In Japan, there is a popular product of bottled sauce called ‘Kimchi No Moto’. You can make an instant Kimchi flavoured salad by dressing Vegetables with this sauce, OR you can use the sauce for dipping sauce and marinade. I loved the sauce and I missed it so much after I moved to Australia, then I started making this mock ‘Kimchi No Moto’. The original sauce is very salty, but you can alter the saltiness of the sauce to suit your taste.
