Oi-sobagi with Cucumbers & Kimchi

【 youtu.be/3-D2GneKPUs 】Korean cucumber kimchi is an amazing side dish that is easy and fast to make. Cucumber will cool you down to the heart, and you will be addicted to the taste after one bite!

Generally speaking, cucumber kimchi does not hold up texturally as well as Napa cabbage kimchi, and you'll find that it begins to go soggy more quickly. Best to make a smaller batch (you can halve this recipe) if you don't think you can eat it within 2 to 3 weeks because there just aren't as many good uses for overripe cucumber kimchi as with the Napa cabbage kind.A common question:HOW RIPE DOES THE KIMCHI HAVE TO BE BEFORE I REFRIGERATE/EAT IT?You can eat the kimchi whenever you want. Fresh, just after it's been made, all the way up to when it's so incredibly old, ripe and stinky you could choke out a subway system by placing an open jar in one of the vents. It remains safe for human consumption for A VERY LONG TIME.But as to when to refrigerate, just go out once a day every day to taste a piece, and when it gets to the ripeness you like, stick it in the fridge. It'll continue to ripen, but slowly.P.S. Yes, you do see a few pieces of turnip in there. I think I had one or two that needed to be used up on the day I made this batch. ;)

Yum! can't wait to taste it :hungry

This is even easier than overnight pickles, maybe.It's kind of difficult to get a hold of saeujeot (salted fermented krill that is usually used to make kimchi) but you can make kimchi easily using familiar, easy to get ingredients. Why not give it a go?Salt, garlic, dried shrimp, dried shredded squid, and chili pepper.By varying the amounts of these ingredients, you can adjust the taste in any way you like.Korean chili pepper is not that spicy hot - it has a sweet fragrance.Adjust the amounts to create the kimchi that's suited to you.

I had this in a restaurant and it was so tasty, I recreated it in my own style!!Adjust the amount of garlic and red chili if you don't like them. Recipe by Swan7724

I added sesame oil to kimchi to give it some extra flavor and fragrance. It was too delicious to eat by itself, so I put it on tofu.My family loves this tofu! You won't be able to stop eating it.The key is to make sure to drain the tofu. I recommend you put the tofu in a bamboo basket and put it in a fridge. You can use regular or soft tofu.

This is a recipe using a cloudy white mul kimchi juice. I've been told that traditionally it was made with the leftover water from washing rice. People would use it for cooking rather than waste it. This is my take on a recipe I learned over 20 years ago from someone who used to work at a restaurant in South Korea.The water produced from the vegetables you've salted is their juice, so use that too in the brine. In Step 2, don't use salt when you're making the brine. You can adjust the salt content later. Sugar is necessary for helping the fermentation process, so be sure to add it.

This is my take on a recipe I learned over 20 years ago from someone who used to work at a restaurant in South Korea.The water released from the vegetables you've salted is essentially their juice, so we use that too in the brine, but in this case we won't use it from the eggplant because of its harsh taste. After you've wrung out a good amount of liquid, then use it for pickling. The color of the eggplant will worsen with every day that passes. Sugar is necessary to help the fermentation process, so please be sure to add it. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

Cabbage rolls with a Korean twist! Kimchi for the cabbage, and a kimchi jjigae inspired broth for the sauce. These were so good, I did not have any leftovers. Wear food safe gloves when assembling so you don’t stain your hands like I did :,)

I wanted to use the bulbs of the green onions in something. In the end I tried making an imitation of a dish that I had seen in a Korean supermarket and came up with this simple kimchi.The bulbs of the green onions that I used are far bigger than those you usually find in a supermarket, they were about the size of mini-onions. If you're using small green onions, then you just need to boil them for 2-3 minutes. I used the Momoya brand kimchi sauce. Recipe by Kourin

I made this so I could enjoy all of my favorite in one dish!The most important point is to use sweet tomatoes, tasty kimchi and good tofu. If your tomato is not sweet enough just add a little sugar. If you chill both the sauce and the tofu well, it'll be perfect. Recipe by Asamato

Sesame and avocado match very well with kimchi 😄

I'm not sure if this is a real recipe...it's just something I make when I'm tired. The sticky sliminess from the natto and okra is great. It's easy and delicous!Prepare your soft-poached eggs in advance. The gochujang I used this time was a gift, and it was so good! By putting on this gochujang sauce the dish becomes so much tastier.

Fermentation is a fascinating process where tiny living organisms eat away at sugars and convert them into alcohol.It's incredibly simple and once you learn it, you'll be able to explore all kinds of fermented foods like pickles, beer, cheese, bread and sauerkraut.Get ready to get your hands salty! We're going to make some kimchi. This recipe is slightly modified from a traditional kimchi recipe. Check out more of our hacks at http://letsfeast.com/.

I fell in love with kimchi but always in doubt whether it's halal or not. Found a video by korean cook, maangachi. Her portion is quite big, so i had reduced the measurement coz i just do it for 1 cabbage only

This is one of the most difficult recipes in the world! If you stock tofu (either silken or firm) in your flidge, your tummy gonna be happier with one more side dish which is high in protein and law calorie.

Whenever I begin dieting, I end up preparing this somewhat diet-unfriendly dish...If you're worried about the excess moisture in the tofu ruining the dish, drain it.Since the pork is cooked in sesame oil, it should have a bit of flavor, but add soy sauce, sake, sugar, mirin, etc. I try not to add anything else since I eat this while I'm on diet.

Fermented food, such as kimchi, is known to promote healthy gut and aids in digestion especially for those who are on keto/low carb diet. Hence, this kimchi chicken recipe does just that and it is tasty and easy to make in the air fryer!

In Korea, this dish called "ojingeo bokkum", is not, in the true sense of the word, a "kimchi" dish. I had it served to me as a child, and I never forgot the taste. As an adult, when I realized it was ojingeo bokkum, I was thrilled! Ever since, I've been enjoy it homemade.It's delicious even without the gochujang. It stores well in the refrigerator for about a week; after that, the water and oil start to separate. When your appetite is weak, it may taste salty, so adjust the taste to your liking.

It is relatively easy.You may add any vegetables you want and the ingredients stated are optional.Only kimchi is essential :)

Since I love noodle dishes with soy-milk-based soup, I've tried making many dishes. But this is THE dish for cold noodles. This might seem like the ultimate lazy-person's recipe, but it's so good!I've tried this with somen noodles, but the udon was a better match for some reason. It's so delicious, when all you really do is combine the soy milk with mentsuyu. We use "Somi" brand's mentsuyu at our house. If you have thin udon noodles, you can make this dish in 5 minutes. It's a super easy-to-make dish. Recipe by moritaya

This has become frequently cooked in our house! Super simple and full of flavor. The eggs add enough protein to make this hearty enough for a week night meal and the creamy yolk running through the rice gives the perfect amount of richness to cut through the spicy kimchi.

This recipe is something I created to save myself from consuming tons of calories, this delicious and fast easy to build recipe is sure to be a hit at lunch or dinner! Super filling with lots of flavor !

I recently become a fan of a korean drama and I noticed that they have this dish in every meals. So I thought that it must be really good if they can eat it daily. I'm not wrong! Kimchi soup are really delicious! I used to have my korean food fix at korean restaurant around town and its not cheap. So I google how to make a simple kimchi Soup. And voila! Here it is. I replaced the korean hot pepper sauce with Baba's chilli Powder instead. Taste just fineeee!

It'd been a while since I'd had some kkakdugi, so I wanted to make some at home!When soaking the daikon radish in the salt, you could also add a chili pepper, kombu, etc. Recipe by pabotvxq

When you have a can of sardines and are thinking of a way to put a new (spicy) twist to it

Hot pot is excellent for cold nights. Kimchi hot pot is my favorite dish, and I wanted to make it with ingredients in my fridge..I learned from a Korean friend that the point of kimchi hot pot is to stir fry the kimchi with sesame oil before adding the soup ingredients. Recipe by meg115

I made this at my daughter's request.Since the spice of red chili powder varies depending on the type, be sure to check the taste while seasoning. The yangnyeom from Step 14 is enough for 3-4 daikon radishes worth of kkakdugi. Store the leftover yangnyeom in the freezer, then the next time you make kkakdugi, all you have to do is pickle the daikon. Recipe by kanako8224

I replaced the main dish of my meals with this when I was on a short-term diet before my wedding. I lost tons of weight!This is so easy, you can make this in five minutes.Adjust the amount of kimchi to your liking.For those who prefer a stronger flavor, it's delicious if you add some soy sauce at the end. For those who don't like moist foods, use a paper towel to remove the moisture that comes out of the tofu when cooking. For serving 1. Recipe by headsup

You can eat up chicken prepared with the skin all in one sitting, but with a few extra steps, you can make it stretch to make 2-3 dishes.It's important not to overcook the mizuna! Stir-fry until just heated through. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei
