This is the Hannong Kimchi Seasoned Dried Radish, a Korean banchan known as mumallaengi muchim. The ingredients included dried radish, chilli powder, chilli paste, soy sauce, garlic, fish sauce, and corn syrup.

The banchan had a fiery red hue and a spicy-sweet aroma. Upon tasting, the dried radish strips delivered a springy crunch, with their flavour largely dominated by the sauce. The garlicky blend of soy and fish sauce provided a deeply savoury taste, complemented by a mild heat from the chilli. This heat built to an enjoyable intensity mid-bite before tapering off with a noticeable sweetness that tempered the heat in the finish. The sauce offered a clearer flavour profile compared to fermented kimchi, as it lacked the characteristic funkiness. Overall, this banchan was enjoyable on its own but would pair well with rice and meat.
