Kimchi

Yummy, healthy and if you add enough pepper, definitely not for wimps
This is one of those foods that has many variations.
Any favorite recipes/pictures would be appreciated.

I have to say that this looks pretty darned delicious and I don't have a whole lot of experience with Kimchi. If you have a recipe, I would be mighty grateful.

Thanks

Thanks, Lupo.
If the ship was sinking and I could pick three foods be stranded on a desert island with, kimchi would be one of them.
Here’s a link/recipe/video to get you started.

That looks delicious. A local Korean restaurant makes a good kimchi soup that I haven't had in ages. Especially tasty on a cold winter day. I may have to make a trip out there this weekend!

Looks good... what do you cook it with? I love Korean food

Vilimo . . . check out the link to the recipe I posted.
As far as what to eat it with goes, I like it plain but my wife prefers to mix it with rice.
Other people use it in all sorts of ways. I've seen people put it on most anything.

Maybe I'm mixing things up too much, but I could see this chopped up a bit more finely and served as a topping on a grilled bratwurst in a hoagy bun...

Burnunit, that sounds good. Chop it finer and kimchi becomes a relish/condiment on steroids. People use it with eggs, spaghetti, bloody marys, hot dogs, and dozens of other things. Don’t be satisfied with the jars of kimchi you find in your grocery store produce stand either . . . they don’t hold a candle to home made.

It's great in fried rice too, especially if it's overly fermented.

Pizza and spam??? That's a little out of my league but hey, whatever floats your boat

Yes indeed! Cold weather and kimchi are excellent bedfellows!

Just give the pizza a shot, next time just put a little piece on a bite of your favorite slice and see what you've been missing. Spam is hardcore. The last few years, I've gone to bacon, the good kind. I like the bacon fat better for fried rice.

I must admit that I thought you were being facetious
Shame on me for being so close-minded.
My wife and I don’t eat red meat so Spam is out, but the next time pizza is served, kimchi will be on top.
Thanks for the great idea!

My gallon batch of home made kimchi.
