Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut cabbage into 2 inch pieces, then rinse with water.
- 2
Place cabbage in a large vegetable basket, add rock sea salt. I used my hands to toss the cabbage with the salt and rubbing it in until the cabbage feels slightly soft.
- 3
Add cool water to the mixture, enough to cover the cabbage, then leave it submerged for 6-8 hours, or overnight at room temperature.
- 4
Play music from K-drama to imagine yourself in Korea right now 🥲
- 5
While waiting, prepare the garlic and ginger mixture. You won't need this much garlic...or do you? It takes me 25 minutes to mince all the garlic.
- 6
Thereafter, drain the cabbage but save some of the brine for fermenting. Wash the cabbage thoroughly with water. Dry the cabbage with paper towels or can squeeze out excess water with your hands.
- 7
Add to the drained cabbage a mixture of: ginger, garlic, chili flakes, salt and sugar. Add scallions. Wear gloves, then mix the cabbage and mixture until well-coated. Remember to measure well, unlike me, who put too much chili flakes.
- 8
Move the cabbage into a glass container (jars, boxes, etc.), pressing down firmly for a tighter pack. Leave some space at the top, add the brine to just cover the cabbage.
- 9
Cover with a fitted lid, but do not close completely to allow air to escape. Place the container in a tray to prevent any spills. Store this in a cool and dark place. I stored mine in a cabinet away from stove and appliances.
- 10
Ferment the cabbage over 3-4 days. To check if it's fermenting, tap the lid for any bubbles that will rise to the top. Once bubbles are seen, it can be stored in the refrigerator to continue a slower fermenting process over 2 weeks.

Flavour of Korea: Simple Homemade Kimchi Flavour of Korea: Simple Homemade Kimchi
I love kimchi! But it's so expensive! This is a recipe I came up with after buying lots of different kinds of kimchi, tasting them, and then comparing the ingredients on the package. It got the approval of my Korean friends.This is a basic recipe that uses salt-fermented shrimp paste (or nam pla fish sauce.) Not soaking the Chinese cabbage properly will make the kimchi too salty. Consume it within 1 month. Feel free to add kombu seaweed to the recipe to taste. Recipe by LazyHata cookpad.japan -

I learned how to make kimchi from 2 Korean friends. Each version tasted different, so I combined the best of both to come up with my own version.Brine the Chinese cabbage in salt properly beforehand.The ingredients will keep for more than a month in the refrigerator, so even if you don't use them all up in one batch, if you make another batch before the previous one is eaten up you can alway enjoy delicious kimchi.Dice some daikon radish, salt it for a little while, and mix with these ingredients to make ggakdugi pickles. Great for kimchi hot pots! Recipe by takaya. (This recipe uses 2 heads of Chinese cabbage.) cookpad.japan -
