Sikhye is a boundary entry. Cooked rice is held warm in malt water so the malt's own enzymes turn its starch into sugar; no microbes are needed, and the drink is boiled and chilled. Andong sikhye is the true ferment of the family. Rice, radish, ginger and red pepper in malt water are fermented cold by lactic acid bacteria into a red, sour, spicy drink. Made in 5 steps over 6.2 h – 7.2 h. The longest step, hold rice in malt water warm until the grains float, takes 3–4 h (An Y.-H 2011) and runs at 60–70 °C (An Y.-H 2011). Lactic acid bacteria in Andong sikhye; rod-shaped Lactobacillus lead early, then cocci (Streptococcus) take over; L. delbrueckii chosen as the best starter in one study does most of the fermenting.
Amounts from a sourceLaboratory batch of standard sikhye from a 2011 Korean study, giving about 3 L of malt liquid. Andong sikhye uses glutinous rice, malt, radish, water, ginger and red pepper; its amounts are not given here because the study that fixes them could not be opened.

What makes this one different
Standard sikhye is sweetened by malt enzymes alone, like amazake made with malt instead of koji, and is boiled before any microbes can act. Andong sikhye goes further. Radish, ginger and red pepper are added and the drink is left to ferment cold, so lactic acid bacteria make it sour, red and spicy.
Andong sikhyeGlutinous rice, malt water, sliced radish, ginger and red pepper powder fermented cold (5 °C in one study). pH falls to 4.20 by day 2 and 3.90 by day 20 of storage; flavour is judged best around day 2–3.
Hobak-sikhyeMade with pumpkin.
Industrial sikhyeAdded amylases turn the starch almost all to glucose and fructose instead of maltose.
Safety
Boiling stops the malt enzymes but does not kill Bacillus cereus spores, which can survive in sikhye; keep it refrigerated. Andong sikhye is soured to pH 4.06–4.36 and kept at 4–5 °C.
Hazards the sources name: Bacillus cereus spores, which survive ordinary heating of sikhye (D at 95 °C of 2.8–4.9 min).
A late-19th-century cookbook, the Siuijeonseo, describes rice saccharified with wheat malt water and mixed with yuja as sikhye. Andong sikhye probably took its present form after red pepper came into wide use in Korea in the second half of the 18th century. It is related to so-sikhae and fish sikhae of the east coast, which add salt, garlic or fish.
