Why Eat Kimchi?
2008-05-28 21:01:00 Kimchi, also known as 'gimchi' or 'kimchee' is a fermented Korean food, equivalent to our sauerkraut. Eaten as a side dish, its main ingredient is cabbage. Kimchi has been eaten for the last 3000 years, and only recently (12th century) began to be prepared with the addition of chili peppers. Other variations today include kimchi made of radishes, scallions, or stuffed cucumber. Kimchi is seasoned with ginger, garlic, onions, and sometimes brined shrimp or fish sauce (anchovy based).Fermented foods like kimchi are known as healthy foods, and not just for the vitamin content (Vitamins A, B1, B2, Calcium, C, Carotene). Ann Louise Gittleman, author of The Gut Flush Plan writes that it's because they "feed and sustain the probiotic population in our digestive tracts," keeping our guts in good shape. Named one of the top five "World's Healthiest Foods" by Health magazine, kimchi contains lactic acid bact...

Kimchi - Korean Pickled Cabbage
2008-04-19 12:43:00 I have been trying to make my own kimchi for years now. Every recipe I googled or saw in cookbooks just went wrong. Four times over the last year I tried again, leaving the kitchen with a nasty rotten bubbly cabbage smell.This time, I set my mind on pushing this experiment to perfection. I went to our library and looked for the oldest possible traditional Korean cookbook - found one called Growing Up In A Korean Kitchen (by Hi Soo Shin Hepinstal) - a collection of memories and recipes passed on from one generation to another. Immediately I fell in love with it, but what more, I knew with this cookbook; I ll make my kimchi the way I always wished for. I mean this girl makes her own gochujang paste and soy sauce!So what is kimchi, anyway? High in protein, vitamins A and B and low in calories with fibrous texture and lactic acid content.Korean kitchens create more than one hundred kinds of kimchi, using everything from cabbage to watrermelon skins and even pumpkin blossoms in summer. E...
Kimchi Stew (Kimchi jjigae)
2008-03-09 23:46:00 Winter weather can really get to me sometimes. I would find myself waddling around the apartment in a heavy fleece robe and thick winter socks, and still feeling a little bit chilly. Here's a dish that's perfect for minus degree weather. This recipe is from my roommate. This is a Korean dish that is easy to make and will definitely leave you sweating profusely after consumption.Kimchi Stew (Kimchi jjigae)Ingredients:Kimchi, a whole lot2-3 slices of SPAM, cut into ~2 inch lengths (Optional)Half an onion, sliced3 Scallions, chopped2 tbsp red chili powder2 tbsp minced garlic2 tbsp onion powderSaltDirections:1.

The Obligatory Space Kimchi Post
2008-02-25 15:53:00 I had mentioned a while back that researchers were working on space-friendly kimchi. So when they finally came through with a product, I thought, well, okay–old news. But the unveiling of space kimchi is getting this story some more legs. It was in The New York Times this past weekend. Some part of me, though, feels ...
S Korea to send 'kimchi' to space
2008-02-14 10:07:00 BBC says, "Many South Koreans believe kimchi has beneficial health properties South Korea's national dish, kimchi, has been cleared for launch on the country's first space expedition. A specially-developed recipe of the much-loved pickled cabbage dish is among several Korean food products approved for the April 2008 mission. The recipe omits a bacterium previously thought to be vital for fermentation but which would be dangerous in space.A special container has also been to designed to withstand pressure and prevent any spicy spillages in space. Kimchi is made by fermenting cabbage with red peppers, radishes and a lot of garlic and ginger. But the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) said that the lactic acid bacteria which usually help the fermentation process "could threaten astronauts' health in space". So they devised a variation on the dish which does not contain any bacteria. "Kimchi must be provided in a germ-free state," it said. The dish will feature on the me...

For all you patient people out there, I do apologize for not updating daily anymore. I wish I could, but now that I am busy working I don't have much time. Well, I have time now so tonight I'm going to give you a kimchi update--literally!When I was in Korea, no matter where I went I always thought about "hmm...this could be a potential blog post!" Well, the same thing still comes to mind back home. Just yesterday I was at a local Asian supermarket chain, T&T Supermarket in Richmond. I was roaming down one of the refrigerator aisles and what did I see? You guess right--KIMCHI!I've seen this kimchi/Korean aisle before, but today I decided to snap a few pictures. Man, Koreans who are living here must love being able to buy pretty much anything from back home in Richmond (and Coquitlam). I visited an Asian specialty shop and was able to f...

CW’s Kimchi Fried Rice — Southern Style (Kimchi BokkeumBap 김치 볶ì
2007-10-22 04:31:00 My co-worker, Chris Wright, is a legend in Anyang. It seems like he knows everybody. Like a Virginia-born Jack Black, he comes into work early each day with his iPod blaring classic rock, ready to tell stories of the night before. He’s also the organizer and MC of Anyang’s monthly Open Mic Night. Chris also likes good food, and he has to cook for himself a lot of times. Recently, over some beers and smoked turkey, he told me his way of making Kimchi BokkeumBap with methods taught to him by his Korean girlfriend. It sounded so good that I made it for breakfast the next Saturday morning. The way one gets fried rice at a Korean restaurant is usually all the ingredients thrown together at one time and stir fried over high heat. I prefer to do things in steps. The big thing about fried rice is prepping everything ahead of time. First the aromatics. Chopped onion, garlic and ginger. Then clean the refrigerator out with vegetables you need to get rid of. In this one,...

The Kimchi Scale?
2007-05-25 04:21:00 The Asia Sentinel reports on a Joongang Daily article saying that the Korean government wants to establish standards to rate commercially produced kimchi. The standard would be a five point scale to rate its spiciness as well as rating its level of ripeness (non-fermented, fermented, and over-fermented). So maybe you’ll be able to know the ...

Season's Greetings from The Daily Kimchi!
2006-12-21 15:36:02 Whew--I'm tired. We just moved into our new place (it's great) and just unpacked everything after packing it up for transport this morning. 24 hours from now we'll be on a flight to Dubai from Incheon International Airport. This post will mark the last post until New Year's Eve, when we return from Dubai. Think of it as a "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" from the both of us. I will probably post a few pictures of Dubai when I get there, so stay tuned. Thanks for reading and all the kind comments--until next time!Merry Christmas (artwork by my cousin Sharon--composed with Paint)!"Why is it so cold?!" -Devante
Finishing off the last of the kimchi
2006-12-05 21:12:01 About two months ago I bought a bag of kimchi from Homever. A few nights ago we (mainly Gdog) finished off the bag (to Devante's delight since it stunk up our fridge so bad--even though it was stored in a ziplock bag and then put into an airtight container) with some ramyeon noodles, spinach and dumplings. The kimchi got better over time--and the smell got worse in our fridge. It was a wonderful feeling smelling a wave of pungent odor bombard my nostrils--the moment I would grasp onto the door handle and pull.Kimchi is delicious, but I should've taken ZenKimchi's advice and purchased a real airtight container (I had a plastic Ziplock style container). Oh well, until next time!My mouth is watering just looking at this picture...mmm...kimchi...
