Korean Kimchi

I believed many of you here fall in love with Korean food like me due to the Korea fever in recent years. We are lucky, we get to eat the Korean Cuisine and buy Korean ingredients easily in Singapore. Back to topics, Kimchi is a traditional fermented Korean side dish made of veggies with a variety of seasoning. It is described as spicy and sour. Do you know Kimchi benefits our health too? Due to the fermentation process, Kimchi is an excellent source of probiotics that help your body to fight off various infections. They are also packed with vitamins and minerals. There is no reason for me not to try making my own Kimchi at home. I hope you can try to do it at home too.

Taglicious Notes:

• I didn't used Korean Chilli powder. Normal Chilli powder cost $1.20 for 200g and it works.
• For the sugar & fish sauce input, you can adjust as per your liking. 
• You can let your Kimchi to ferment it for 2-3 days at room temperature for more sour taste. 

This is so crunchy & refreshing!
