChinese:酱瓜;pinyin:jiàngguā, 'pickled cucumber, melon or gourd'. The suffix -찌 (cci) may originate fromChinese:漬;pinyin:zì 'to marinate or soak something'.[7] Alternatively, the ending -찌 (cci) may represent the natural mutation of -ㅅ디히 (-stihi) to -ㅅ지이 (sci'i), finally becoming -찌 (cci).[7]
Main ingredients vary according to region and temperature. Some examples are greengarlic, garlic scapes,radish,cucumber,chili pepper leaves,chamoe,perilla leaves, anddeodeok.[8]Jangajji is usually pickled insoy sauce,soybean paste, orchili paste, butbrine and dilutedvinegar can also be used as the pickling liquid.[8] Usually, vegetables are slightly dried or salted to prevent the addition of surplus moisture to the condiment. When served,jangajji is cut, then seasoned withsesame oil, sugar, and toasted sesame seed powder.[9]
