Korean Cabbage Kimchee
The favorite kimchee vegetable is Chinese (or Napa) cabbage. The Koreans ferment it in enormous quantities. They then pack the kimchee into huge earthenware jars, bury the jars in the ground up to the neck, and cover the lids with straw until the kimchee is needed. Kimchee almost always includes hot pepper, usually dried and either ground or crushed into flakes. Because the ground dried hot pepper sold in Korean markets is generally fairly mild, Koreans can use generous quantities. Some of the Mexican (and New Mexican) ground peppers now sold in supermarkets are comparable. If you can't find ground pepper with a moderate heat level, you might combine sweet paprika and cayenne to suit your taste. Ingredients:
Instructions: Makes about 1 1/2 Quarts

It makes great condement for hot dogs and hamburgers! I have been making my own for about ten years now. I do spice mine up a little with habenoros.
If you take a little and blend it then mix a little mayo in with it it makes a nice spicy asian spread for sandwiches.
ENJOY

nice looking recipe, kimchee is good stuff !
Friend of mines mum is korean and makes kimchee. No garlic in your recipe - the one lornas mum makes is like garlic central. I mean it's more garlicky than neat garlic. Mind you I think every korean has a different recipe, I'll have to see if I can get hold of lornas. |
