TRADITIONAL KIMCHI

If you love authentic Korean cuisine, you'll want to try your hand at creating your own kimchi; it's not as complicated or time-consuming as you might think. Kimchi is a fermented dish, the more it ages the better it tastes, likewise with the sugar. Use a persimmon in place of the apple, if you prefer. If you want to serve it the very next day, don't refrigerate.

Steps:

  • Mix 1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes, 3/4 cup chopped kimchi, 1/3 cup chopped cilantro and the juice of 1 lemon. Season with salt.

Tips:

  • Choose the right kimchi: Use a high-quality kimchi that is well-fermented and has a good balance of sour, spicy, and umami flavors. Look for kimchi that is made with fresh, organic ingredients and has no added preservatives.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The other ingredients in your salsa should be fresh and flavorful. Use ripe tomatoes, onions, and cilantro. If you can, use homegrown ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make kimchi salsa. You can adjust the ingredients and proportions to suit your own taste. Try adding different herbs, spices, or vegetables. You can also adjust the heat level by using more or less kimchi.
