Hello Maangchi
So nice to see you and watch your videos again. Many, many thanks for teaching us Korean cooking in such an honest and easy to follow fun way! This one about Maechil is already 2 years old. I hope your book is still available now in 2018?
I actually tried making the extract a couple of years ago but left the plums for longer than 3 mths, maybe 5 or 6? I was unsure how long to leave them in the bottle for. Anyway, at the end of that time the liquid that came out was actually really quite strong, schnapps like. My husband and friends loved this accidental creation. Is there any advantage to taking the fruit out after 100 days and adding alcohol eg soju to the fruit extract, when the alcohol develops anyway by itself after a longer time? What is the difference in result? Cheers Maangchi

Armenians eat that just like that without making it into anything. We like to eat it fresh in the summer before it turns into an apricot. Its my favorite thing, cant find a lot of them in USA, but found it at some Asian markets on yelp so will check it out next spring.

I have plums that are green on my tree right now and I would like to make this! But my plums are not Korean apricot plums. They are just regular plums that I use for jam. Does anyone know if I can still use this kind of plum? Does it need to be apricot plums?

Hi! Made this, but a couple of ants got into the syrup. They died and, as far as I can tell, no more than 2 or 3 made it in and I have sealed it more tightly. My question is, will this ruin the final product? Or should I be okay?

Hello Maangchi. can we use this method for other fruits like Berries or plum or binahong or even dry omija? because there's no fresh omija sell in my country, so I have to buy dry omija online. So sad

Can I make the pickles (maesi-jangajji) directly from the plums of the syrup? because I don't drink liquor and neither does anyone in my family so I can't make the measilju (I'm muslim.

I would LOVE to try and make this for my father for his birthday in June, but i can't find Soju, is there anything else i can use instead? Is it very different from Sake?
