Radish Kimchi

When I have chance to pickup a Korean radish, I get one, smaller sized as I am the only one who likes kimchi in our household. This is pretty easy, but if you can't get Korean pepper paste, sub 1 Tbl chili powder and 1 Tsp. Cayenne (hot) for each Tbl. Of the Gochujung. Adjust the Cayenne to your heat level.
I eat this with rice dishes, and not just Korean rice dishes.
You can sub turnips for the Korean radish. Some people say to use a Daikon radish, but I find turnips are closer to a Korean radish.

    Mix the sauce in, make sure it's all completely mixed

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.
