kimchi

Kimchi is a typical Korean fermented food that is loved by many people for its unique spiciness and flavor. It has a deep flavor and charm that is created by fermenting various vegetables.

The basic ingredients of kimchi are vegetables such as radish and Chinese cabbage, which are fermented with seasonings such as garlic, ginger, chili pepper, and fish sauce. This changes the flavor of the vegetables and creates new ingredients by adding spiciness and saltiness.

Kimchi has a unique flavor that is a perfect combination of spiciness, sourness, and saltiness. Its flavor stimulates the appetite and makes the meal more enjoyable. Kimchi also contains healthy bacteria produced through fermentation, which contributes to improving the intestinal environment.

Due to its flavor and versatility, kimchi is not only eaten alone, but is also used in stir-fries, hotpots, and pancakes (Korean-style okonomiyaki). Furthermore, it is also a popular ingredient in typical Korean dishes such as kimchi hot pot and kimchi jjigae.
