What's Cookin?

You guys have kimchi in the great white north?
It's a special sort of something for sure. Here's it's fermented in jars and rather sterile but in rural Korea near the DMZ they ferment in clay pots buried in the rice paddies and open sewers feed the rice paddies. The smell is gawd awful.

It's usually cabbage and very hot pepper like cayenne but there's various versions with cucumbers and changed up seasonings.
I hated it when I was in Korea then it became an acquired taste and now I love it.
My wife hates it though because of how it smells. She can be on the other side of the house with me not saying anything and being quiet and I'll hear her yell "You're eating kimchi aren't you? I can smell it! Open a window!!"

One of my favorite late night drunk meals is kimchi, pan seared chicken gizzards smothered in hot sauce, and a bowl of ramen with processed cheese slices. My wife thinks it's the most disgusting thing I eat but to me it's awesome and makes me think fondly of my time in Korea

No its not something I've tried, I've heard of it and there are places here I could get it but I'm good, I have a stable digestive system now and don't need any adjustments. When / if I do I'll think about it.

I make it fairly often, and my family loves it. And Interesting thing about kimchi, is it becomes more nutritious after fermentation. Korean chili flake, sea salt and shrimp paste can be acquired from Amazon. Napa cabbage and daikon radish are hit or miss at grocery stores up here.

Yes sir! I'm a Kimchi freak. Besides Napa cabbage I'll use mustard, swiss chard and dino kale in my recipe. I grow all those as well as Daikon radish. But I'm gonna need some store bought greens soon enough..........the supply is dwindling. I planted some garlic chives last year and to say that they are slow to get established is putting it mildly. I'll sub red radishes for daikons if I don't have them.
 
Cabbage?? Yup! got 2.5 quarts fermenting of purple cabbage sauerkraut right now.
Just finished making my hot sauce. Peppers fermented since august...whoa is it good. Fermented mustard leaves, daikon radish, garlic scapes, dilly beans and carrots are all great too. Once you get a fermentation lid for your jar, it's incredibly simple to do.

For the guys that don't like green cabbage try a napa cabbage......it's much lighter texture and taste wise. Different animal altogether :)
 
i'm hungry enough right now i'd eat anything... meat pies, kimchi, whatever you got i'd scarf it down right now!!! only leftovers i got is chili.. gonna have to make something soon. it's snowing out so it's home cookin for sure..
 
@Pipecarver No anchovies for you my friend?! 😂 A friend held a mini intervention for me earlier this year, concerned about my obsession with "salty little fish"

I've backed it off, this is only my second anchovy pizza in maybe 6 months but I do love them, it's my favorite topping 😋🐟

No fish for me, I know I've always lived by the sea on one coast or another and I'm not a real fish eater. We used to as kids all the time but Tuna sandwiches & fish & chips are about it now. Lobster is big at this time of year here too and I can eat it with Steak, butter and what have you but only once twice a year. Them salty little, sour fish tasting things don't belong on Pizza or anywhere, them things are starvation food only, kept in a survival pack along with Lima beans & Capers

The local legend pizza here is a deep dish pie with every known topping. Jalapenos and anchovies are optional but I always get them + a cup of anchovies on the side if they didn't add enough. They just make the pie! I also keep a jar of anchovies in the fridge and use them as salad toppings
