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. ;)

Banchan (aka panchan and pronounced BAHNchahn) is a generic Korean word for "side dish," and Korean cuisine has LOTS of it - a dizzying array made from all kinds of ingredients and with all kinds of techniques. A proper Korean meal usually features at least 4 or 5 different kinds, but for efficiency's sake, I like to choose one or two that I think really complement the main dish I'm serving.This Spicy Cucumber Banchan has converted many a cuke hater because it hits so many notes - spicy, salty, sweet, tangy and crunchy.This recipe serves 4 to 6 as a side and is easily doubled.

【 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!

Yum! can't wait to taste it :hungry

Easy summer side dish.

This is extremely delicious, so I would really like you to try it!It also tastes great if you add chicken tenders or tomatoes!s!Strike the cucumbers! Compared to when they're simply sliced, the flavors diffuse into them in a completely different way!Make sure to let them rest in the fridge for no less than 20 minutes.The sesame oil must be added at the end!

Quick summer salad to fix when cucumbers are in season!

This was so refreshing and delicious! Cutting it in spirals takes some time but the result is worth it! I would definitely make a double portion next time :)

This is one of those quick put together meals that are always in the rotation. This works with pork, chicken, shrimp, or hearty vegetables as well.

All thanks to Ms. Maangchi :) This is not my recipe. also known as “oi-muchim”.

Guys this is my personal salad because I like spicy food! And for me eggs with sardine and potatoes is great!! So feel free to add what you like. This salad is really adaptable💞💞💞💞💞
