Instant Cucumber Kimchi using Versatile Korean Flavoring Mix
cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
I always make cho gochujang, a versatile Korean flavoring mix, in bulk to use with bibim myun (spicy cold noodles). I rubbed salt into vegetables that I had in the refrigerator and combined it with the cho gochugang to make a Korean style instant pickle type dish.
It's an "instant" or quick pickle, so you can eat it as soon as it's mixed, but if you let it rest for a while the flavors will permeate the vegetables and it will become even more delicious. As time passes, moisture will come out of the vegetables and the flavors will become milder. If you are going to eat this right after making it though, 2 tablespoons of cho gochujang is very spicy!! So please adjust accordingly. Recipe by kebeibiko

- 1
Use 5 cm of the top part of a carrot which is around 50 g; a 5cm piece of daikon radish that's about 7 to 8cm in diameter, which is about 100 g.
- 2
Julienne the carrot and daikon radish (use a vegetable slicer). Massage the julienned vegetables with a pinch of salt (not listed in the ingredients, about 1/3 teaspoon).
- 3
Cut up the cucumber roughly and sprinkle it with some salt (not listed in the ingredients, about 1/2 teaspoon) and leave for about 10 minutes. (Each cucumber weighs around 90 g and yields 10 pieces.)
- 4
Squeeze the carrot and daikon radish tightly to eliminate excess moisture. Wrap the cucumber in paper towels and press down hard to get rid of the surface moisture.
- 5
Put the vegetables from Step 4 and the finely shredded ginger in a plastic bag.
- 6
Add the cho-gochujang (Korean seasoning mix) and rub it in as you mix the vegetables. Eliminate the air from the bag as you close it up. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator for 5 to 6 hours.
- 7
If you are going to eat it right away, add 1 tablespoon less of the cho gochujang, since the vegetables are salted.
- 8
This shows how it looks after marinating for 10 hours. A lot of moisture has come out of the vegetables and the flavor has become quite mild. If you think it needs more flavor, you can add more cho gochujang at any time.
- 9
Variation: Cucumber with Octopus. To use the cho gochujang in a sashimi style dish, see Seared Bonito (skipjack tuna) with Onions -
- 10
For reference: To make kkakdugi (kakuteki), see Kkakdugi marinated in kimchi -, which has an authentic marinade sauce.

【 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!
Cucumber Kimchi
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. ;)

Easy Kimchi
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
Mul (Water) Kimchi Instant Pickles
I get cravings for this mul kimchi on hot days. Since real pickling and fermentation take a little time, on those days I use some vinegar to enjoy this instant mul kimchi. Since you can enjoy both the kimchi and the juice, using high quality water makes it extra tasty.I had myoga ginger on hand so I used that, but you can add ingredients like pears or apples to make it fruity and extra delicious.Don't throw away the vegetable juice released from the salt - you can use it!Before you pour in the water make sure you properly let the flavor develop.

My Simple Kimchi Recipe
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!

Storeable Homemade Cabbage Kimchi
After many attempts, I finally found my own perfect flavor.You can also use fish sauce or ami no shiokara, but this is the easiest and most delicious seasoning.If the kimchi is too soupy, add some katakuriko (potato starch) to the hot water.I like it just like this. Recipe by ca1219
Authentic Kimchi
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.)
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
Eggplant and Cucumber Mul (Water) Kimchi
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 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

Not Difficult At All: Oi-sobagi (Stuffed Cucumber Kimchi) Super Easy
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.

Daikon Radish and Cucumber Mul (Water) Kimchi
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.

Fermented krill is used in real kkakdugi, but I wanted to make kkakdugi-style dish easily with the ingredients on hand, so I created this recipe.Leave the marinade for about 30 minutes to let the flavour get absorbed by the radish. It will taste delicious.Wrap up daikon radish with paper towels and tightly squeeze the excess water out. Recipe by Poron526
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!

I developed this recipe because of my shellfish allergy. It features subs for the fermented shrimp, and I've found that the flavor tastes very similar to what I ate when I was in South Korea. I will add more pictures when I make it again.
How To Make Vegan Kimchi
#MyCookbookTo be honest, I have never really tried Korean cuisine, even tho my eldest daughter is a huge Korean fan. Yes, she watches Korean drama and idolizes K-Pop groups. When she heard that I will make some Korean dishes for the month of October, she jumped with joy. So, what made me decided to make some Korean recipes?I received a jar of Korean chili sauce from @chillibellasg and I thought this would be a great chance for me to explore uncharted territory: Korean cuisine. What better way to kickstart this series than this humble vegan kimchi? Making kimchi really does takes a bit of time and effort, but, I guarantee, the end results will make all that sweat worthwhile.If you are wondering what kinda recipes go well with kimchi, you can check out @IzzyPreps website. I still dream of her Kimchi Grilled Cheese Sandwich.#lactofermentation

This rest time is crucial in making the taste come together.Check its taste (spiciness, etc.) as you go. Recipe by dormouse62
