Instructies

 

• Dissolve the starter in 100 ml lukewarm water.

Kultured Kimchi

Kultured Kimchi (English)

Kimchi is Korean fermented deliciousness. It is deeply rooted in their culture and you can find it everywhere in the country. It is so deeply rooted that a Korean research institute developed a special space-proof kimchi that can be sent along with their astronauts on space missions. That seems like a food you have to try right?

Admittedly, real Koreans will probably not label our kimchi as proper kimchi, but we believe it is a real tasty version that you can make with ingredients that you can easily find in a supermarket. That is already a great start, no?
