How to: Sikhye | The Korean Rice Drink!

[@serybs]

one of my professors brought us sikhye and fried chicken in college for our finals and he was my favorite professor for sure 😂 so delicious!

[@FutureNeighbor]

That sounds like the perfect combation heh! What a cool professor

[@nagavyshnavi631]

Sarah you're so lucky.

[@riamunoz-licup3510]

Omg! I made this and gave some to my Korean neighbor and she loved it. Your recipes and so good and easy to follow. Thanks so much!!!

[@fancynancy6467]

Thank you! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and yes, lets bring in a happy and better New Year! Thanks guys!

[@FutureNeighbor]

Yes, Merry Christmas to you too Nancy!!

[@HappyTummyRJ]

Awwwww sikhye is so good, it has a sweet flavor so it's a good choice to have it with less sweet things! Or it is good to have it as dessert with rice cakes ! It would be perfect!

[@george-qz9un]

Ahh I love this drink!!! Never knew what it was called though lol, always called it the "Korean sweet water" 😂

[@FutureNeighbor]

Haha happy you do! Know you know the name shik-heh!

[@janiceinFL]

Daniel! You didn't say this was so addictive! I made a batch on Sunday, today is Tuesday and if the approx 3L I ended up with, it's almost gone, and it's just ME drinking it! Lol! (It's sooo good chilled to a slush!) Time for another batch!

[@960027079]

I followed your recipe (using a crockpot) and it is beautiful and tasty! Thank you for teaching me. This was one of my favorite things from Korea, but I hate the canned ones. Being able to make it now is awesome!

[@pjmbyul]

The first time my family and I had this at a restaurant, my dad told the waiter (in a good way) that it tastes like the leftover milk at the bottom of a finished bowl of cereal. The waiter was dumbfounded and looked like he'd just been told the answer to the universe, lmao, he'd never thought of sikhye like that before.

[@annieho9233]

Thanks, Daniel & Katie! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you too. Fighting!!

[@FutureNeighbor]

Merry Xmas to you too Annie!! Fighting for the New Year 🙃

[@lindapachia101]

Finally! 😭 You made it look so easy! I’m going to give this a try!

[@clairechtan9012]

[@miyacoxlong2343]

[@chuck430]

[@ch0c0p1nk]

Thank you for this recipe! You make me feel confident in making it at home because you explained everything so well. I wish more happy moment for this channel in the coming year!

[@happytrails1963]

Sounds awesome, I love rice but never had this before. Really makes me want to give it a try. Thanks for the video and be safe!

[@Lisa-ij6tt]

I love this drink , never knew how to make it. Thanks for the video

[@gracehc9356]

Yum!! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@chibichecker]

This is perfect, and just in time since I was thinking about making this from scratch!

[@Liz17Garcia]

I work on NYC and I usually go to 32nd street to eat Korean food and also to the Korean market. I’ve been always served with sikhe and I tried it but I never eat it. From now on, I’ll eat it out of respect for the hard work. ☺️🥰

[@hkalsa7200]

This is a great tutorial, thanks! I’ve always wanted to make it and you made it look doable 👍🏼⭐️

[@CindyMay]

So making this this weekend!!! Update… made this last night and just now tried it and wow! Super yummy, now I can enjoy Sikhye at home. ☺️ Cz my local Korean restaurant stopped serving Sikhye for some reason ☹️

[@cnevett6854]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year , Katie and Danyual. Thank you for all the videos!

[@FutureNeighbor]

Merry Christmas & New Years to you too C!! Much love from Korea ;-)

[@christineschexnayder9582]

Going to try this!

[@momsterwong9088]

I'm finally making Sikhye...you made it so easy to follow, to get every drop of barley milk, I used cheese cloth. Right now it's in my slow cooker so I can't wait to try it ...sigh...but have to wait over 8hrs

[@riya-so5tp]

Happy New Year and Happy Holidays to both. Hope the new year brings lots happiness and Yummy and tasty recipes. 💕💕💕 Lots of love and good wishes. India, Assam❤❤❤

[@FutureNeighbor]

Yes, Happy Holidays to you too Riya! Much love from Korea 🕺

[@wittymum]

Ahh, now I know what's it called and how it's made. I had this everytime at Korean restaurants in Asia but in California, they don't serve it - it seems like a lot of trouble to make it though... I miss the taste of it.... Thank you so much for sharing ! Wishing you guys happy and healthy and successful 2021 !

[@kichakennamer1057]

Thank you so much and merry Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR! HERE'S TO A BETTER 2021!

Perfectly guided on ...how to 👌🥰 Happy Christmas both.much love sent,wish you both peace 🎄🎄🙏🏻

[@tshelley4232]

Last week I went to a Korean Restraunt near Atlanta Georgia and after my meal they gave me a bowl of this. It had bits of rice floating around but the liquid was whiter in color. Served very chilled. Delicious! Have you ever made Makeolli, korean rice beer? I’ve tried several times and it came out okay. The yeast I used was called nuruk.

[@FutureNeighbor]

Yes, thats right! Nuruk - I tried once to Makgeolli but the flavor came out "interesting"... didn't try again... but its a nice project to master!

[@FeedMeGoodChefNunu]

Omg you are finally making my suggestion I bloody love sikhye it's my favourite drink!!

[@jpark2568]

Merry Christmas to you and your family! Thank you for always sharing such great content and offering all your subscribers great recipes!!

[@dianedo8314]

Luv u guys.. luv your cooking style and recipes! I love this and I enjoy them when Korean restaurants offer it after our meal! I will definitely make this over Christmas!! Merry Christmas from Texas!

[@FutureNeighbor]

Merry Christmas to you Diane from Korea ;-)

[@CynariGames]

merry christmas and a happy new year! i hope 2021 is a much better year! :) 💜

[@27Chelle07]

Question for ya, what's the Korean new year's eve and new year day meals consist of? I'd like a menu for what you are going to have. And what is your tradition for celebration of the new year.

[@kimchikat2169]

The last Potcast was so nice again! And quite shocking, indeed! One really starts doubting the integrity of police force! This is a very interesting recipe! I wish for you to have a merry Christmas and a swell an healthy New Year and I truely hope your wedding plans will succeed!

[@FutureNeighbor]

Ah, that "police" story was a good way to wrap up 2020 heh 😱 Glad that you're listening along Kat!! We wish you a Merry, Merry Christmas from Korea ;-)

[@chayanknightheart]

Thank you ...God Bless you good beautiful people ❤❤❤❤❤

[@Bear-cm1vl]

You mentioned "no powders"... Is there an instant version of this to try so I know what mine should taste like?

[@clivestaples244]

Good bye dont ever want to see you again.😁 perfect sentiment for 2020. Merry christmas and an incredible new year ro you and your wife.🎄🍾

[@FutureNeighbor]

Yes, Merry Xmas to you too - much love from Korea!!

[@caterpillar590]

First time watching your vid and I'm impressed by your really good pronunciation 😯 I watched because I'm curious that why this drink can be a halal drink. Turn out I want to try this but it's hard to find malt/ barley in my country 😅

[@hillelawaskar5791]

Looks delicious..

[@docimma]

Awesome recipe

[@icecube1497]

[@chvdu]

I remember having this in a Koream restaurant where my former boss brought me. I always wondered what that was made of.

[@FutureNeighbor]

They served it for dessert right? Good way to finish a meal.

[@tjf42193]

Looks like my local Korean market has , fine or whole barley malt which one should i get ?

[@blushingbiddies]

Made this and it hits the spot for a little sweet craving after dinner! Outta curiosity, how long will the drink keep in the fridge?? Little nervous if I should be drinking it faster XD

[@thgthgthg]

Thanks for the video. Just like to ask, can I use pearl barley for making sikhye?

[@TeaGardens]

Love shikhye, I tried making it before but used uncooked rice 😬 it turned into congee

[@haroldjamesiyo9377]

My favorite drinks in Korea.

[@Superr143]

Instead of buying malt powder , can we roast the barley and blend it into a fine powder?

[@jdavidwoo]

awesome!! would love to have some with osam bulgogi, next recipe maybe?

[@YummyFoodSecrets1]

👍💞💖🤝💟❤

[@daverson3834]

Is there anything that can be done with the leftover barley that you 'milked' ?

[@lisahinton9682]

Daverson, I wondered the same. I make homemade dogfood and I think it could be a component, though I'm not 100% sure.

[@daverson3834]

[@madisonm9896]

I’ve always wanted to try sikhye!!! I want to try a tried and true one from Korea (if you guys can recommend some) before I make my own🥰

[@FutureNeighbor]

Yes! There is a one by Paldo that comes in a small yellow can - I like to get it from time to time at the convenience marts here in Korea.

[@KimAraLand]

It came again, and here i am again too

[@deniellebonaparte6137]

She's so cute 🤗❤️

[@TheCratsky]

I love this drink! Need to be careful though. One 200mL cup of shikye is approx 200 calories so it's a calorie dense beverage. The same amount of soft drink is approx 100 calories in comparison. It's so tasty though. Eeeaahhhh.

[@bsclaire]

I have a Thermomix and there is a fermentation mode in it. Can I do that instead of keeping it warm in the rice cooker for it to ferment?

[@nimsway8427]

Omg this is so much work :) but I love to try this once.

[@bajka91]

Marry Christmas!

[@FutureNeighbor]

Thanks Weronika! Merry Christmas to you too!

[@hermic5623]

Ahh I want some now 😭😭

[@JL_hahaha0303]

If you cook the rice it would turn into a delicious sikhye porridge 😂❤

[@gutsen9930]

How many times I have mixed this up with the finger washing bowl.

[@AimlessSky]

Have not tasted sikhye before, but it does vaguely look similarly to another drink called barley water. I wonder if the two taste similar as well?

[@Bear-cm1vl]

What country is barley water from, Sky?

[@AimlessSky]

@@Bear-cm1vl Not entirely sure. But it is common in South-east asia.

[@Leogoesliquorstore]

it reminds me of the chilean mote con huesillos

[@FutureNeighbor]

Just Googled it - looks like a drink I would like to try!!

[@daisylianmasam8367]

How long can we keep it? I mean the shelf life?

[@elspink]

Salud, cheers, 위하여

[@JayJay-st1jj]

Can i use wheat malt too?

[@nicholaswhorley8343]

I like how you call everyone 'neighbors'. Do a video on 된장찌개 if you haven't yet.

[@ayameg143]

What is the shelf life of this?

[@miken9484]

Wouldn’t it easier to squeeze the liquid through a cheese cloth ?

[@Bear-cm1vl]

Cheese cloth separates too easily and the malt fibers would escape, although a nut milk bag or another fine fiber bag would work, preferably one that doesn't absorb as much liquid.

[@itspribanerjee]

WOW

[@JS-vp6wg]

What would happen in you put uncooked rice

[@소설러슈크림]

The taste of using all water, not the bottoms, will be better

[@KD-sg1ig]

reminds me of amazake

[@diva555sg]

What is the difference between rice punch & mageoli?

[@elmoroque]

Rice punch is sweet drink - no alcohol, kids friendly. Makgeoli is alcohol - only for the grown ups lol.

[@annainspain5176]

Rice punch is not alcoholic.

[@susank.4945]

Ok, I like this one but I like the cinnamon tasting one better.

[@lalalania4395]

is sikhye intoxicating? I mean, can it make you tipsy or drunk? Coz I'm a muslim and I really want to drink sikhye. But there are lots of article on internet said that sikhye is a liquor.

[@julieshin]

no it is not. it’s just a sweet drink. i am korean and have had many cups of sikhye in a sitting so you can trust me. makgeoli (rice wine) is intoxicating, but not this.

[@shennanoona7917]

Daniel you look really handsome today

[@taheelur1]

[@digzonsega917]

Yup i just called it korean horchata

[@samandy24]

Happy Holidays, guys! And yes!!! Let's all wipe 2020 from our memories haha. But let's all still be safe. I do wish this video was released 2 days ago when I made my trip to a Korean mart. I could have bought the barley malt and tried this! I'm so curious about the taste! ★_★

Merry Christmas to you too!!

Who came here after black pink jimjibang klin tour to know what is sikhye####rose

[@jakemcavoy2554]

The liquid should be clear instead.

[@JaneDoe-tm2ex]

I fucking loooove 식혜 but I feel like it’s too much work. I just buy it from 떡집s or in the liters from the grocery store.

[@FutureNeighbor]

yes I share your sentiment heh - the ones from 떡집s are so goood

[@zenastronomy]

is this alcoholic fermented?

[@julieshin]

no it is not. sikhye is just a sweet drink. makgeoli (rice wine) is alcoholic fermented.
