Using Leftovers for Tomato Mul (Water) Kimchi

Since you can do a lot of pickling with already fermented juice, this recipe lets you eat right away and avoid letting the highly nutritious leftover juice go to waste, killing two birds with one stone! Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

Daikon Radish and Cucumber Mul (Water) Kimchi 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.

Eggplant and Cucumber Mul (Water) Kimchi 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 cookpad.japan -
Radish and Pear Mul (Water) Kimchi Radish and Pear Mul (Water) Kimchi
This mul kimchi is especially tasty in the hot summer, but my family eats it no matter what season. It's also delicious with ingredients like apples, watermelon (the white part), and Japanese parsley. This is fundamentally a mild kimchi, but when we got some fresh red chili, we added it liberally and enjoyed.This is a mul kimchi with clear brine. If you grate the garlic and ginger they will muddy the brine, so slice them thinly instead. Use the sweeter top part of the daikon radish. This time I used cabbage because that's what I had on hand, but if you use Chinese cabbage you can also use the sweet yellow section near the heart for a delicious result.

Pear and Apple Mul (Water) Kimchi Pear and Apple 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.Only salt the cucumber. The water released from the vegetables you've salted is essentially their juice, so generally we use that too in the brine, but we want to retain the white color of the pear, so for this recipe we won't dehydrate it. The sugar is not used as a sweetener, but is necessary to help the fermentation process, so please be sure to add it. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei cookpad.japan -

Drink up the vitamins and minerals from the rice rinsing water.Since this dish also contains lots of naturally formed lactic acid, it also tonifies your gut. Recipe by Haasan aibon cookpad.japan -

My Simple Kimchi Recipe 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! MonicaTranslated from Cookpad Vietnam
