    Kimchi is indeed delicious, at first I really hated it, mainly because all the kimchi I've eaten before are made by restaurants and manufacturers that made it taste so awful, and doesn't really taste what kimchi should. After some time Korean food popularity is gaining traction and everywhere korean restaurants starts popping up like crazy, finally found one korean owned restaurant and tried their kimchi, and it was the bomb, that started my addiction to kimchi, but it's crazy expensive and you can easily eat a jar without noticing it. So I googled how to make traditional kimchi, just followed the recipe, adjusted the fermentation duration since I live in the tropics which make the kimchi ripen faster. Best thing I ever did in my life, I can now make my own kimchi which is very delicious and I don't have to pay a lot of money to eat it, can never have a meal without it.

    as a Korean adopted to the states, I grew up with this always on the table when I visited the only Korean restaurant my parents knew about, but I never ate it because my parents didn't like it. And then when I tried it, my whole world turned upside down. it was like the best food I ever tried. it made me become obsessed with Korean cooking, and so I learned a whole bunch of recipes since then. ive been trying to perfect my kimchi recipe, but with such limited Korean language ability and not knowing many koreans ive been having trouble. im definitely going to try it with her recipe. oh man, im simultaneously euphoric that such a delicious thing can exist but also slightly sad that because of being adopted, I grew up unknowing and afraid of trying new foods. most people I grew up with only ate pizza, pancakes, and sweet desserts. I didn't really care for them and that's true even more now. I don't even have a college meal plan because I prefer to cook Korean food in my dorm. it makes me believe that maybe theres something in my Korean blood that makes me just weak to loving this stuff lmao

You are no longer a minority there in Korea and everyone looks the same and speaks Korean. You will feel that you are home.

    i had kimchi once in a restaurant and it wasnt very good but i didn't give up on it just yet, because one so-so kimchi isn't enough to do that. Also where i'm from we eat a lot of fermented foods (mainly cabbage and cucumbers) and everything that goes in to kimchi sounds like such a good combination, and so tasty! Kimchi isn't easy to come by here but i really would love to try one that would rock my world!!! Also i've also got an autoimmune disease, not as harsh as this lady, but a bowl of Kimchi sounds so healing......... it's lovely that Korea is making steps to preserve its culinary heritage and Kim Soon-ja is an inspiration!

    Amazing thing is that I was really thinking these past days about trying to make kimchi (for the first time). And you then post video about kimchi! haha :) what a coincidence! I wonder about other countries though, in Slovakia its difficult to get some ingredients for kimchi/ or kimchi in general.

    I was 19 when I was introduced to kimchi. I had never seen such a thing before in my life, I had no ideal what to make of the stuff, then when I asked what it was made of and how it was made I realized my mother used to make something similar to the cabbage kimchi that was so popular around me. the kraut my mother would make was fermented cabbage not the same as kimchi but similar we used cabbage ,garlic, and salt no red pepper paste or onions and we did not eat it as often as Koreans eat kimchi. it was easy for me to pickup the taste for kimchi. I received a lot of teasing from my fellow GI soldiers over this but I didn't care. my wife used to make kimchi all the time but with the rise of the modern day super market every thing is already pre-made and packaged its hard to get her to cook like she did when we were younger. Any ways thank you for this segment. What type of kimchi do Koreans eat who are on a salt free or salt restricted diet?
