It took me a while to gather all the ingredients but it turned out soo good. The container was empty in a week. Please don’t mind the slightly wonky picture.

Looks delicious!

Is kimchi not usually vegetarian?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Kimchi is typically made with fermented shrimp paste

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

No it’s mostly uses a base that has either fish sauce/oyster sauce/shrimp paste/anchovies etc. I’m not Korean but I have made Kimchi a lot of times and I’ve noticed that every family/bloggers have a different version of Kimchi. So it’s a very versatile dish and takes a couple of tries to get it right based on your preferences.

No. It usually haa fish sauce, fermented shrimp, and maybe also oysters.

Is it as spicy as it looks?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It has two components that bring the bright red color. One of them is Gochujang- a fermented chilli paste which is not at all spicy but has a strong umami flavour. The second one is gochugaru- red chilli flakes which are pretty spicy. If you’re trying to make Kimchi you can totally skip it.

If you get to try Kimchi at a restaurant it’s probably not too spicy and mellow.

The Korean resto I order from is extremely spicy... I love it though
