Maybe try making green cabbage kimchi instead its pretty goof proof. Some recipes will tell you to wait a week or two but i suggest 1-2 days because it will get slimey and soft if you wait too long depending how effective your refridgerator is. This is alot easier to eat and finish it off after a few days because it's like a spicey cabbage salad and less like a pungent condiment / side dish.
picked up some of that today...If I like it I will try to make some

Its worth noting that you could have 10 brands and they will all taste different so you may not necessarily like the brand you bought.

If you find kimchi not your thing, i would recommend this sauce instead. It's fermented chili paste. You can put it on anything and it's great in marinades or in soup bases and it tastes really good and lasts forever.



Also this one is a bit more daring but if you want to get your fermented foods quota in it's a fermented soybean dip that is used for raw vegetables and lettuce wraps. (Green tub)

Just saying. Of all the brands sold in korean supermarkets here i only think 2 are decent and some are completely terrible.

the ones I get you likely won't see...the places I shop are local Oregon stuff only...less than 200 miles from here
Oregon is the shit for Local products and food

I believe it. One of the ones i like is made in canada and never heard of it before.

Just saying they can taste vastly different from brand to brand. Like some are overly fishy and you can taste a flavor enhancer or the cabbage is wilty and sours very quickly.
