    Kimchi is a Korean dish made from napa cabbage, chili flakes, garlic, ginger, and fish sauce. It’s spicy, tangy, and full of flavor, thanks to the fermentation process. Kimchi is usually served as a side dish but can also be added to other meals. It’s not only tasty but also good for your digestion because of the probiotics it contains. It’s a key part of Korean cuisine and a must-try for anyone who loves bold flavors! Enjoy!

    I wanted to make a spicy but tasty kimchi jjiage.The secret to its mildness is… stir-fried onion and Chinese cabbage. Using butter makes the soup very mild (⌒～⌒).Don't overcook the Chinese chives. Recipe by noeruchi

    Expats: If You Have Chinese Cabbage, Let's Make Kimchi Expats: If You Have Chinese Cabbage, Let's Make Kimchi

    I researched how to make kimchi on a lot of recipe sites. I can't get a hold of fermented krill paste, so it's omitted. The more I made this, the easier it got.If you mix in Chinese chives and salt-fermented squid, it will be even more delicious. I used 2 1.5 kg cabbages this time, which needed a lot of ingredients. Be sure to use the amount of salt specified. If you use less, the cabbage may rot. Take care not to contaminate the cabbage when you take it out. I divided it into two batches, but one went bad.

    I absolutely love kimchi and can eat it with every meal. Store-bought kimchi is quite expensive, but making it at home isn't too costly, so if you're willing to spend an afternoon making it, you can have enough to last almost a month. I've made kimchi many times, but this is the recipe I use most often!The time for soaking the napa cabbage in salt water is included in the total cooking time!Make sure to prepare a large container with a tight-fitting lid to store the kimchi. To prevent it from becoming too sour, I open the container once a week to take out a portion to use. Avoid opening the container frequently.Depending on the temperature, the fermentation speed of the kimchi can vary, so you can adjust the amount of rice flour accordingly. Too much rice flour will cause it to ferment very quickly!

    Homemade Radish Kimchi Homemade Radish Kimchi

    If you love kimchi but want something extra crunchy, Radish Kimchi (Kkakdugi, 깍두기) is a great choice! The crisp radish soaks up all the spicy, garlicky flavors as it ferments, making it super refreshing and addictive. It’s easy to make and goes perfectly with rice, stews, or even on its own. The best part? It gets better with time! Enjoy!
