Ingredients:
For the Brine:
- 1 medium Napa cabbage
- 1/4 cup sea salt
For the Kimchi Paste:
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce (or soy sauce for a vegetarian version)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons Korean red pepper flakes (Gochugaru)
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 daikon radish, julienned (optional)
Cooking Steps:
Preparing the Cabbage:
Step 1: Cut the Napa cabbage lengthwise into quarters. Remove the core.
Step 2: In a large bowl, dissolve sea salt in water to create a brine.
Step 3: Submerge the cabbage quarters in the brine, ensuring the salt water reaches between the leaves. Let it soak for 2-3 hours, turning occasionally.
Making the Kimchi Paste:
Step 4: Rinse the salted cabbage under cold water and let it drain.
Step 5: In a mixing bowl, combine grated ginger, minced garlic, fish sauce, sugar, Korean red pepper flakes, chopped green onions, julienned carrot, and daikon radish (if using).
Assembling the Kimchi:
Step 6: Using gloves, spread the kimchi paste between the cabbage leaves, ensuring each layer is coated.
Step 7: Tightly pack the kimchi into a clean glass jar, pressing down to remove air bubbles.
Step 8: Leave some space at the top of the jar and seal it.
Fermentation:
Step 9: Place the jar in a cool, dark place for 1-5 days, depending on your desired level of fermentation.
Step 10: Check the kimchi daily, pressing it down to keep it submerged in its juices.
Step 11: Once fermented to your liking, refrigerate the Homemade Kimchi.
Step 12: Enjoy your Homemade Kimchi as a side dish, in stir-fries, or as a flavorful addition to various dishes.
Delight in the authentic taste of Homemade Kimchi – a versatile and tangy condiment that adds a burst of flavor to your meals.
