Its not bulging eyes hot?!?!?!? LOL
Looks great though!
@meesterboom it should be actually, the original Korean way
but I tweaked it so it's tamed.
If you put 500 gram sambal - it would be ;)
Well, at least you read it. Thank you. Try?
Oh yes for sure I will try, I will have to get a hold of some sambal but it shouldnt be hard! :O)
i'll try! can i use any type of hot sauce though? like salsa or whatever.
@razavanelulmarin - salsa has tomatoes - it would taste different.
I used the sambal because its main ingredients are @papa-pepper's relatives - Chili peppers + salt + Acetic and Ascorbic acid.
If you can find Chili powder that looks like this
then just add salt and cooked rice powder (liquidy).
I think the hot sauce would be too liquidy - unless the ingredients is closer to what I wrote above - it won't taste the same nor have the same health benefits.
The mix is the key to proper fermentation and producing the right probiotic.
I won't recommend salsa for kimchi but I sure love them with Nachos or potato chips :D
When you come here for the Steemfest, hoard some sambal! ^ ^ haha
very hard to get sambal here...i'll look around.
@razvanelulmarin how about jalapenos, do you have them? They would do - just scrape off the seed, then just add as many as you can bare. If you like it spicy hot like @meesterboom for this much Chinese cabbage you will need at least 10 jalapenos I suppose. If you don't have jalapenos in Romania, if I read it right - you're from there? Any hot spicy @papa-pepper's family member would do. You will just have to measure it for your liking.
I made this mild spicy because I'm already skinny. I loose more weight in winter - my metabolism is very fast and eating more spicy food not to mention that it has ginger in it would make me burn more.
I only eat it to boost my immune system. Good luck and I hope you find the right pepper.
I have 2 containers of kimchi always. I eat it daily. I have never made my own, always buy it at the Hmart by me fresh then let it sit to get good and strong. I might have to try to make my own now. Thank you for the recipie.
awesome :D im trying this tonight :D
@manzoor1984 thank you
:) i made it ^_^ its was so tasty :D Thank again :)
@manzoor1984 really?
share a pic? curious how it turned out with you.
Too Late ; ) its in my tummy now :P hehe ;) ^_^
That looks very pedis (spicy) to me. :-) Don't like the fishy part. But it could do with vegatable broth insteed I guess.
And I saw that you could not find that shrimp pasta. Indonesia kitchen uses something that might come close to that, it is called trasi.
I think it smells and tastes very awefull. But Indo cooking uses it a lot. But in our Family is one Vegetarian so luckily no trasi.
I use sambal badjak a lot, even in Italian food. Not as Hot as oelek. Never tried fernenting food. New ideas, Thanks Ivy!
@oaldamster, yes, kimchi smells like a casserole - that's why I tweaked it - hub won't be able to stand it if it was the original version.
He loves this one, he often asks me to make.
There are many versions of kimchi and some don't need peppers nor fish sauce.
I'll try to tweak the "white kimchi" as they call it cause that one needs fresh young coconut milk's juice and that I can order in the Philippine product store here but surely - the readers maybe can't.
I tweak it cause it has to have the same fermenting effect - a proper one, otherwise it won't have the same health benefits.
You guys have fermented food, too - Ajar I think - it's called that?
My better half has Indonesian roots, I'm a blanda toto, hahaha, I'll ask her about fermentation. But I like to learn things that broaden my horizon. And I love experimenting with cooking. As Long as there is no Fish involved. :-)
Coconut Milk I buy in a can and I use it making vegetarian Soto, a meal soup. Gives it a nice smooth taste in combination with the mild sharpness of sambal badjak.
And now I stop writing about food for now, cause I want to eat again, while I just had lunch. :-)
@oaldamster - ah - hahaha I'll keep that it mind
No fish on the table for you ..
I meant buko juice :)
I looked for sambal badjak in AH last time you recommended it but the AH help said it was "op" .. i forgot about its name , now i do - writing in the agenda - hahahaha
This one, Koningsvogel brand, is perfect, it has no trasi in it, hahaha. Our daughter even did eat in on bread, when she was younger. Sometimes with cheese.
I bought the Sambal badjak at Jumbo's.
Selamat makan!
@oaldamster - I see, okay will be off to jumbo for a new stock of banana for the smoothie, will look for it.
Thank you for the pic, it's better to know which one exactly.
and Thank you for resteeming!
Love to eat Kimchi being a Korean man. Thanks for showing me how to make kimchi. Up voted and following you.
Be sure to up vote my blog. Thanks. Much success.
Thanks for the recipe, I'll have to try it out someday. Do you also know a dish called "bimbambap"? I wanted to try it out after hearing the name (don't even remember when or where it was) because to a Finnish ear it sounds pretty funny name for a dish.
@gamer00 Bibimbap - it means mixed rice - also Korean :)
also very delicious
I will be trying this!!!!!
excellent post, beautiful photographs, I really liked the akusay, thanks for the desserts. Congratulations
I've seen a different way they make this in a TV show. They keep the cabbage in whole. Then flip open piece leaf by leaf and apply the sauce layer by layer. It was quite laborious.
My friend told me they have to have 2 refrigerators in Korea - one for kimchi and one for the rest. :-)
Just wondering have you ever tried to google for: Agnes Park?
@ace108
you should give this word to @opheliafu ;)
You're right - that's the traditional way of making it as I wrote above and shown on the third picture. Like I wrote, I tweaked it because I need to make it easier for me to do. And if it's too difficult the readers of this article would have a hard time, too.
Making Kimchi the traditional way needs a huge space and I have a kitchen with just enough room for me to roll around not to mention that it's very white. The kimchi mix could stain the cupboard doors so I had to find ways to make it a lot easier to do.
What matters is that it has the same health benefits as that of the traditionally made kimchi.
This is the normal scene in making kimchi the traditional way in Korea.
Yes they do, they consume a great amount of kimchi. It's always served in every meal and they always eat a lot so they make a lot of kimchi -and have a separate fridge for its smell could get to the other dishes.
This is a normal scene in Korean table - I miss experiencing this. It's a always a buzz eating with them. They always tell a joke, and that I like a lot because I was brought up - with a certain table manner - one is "no long faces in front of the food." With the Koreans, I was always happy having a meal with them - not just cause of the food but also cause they tell so many funny stories. I love that about them. As you can see there's not just one plate of kimchi on the side dishes.
Yes, that's after daum, naver and kakao story didn't give me anything about her. You probably are the same age as she is - however, I'm not sure she uses computer as many other people your age. I was late with having emails - had it not been to my students I would have not had an email. I was a workaholic back then, oblivious that the world was leaving me behind till one of my Japanese students asked me to have one when her family had to go back to Japan. I was already 24 - it was too late isn't it.
Hahaha my comment already looks like an article.
Then, let's upvote the comment. :-)
Thanks for the detail reply.
Tried FB for Agnes Park? For the land that produce Samsung phones, I think we have to give them some credit for use of technology.
Any chance: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100010001643696
@ace108 Thank you!
Oh I forgot to put in that long comment above -
Koreans have a different name, they use a certain character like in my case they would write Ivy as 아이비.
Agnes is not the name that's on her birth certificate. That's the English name she chose to make it easy for the international friends she had when she was in the Philippines. I don't know her first name. I only know her last name which is actually the last name of her hubby. Korean women don't change name after getting married, they have that privilege like we do here in the Netherlands. So I only know she's Mrs. Park but it's possible that she was actually a Kim or a Lee or a Wang or - any other Korean Last name. I had her back when I was young - early 20s - on those 1st years of teaching Orientals, I wasn't aware of so many things about their culture. I was joggling between Japanese, Koreans, Chinese, Hongkongese and Thais "culture and info about them" back then.
Oh well. I guess you tried everything you thought of. :-)
@ace108 I did. I was close to her - like a mom!
To all 58 Steemians who upvoted this post and everyone who commented below, THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH!
I enjoyed the comments this time - so very much.
Thanks for this. Really well done. Sure there aint no chinese cabbage near me but I'll be looking :)
