Are you planning to test out Korean recipes in your kitchen? If yes, then we suggest starting with the classic Kimchi. For those who don’t need an inversion, kimchi is a Korean-style pickle that takes the top spot in every meal.
A traditional Korean dish, kimchi is “part fiery, part fun and a little wild,” says veteran food critic Cara Waters. It has a deep flavor that makes kimchi stand out in so many. Besides being delicious, kimchi is also a super healthy food, thanks to the good bacteria formed by fermentation. According to the World Kimchi Institute (WiKim), kimchi consists of lactic acid bacteria produced from raw ingredients (used in the recipe), such as cabbage, garlic, ginger, etc.
