Red bean porridge — winter solstice tradition
How to Make Patjuk (Traditional & Healthy Version)
Patjuk, also known as Korean Red Bean Porridge, is a beloved traditional dish often enjoyed during the cold winter months in Korea. This wholesome rice porridge is made primarily from adzuki beans (pat) and glutinous rice, resulting in a comforting, slightly sweet, and earthy bowl of warmth. Patjuk is particularly cherished during Dongji (Korean winter solstice), where it symbolizes protection and health. The dish is vegan and naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for a variety of dietary preferences. Patjuk’s unique flavor comes from the slow simmering of red beans, which are then pureed to create a creamy base. Small rice flour balls called saealsim are often added for texture and a hint of chewiness. Traditionally, Patjuk is enjoyed as a main meal, accompanied by a selection of banchan (side dishes) and sometimes a side of fermented kimchi, balancing the mild porridge with spicy, probiotic-rich flavors. Its simplicity, warmth, and cultural significance make Patjuk an excellent choice for anyone seeking an authentic, healthy Korean meal.

Boil beans twice, discarding the first water to reduce bitterness.
