What to cook from
There are many recipes for this dish. Just as every family in Russia has its own nuances in the recipes for soups, olivier salads and other traditional dishes, so in every Korean family, kimchi is prepared a little differently. But in most cases, the following ingredients are used:
- Beijing cabbage - 1 pc.;
- red hot pepper (fresh) - 1 pc.;
- ground chili pepper - 1 tbsp;
- garlic - 4-5 cloves;
- ginger root - to taste;
- coriander seeds - 1 tbsp;
- vegetable oil - 1 tbsp;
- salt - to taste.
Some recipes use fish sauce or shrimp paste for a special flavor. As for red pepper, be sure to take fresh, because the prepared red pepper in jars has a completely different taste.
