Ojingeo-sikhae is Gangneung's squid (Todarodes pacificus) sikhae, a traditional salt-fermented squid made with grain, red pepper and garlic. A 2012 study found the best product with 4 % sun-dried sea salt and 6 % each of chilli powder and garlic, fermented 6 days at 10 °C.
Amounts from a sourceNo full recipe is given in the abstracts read. They give percentages only (4 % sun-dried sea salt, 6 % red pepper powder, 6 % crushed garlic in the 2012 optimum) and do not state what the percentages are of or the grain type.

At a glance
Ojingeo-sikhae is Gangneung's squid (Todarodes pacificus) sikhae, a traditional salt-fermented squid made with grain, red pepper and garlic. A 2012 study found the best product with 4 % sun-dried sea salt and 6 % each of chilli powder and garlic, fermented 6 days at 10 °C. Made in 4 steps over 21 days. The longest step, ripen to the 1994 optimum, takes 15 days (Kim S.M 1994). Salt is 4 % (Kim S.R 2012). Lactic acid bacteria does most of the fermenting.
Made from squid instead of fish. The Gyeongsang squid sikhae studied by Lee et al. 2001 is a dried-squid version (see Mareun ojingeo sikhae).
Salt
4 % sun-dried sea salt gave the best squid sikhae
Fermentation
6 days at 10 °C gave the best squid sikhae
Chilli and garlic
Red pepper powder and crushed garlic both at 6 % were best
Microbes over time
In Gangneung squid sikhae, lactic acid bacteria peaked on day 15 at each temperature, and lipid oxidation (TBA) peaked on day 5
Fermentation period by chemical changes
The 1994 Gangneung study concluded that about 15 days is the best fermentation period at 10, 15 and 20 °C; pH fell with storage time at all temperatures except 5 °C
Grain and red pepper
A trial at 20 °C compared grain at 30 % and 50 % and red pepper at 5 % and 10 %; the effects on chemical changes were not significant
Garlic
A trial compared garlic at 2, 3 and 4 %; lactic acid bacteria counts and pH differed with garlic concentration early in storage but little later
No source read tests this sikhae for pathogens or toxins. In general, biogenic amines such as histamine are a recognised hazard of traditionally fermented fish, and a review (Narzary et al. 2021) cites elevated histamine and tyramine in 47 fermented fish samples made from anchovy, squid, clam and shrimp. That is a general finding, not a measurement of Gangneung squid sikhae. The method in these sources does not cook the squid. The FDA says brining and pickling do not eliminate parasites in seafood, and that freezing at -20 °C for 7 days kills them. This mix is also low in salt, since the 2012 optimum used 4 % sun-dried sea salt (the abstract does not say 4 % of what) and 10 °C. For refrigerated, reduced-oxygen-packed fish the FDA lists a water phase salt level of at least 5 %, or a pH of 5.0 or below, among the ways to stop type E C. botulinum, which can grow from 3.3 °C. A low-salt batch kept at 10 °C is not protected by salt alone, so do not ferment it at room temperature.
Kim et al. (1994) describe Kang-Nung squid sikhae as a traditional fermented fish food that survived only as a local food of the Kang-Nung district, and began a series of papers to preserve its traditional culture and develop it as a commercial product.
