Kimchi Starter

Size

Kimchi Starter is crafted to bring Korean cuisine to your kitchen with a traditional blend of fiery chiles, herbs, and spices. Use to season cabbage or radishes before fermentation for the traditional kimchi preparation, or add it to sauces and dressings for an extra kick of flavor.

Fermented foods have made a splash on the culinary scene in the last few years as the latest and greatest health food trend. But kimchi, a Korean fermented cabbage and vegetable dish, has been around far longer than the newest trend.

In Korean culture, each family will typically have their own recipe, but in essence, cabbage and other vegetables are brined, seasoned, and then jarred for fermentation for days or even weeks. The finished kimchi can then be served as a side dish at any meal, or we've even seen it used in innovative ways such as on top of burgers or other salads!

Suggested use:

  • Toss it into fried rice
  • Add to braise for kimchi stew.
  • Serve as is to accompany a meal
  • Serve with ham and eggs for breakfast.
  • Mix into pancake batter to make Kimchijeon.

Storage & handling:

Store in a dry, cool place.
