I was introduced to kimchi by my daughter who’s best friend in elementary school was Korean. My daughter would always eat dinner at their house and tell me how delicious it was . She even helped them make kimchi with the grandma. I eventually started to taste foods she’d bring home and now it’s one of my favorite foods!!! I make Korean foods all the time.
This is the kind of stuff that brings me hope for the world. 💜 and it wouldn’t have been possible if you didn’t raise your daughter to be as open and accepting to new/different experiences as you did. Congrats fam, youre Killin it. 💜
Im so appreciative that you brought in actual korean people to help give perspective and insight! Ive been ignoring a kimchi in the back of my fridge for a while since I wasnt sure what to do with it but now i look forward to playing around with it in my meals more!
Same here, I bought a jar of kimchi about a month and a half ago form costco and it is always buried under other food, finally I think I can have some fun with it.
The format of these videos is off the chain. Listening to someone spew their culture, organically, and you enact it out as they're talking is some weird form of poetry.
A lot of people think of kimchi as a side that's serves cold, I know I did. But it Korea I was at a restaurant they actually fried it right in front of me and changed the flavor completely. It's awesome and versatile
“We could all use a little more kimchi in our life” me who owns an expensive kimchi fridge and almost always has at least 5 different kimchis: *nods in agreement*
@@Extasis.0 Yes, I add kimchi or sauerkraut to noodles, pasta, or potatoes all the time… Potatoes and sauerkraut is more of a German dish, but stir fried noodles is an actual dish…
My mother escaped East Germany when she was 19. She moved to the U.S. when she was about 30. I always related to the 2 Korean kids in school because our lunch always smelled funny. Sauerkraut. With. Everything... my dad was in the military and was stationed in Korea. One day I brought some kimchi home from school that my friend gave me. Changed my mom's life lol! I'll eat just about any fermented food but sauerkraut and kimchi are basically my 2 favorite foods. In fact, I just made 3 gallons of kimchi this past weekend. I put it in almost everything haha.
I'm from Korea 🇰🇷 and I realized I still have quite many things I can talk about this 🤣 So here are my tips and more explanations about each of the ways he introduced in the video :p 1.Stir fried rice Adding an omlet on top is good too but I think adding an sunny side up egg(or completely cooked egg if u don't like sunny side up) is more commonl and we can add more ingredients to the rice like tuna, bacon, sausage, etc Also we sometimes add shredded mozzarella cheese on top and melt it! 2.Kimchi jeon(pancake) The way he showed in the video is common way for green onion jeon but not kimchi jeon. We just cut kimchi into small pieces and add jeon powder mix, water, egg to make right consistency then also add tunna(optional). You can add shredded mozzarella cheese on top when it's almost done and melt it or before you flip it. 3.Bibimbap Bibimbap just means rice mixed with various things like vegetable side dishes, meat dishes or just cooked seaoned meat just with salt, pepper, garlic, soy sauce, and gochujang which is Korean chilli paste. In short, it's just rice, gochujang, anything you want to add. So you can put kimchi in bibimbap :p Also sunny side up egg, sesame seeds, and seeame seed oil are optional. 4.Banchan Banchan is Korean word for side dishes. We can cook kimchi to make other dishes but kimchi itself is a good banchan. Fermented kimchi is good too but freshly made kimchi and suyouk which is pork boiled in Korean style tastes really good 👍 5.Kimchi Munchie I dunno what the word muchie is. We don't use that word here. Or maybe it's an English expression i dunno. We eat kimchi that way but we don't really have name for it. When there's nothing to eat at home but if i have just 2 ingredients(eggs and seaweed, it's because Koreans always have rice and kimchi at home) then i can eat like this. If I'm not busy i can stir fry kimchi(I add perilla oil in the end not sesame oil). 6.Jjigae Stiry fry kimchi(you can skip it), and add tuna or ham or sausage or pork(belly, leg, or neck part) then pour water(vegetable or chicken stock if you want for better flavor) and boil also don't forget to season well. It's one of the stews we eat often here. I hope my tips are useful for everybody who are curious about Korean food :)
Not a huge fan of kimchi on bibimbap. The kimchi just overpowers the whole thing and just makes it a kimchi rice dish. Kind of takes away the soul of why bibimbap is bibimbap.
"Munchie" just mean as small food to snack on. Its an American word. The woman was sharing her experience as a Korean-American college student incorporating kimchi into a snack. Thank you for sharing your experiences with using Kimchi! Very cool to hear how others use it.
Great info! I love the different versions which are slowly becoming more popular here in America. My friend Danny moved to New York from South Korea with his family when he was a child. His grandmother would make a bunch of kimchi varieties and store them in the backyard. I always remember all the different flavors coming from their house and occasionally would be offered some of the delicious food they made.
I just ate some kimchi for the very first time! I had it on toast with some eggs and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely will be buying it regularly from now on.
This was the first video with Skype calls in it, that is actually enjoyable! Sound was clear, you cut the bits of the interview in digestible chunks (hehe) and sprinkled it with some nice shots of you creating the dish. Plus I liked the overview you blended it to see which dish we are at. Nice interview partners too and such a nice idea to just ask Koreans instead of picking whatever recipe there is online!
Wow, thank you so much! What a great video on Korean home-made foods. You got it right! You are very impressive in your understanding of Korean food. I will rewatch with my 12 year old son, who loves to cook and is so proud to be half Korean.
I was trying to think of what to make for lunch and this inspired me to make kimchi scrambled eggs. I chopped the kimchi and cooked it real fast in sunflower oil, then added butter and the eggs and scrambled loosely. I drizzled it with a little sesame oil and sprinkled with sesame seeds. I’m trying to develop an taste for kimchi, which is not a favorite for me, and this is the best way I’ve had it thus far.
Kimchi is an acquired taste, but if you haven't developed a taste for it I recommend you look for ripe sour kimchi and cook with it. When you cook with it the taste is much milder. Also you are likely referring to the classic cabbage kimchi. There are over 100 kinds of kimchi - many versions are milder and fresher tasting. I make a stuffed cucumber kimchi in the the summer that I'm you would enjoy -easy to make and crunchy!
One thing I will say: If you are cooking the kimchi, it kills off the probiotics so you don't benefit from them in certain dishes. However, the dish is still pre-biotic as it has all the things that gut bacteria likes to munch on, so I suppose it balances out in the end. ^_^
Love this content. Very accurate facts and I love how you two back and forth with good questions and excellent explanations. As a person who live with kimchee for long time, it's wonderful to see positive and accurate introductions of kimchee. I'm grateful.
Love this and hearing the personal stories while watching you cook it. I'm lucky enough to have grown up in an area with a huge Korean population, so I have always had access to these dishes, but I like their personal styles and takes on old school recipes. Like the kimchi fried rice...I've always had mine with a fried egg, but making it with an omelet like Japanese omurice (esp with the inner egg a little liquidy) would elevate that dish big time. I know what I am having for dinner later!!
I just discovered your channel. I had very few experiences with Kimchi and I just bought some from the grocery store and I was curious on what I could build with it. I really appreciate the way you made this video. Allowing the people to tell thier story while you make their recipe as they tell it to you in the background is a genius way of doing a TH-cam cooking video. ❤
Thank you for this video! I love Korean food but don't have anywhere close buy to purchase it. Ive been getting into just making it myself and with the weather changing, this stew is gonna be perfect!
I really like this video-- multiple interviews intercut with cooking the dishes they're talking about. This is the second video of Pro Home Cooks I've seen and they're really high quality videos, so I'm definitely subscribing.
Yes, the videos and cooking are excellent. However, a massive plus in them is how the food is presented and bringing in Koreans who can tell us how this is used in their home and how they use it today.
I'm obsessed with kimchee right now made my first batch -vegetarian-; from daikon radish and Napa cabbage that I just harvested and added my own garlic , garlic scapes , carrot, onion , hot pepper and ginger. It's so amazing!!! I will never be without.
Garlic scapes are not a normal ingredient in cabbage kimchi. However are a few types of banchan (Korean side dish) made with garlic scapes - one is garlic scape kimchi.
Mike made some videos on it, I'll try it this year, too. but first I have to try the real deal before making my own.. hard when you're living on the countryside
Fantastic job on the format. You answered all of my questions about this foreign culture dish I’ve been too nervous to ask in fear of being insensitive or ignorant. Thank you.
This video is made well. Good visuals and loaded with information on how to use Kimuchi. Kimuchi fried rice, kimuchi pan cake, stew, rice and much more ... Thank you
Thank you very much! That gave me the new inspiration to go into Kimchi again, because I abandoned it for too long now. I love Kimchi and my favourite at the moment is fresh UNfermented Kimchi, it's so easy, fresh and so, well, 'fruity' somehow. It's just Chinese cabbage (prepared with salt and washed after an hour or two), scallion and carrots, with a paste of garlic, soy sauce, chili flakes and sugar, mixed together and ready to eat - delicious! And it will ferment over the days in the fridge anyways, so... :)
I think my favorite dish from this was the soup. I've never had it before, but I can imagine what the different flavors would taste like together. I hope i get to make it one day.
I really like this video style! made Sauerkraut last year and didn't really know how to use it up. especially since I'm living alone. wanted to try kimchi this year
My favorite thing to do with kimchi, especially when it's been in the fridge for awhile, is kimchi fried rice. Endlessly flexible based on what veggies are available...
I looooove this video! I'm Mexican and Puerto Rican...California raised...and I have been making kimchi for about 4 years now. We love it. Mine is kind of a simplified recipe, good for a family of 5. I make it about twice a year...so I always have a jar we are eating from and another getting good and sour! LOL! We do that so we can make jiggae and fried rice. Our preferred ways of eating it. So good!
I'm impressed! Perhaps you were Korean in a past life? There are over 100 types of kimchi - many kinds that are simpler to make. You can also use it to make a fried toast sandwich with cheese inside. I recommend you check out Maangchi's channel. She taught me how to cook Korean food. I have to admit she cooks better than my Mom. 🤫
Love this. I always come home with a big container of kimchi when I visit H-Mart, then struggle to find ways to finish it. Kimchi fried rice is definitely going on the menu this week!
Hi guys, loved your ideas. I am making kimchi for the very first time today, even-though I have eaten before and never dared to make it myself. The very first time I ate it, I was in Fortaleza Brazil❤. I think I will try the pancake option. Greetings from beautiful AMSTERDAM.
Hey bobbi, Congrats on winning a pro home cooks apron! Just wanted to send you another message since I haven't heard back. Please email alex@@t your address and we will ship it to you. :)
@@alexandrachung6284 sorry I somehow missed this wonderful notification! Thank you so much! I am over the moon, and email,ed you yesterday with my contact information. I am so very grateful👍❣️
Wow, thank you for the video, and thank you to the experts sharing their family recipes. I just ordered some kimchi and was looking for recipes 🎉 I will try these out!
I'm half Korean and I love kimchi jigae! I make it and tell my husband it spicy pork stew (he's afraid to try kimchi because of the smell) and he loves it!
This is amazing... can you do a series for different countries? If you like, I can help you out with German food (not Bavarian, Oktoberfest stuff) and old recepeis from my grandmom.
This video really helps me out. I have kimchi in the fridge and I don't know what to cook with it. My sister likes going to Korean and Vietnamese eateries in Berlin, but we don't really have those around here. And as I don't even know the names of the dishes I can't google them. This is a good starting point. Love the family/ culture stories, too.
Excellent presentation of kimchi as well as how Koreans use it in their lives. Kimchi is very healthy food to eat regularly, teaming with tons of probiotics.
What a brilliant video....inspiring too to use Kimchi in great new ways! I have one question. What kinds of grains or legumes can be cooked together with rice? It was mentioned in this video..would love to try. I add wild rice but what else can be added. Thank you 😊
i'm korean. i mix kimchi with rice and eggs. we eat it in our daily lives. i also eat the dishes you make often. some people say that kimchi is sour and tasteless, but that's the taste of others. koreans are the perfect side dish that goes well with rice. it's amazing that our korean culture is spreading like this 🇰🇷
My mother always told me that if you have kimchi in your fridge, you already have at least 10 different dishes regardless of your cooking level. One of my favorites is the Kimchi stew with fatty pork in it. Trust me I am horrible at cooking but I never was with kimchi. Chop up your pork, add it into a pot with kimchi and sesame oil, saute it just until pork is cooked outside then add water and boil. You can add tofu at the end and there you have a stew that can make you have 3+ bowls of rice.
Love kimchi, and make my own. My interest in Korean cuisine came from watching Kdramas. The food looked SO good, and I wanted to try it. One of my favorite meals that I cook for myself is a bowl of sticky rice, a healthy dose of kimchi and one or two fried eggs, over easy. Each ingredient is separate, but melts into the others as you eat. Try to get a bit of kimchi for each bite. When I think about it, I'll add sesame seeds and roasted, torn nori, or maybe chopped scallions, but the first 3 ingredients are the winners. Now, having watched Kdramas, I noticed you put those anchovies in your broth before cleaning them, and that's a thing you might change next time. I've seen so many dramas where they are sitting by a mountain of anchovies, cleaning them before use. Mystic Pop-Up Bar is one example, and I think they did it in Uncanny Counter. An older 2011 drama, Fermentation Family, shows them making various types of kimchi, and that's a drama you might enjoy. When you're not cooking, that is. Have watched you for years, and learned quite a bit! Many thanks!
Wild rice is commonly used by Maangchi, one of the most notable and resident Korean TH-cam mom, and I find a similar mix of rice at Sprouts Farmers Market, but most big box grocery stores like Kroger and Vons/Safeway have wild rice mixes from what I have seen. (Not that far into the video, so I am not sure yet what grain you are specifying).
It's down to personal preference, I believe. Some versions combine white/ brown/ purple rice with sorghum, millet, red beans, or black beans etc. Look up "Korean multigrain rice" for ideas. Kimchimari and Maangchi have recipes and ratios, if you want them.
Love 😅 it boy's this was such a good teaching I fermented for a years now and I learned how to check ph. Fermentation if ready are not lololo have not loose a batch yet lololo but what I wonder it's what to do with it 😅😅😅
*I'm sure to say not only me is hungry and have a mouth is watering, but also everyone here are same* *You make our day with this amazing video* 💕❤💕❤🤗❤
I just made kimchi for the first time after stalking for five years since I first tasted it. And I was worried my South Asian family may think it’s lacking as things like this are served as sides rather than a main dish or as an ingredient to something greater. The pancakes definitely look like something they would enjoy! Can’t wait to try. Also the way the video is formatted is crazy! I love it.
So me personally i love Kimchi. First time i had it was back in 2016 when i was an apprentice and my head chef wanted to put it on the menu so we made alot from scratch and i just fell in love with it. Was really incredible the way it tasted right away compared to say 2 weeks later after fermenting. Kimchi is deffo a go to snack and i am the most Norwegian u can get.
Great basic dishes! One of my favorites was always a simple anju (side dish for drinking) called dubu kimchi (kimchi with tofu). Always hits the spot! Couldn’t live without kimchi! Haha
You can also make kimchi noodles, with thin wheat noodles (in Korean “Somyeon”) mixed with diced kimchi, a good amount of sesame oil, a bit of soy sauce (optional - not too much since kimchi is already salty) and a bit of vinegar (also can skip if kimchi is already sour). Top up with sesame seeds. Its delicious!!
One thing people are forgetting is that you need to let Kimchi ferment for awhile before it’s ready to eat. Even store bought ones need to be in the refrigerator for at least 3-5 days before it’s ready to make most of the Kimchi dishes shown other than Banchan. It won’t give you that true depth of flavor unless it’s fermented for the perfect amount of time. And for Kimchi Jji Ge, it should literally be really sour if you really want your Kimchi Jji Ge to taste awesome. If your kimchi is not sour but you still want to make Kimchi Jji Ge, add vinegar and it will help mimic the taste.
I bought some mild kimchi from a Korean lady in my town and tried the kimchi pancakes...It was super good! is not really crispy but I really enjoyed the soft/jammy texture, and the taste was perfect (I ended up adding salt though) . Now...Is it awful that I made dessert with the extra batter? hehe
My first batch is just about to be ready. It's too spicy, so I was looking for ways to cook it to reduce the spiciness. Thank you for the video, just in time!
I would wash off the spicy sauce when the kimchi is fully fermented, then make it into kimchi fried rice or kimchi jeon(pancake). Usually our first kimchi experience is washed kimchi as Korean kids.😆
Can you ask her which type it is multigrain / wild rice ? There are so many variations and some very different. Also can you write the name of that sparkling rice wine .... that sounds wonderful and I would love to try it. 😋
I was introduced to kimchi by my daughter who’s best friend in elementary school was Korean. My daughter would always eat dinner at their house and tell me how delicious it was . She even helped them make kimchi with the grandma. I eventually started to taste foods she’d bring home and now it’s one of my favorite foods!!! I make Korean foods all the time.
One of my favorite things about food is how it brings people together!! Thanks for sharing (:
That's so cute!

“We could all use a little more kimchi in our life” me who owns an expensive kimchi fridge and almost always has at least 5 different kimchis: *nods in agreement*
What's a kimchi fridge?
@@GetH0NEY its a fridge that's made for kimchi , I think almost every korean household has it 🤡💞
Just checked how it looks. Now I wanna a mini one or something
quick question is it okay to eat Kimchi if u warm it up?
@@Extasis.0 Yes, I add kimchi or sauerkraut to noodles, pasta, or potatoes all the time… Potatoes and sauerkraut is more of a German dish, but stir fried noodles is an actual dish…

I'm from Korea 🇰🇷 and I realized I still have quite many things I can talk about this 🤣
So here are my tips and more explanations about each of the ways he introduced in the video :p
1.Stir fried rice
Adding an omlet on top is good too but I think adding an sunny side up egg(or completely cooked egg if u don't like sunny side up) is more commonl and we can add more ingredients to the rice like tuna, bacon, sausage, etc Also we sometimes add shredded mozzarella cheese on top and melt it!
2.Kimchi jeon(pancake)
The way he showed in the video is common way for green onion jeon but not kimchi jeon. We just cut kimchi into small pieces and add jeon powder mix, water, egg to make right consistency then also add tunna(optional). You can add shredded mozzarella cheese on top when it's almost done and melt it or before you flip it.
3.Bibimbap
Bibimbap just means rice mixed with various things like vegetable side dishes, meat dishes or just cooked seaoned meat just with salt, pepper, garlic, soy sauce, and gochujang which is Korean chilli paste. In short, it's just rice, gochujang, anything you want to add. So you can put kimchi in bibimbap :p Also sunny side up egg, sesame seeds, and seeame seed oil are optional.
4.Banchan
Banchan is Korean word for side dishes. We can cook kimchi to make other dishes but kimchi itself is a good banchan. Fermented kimchi is good too but freshly made kimchi and suyouk which is pork boiled in Korean style tastes really good 👍
5.Kimchi Munchie
I dunno what the word muchie is. We don't use that word here. Or maybe it's an English expression i dunno. We eat kimchi that way but we don't really have name for it. When there's nothing to eat at home but if i have just 2 ingredients(eggs and seaweed, it's because Koreans always have rice and kimchi at home) then i can eat like this. If I'm not busy i can stir fry kimchi(I add perilla oil in the end not sesame oil).
6.Jjigae
Stiry fry kimchi(you can skip it), and add tuna or ham or sausage or pork(belly, leg, or neck part) then pour water(vegetable or chicken stock if you want for better flavor) and boil also don't forget to season well. It's one of the stews we eat often here.
I hope my tips are useful for everybody who are curious about Korean food :)
Munchie is just another word for snack.
Add some soy sauce and a little bit of sugar when you make Kimchi stir-fried rice! It's a common recipe in Korea.
Not a huge fan of kimchi on bibimbap. The kimchi just overpowers the whole thing and just makes it a kimchi rice dish. Kind of takes away the soul of why bibimbap is bibimbap.
"Munchie" just mean as small food to snack on. Its an American word. The woman was sharing her experience as a Korean-American college student incorporating kimchi into a snack. Thank you for sharing your experiences with using Kimchi! Very cool to hear how others use it.

Kimchi pancakes on a rainy day *chef’s kiss* 👩🍳
Yeah I gotta try tht one. Looked delish.
Loved it! 💋

Great info! I love the different versions which are slowly becoming more popular here in America. My friend Danny moved to New York from South Korea with his family when he was a child.

Really liked this style of video. It was a cooking video but done in a different way and it's such a great story telling method!
Yes, creative, upbeat, and gets all hooked on what he is talking about.

I’ve always wanted to make kimchi
it isn't to hard. I recommend getting Korean chili flakes. You can create American style, with cayenne. But it will be very spicy. Give it shot!
Since the summer is over, now it is the perfect time to make kimchi
Yummy Chips imma have to try it thanks
Mike made some videos on it, I'll try it this year, too. but first I have to try the real deal before making my own.. hard when you're living on the countryside
It's Michelle and Modern Pepper are overseas Koreans, who both have small batch kimchi recipes.

My favorite thing to do with kimchi, especially when it's been in the fridge for awhile, is kimchi fried rice. Endlessly flexible based on what veggies are available...
I looooove this video! I'm Mexican and Puerto Rican...California raised...and I have been making kimchi for about 4 years now. We love it. Mine is kind of a simplified recipe, good for a family of 5. I make it about twice a year...so I always have a jar we are eating from and another getting good and sour! LOL! We do that so we can make jiggae and fried rice. Our preferred ways of eating it. So good!
I'm impressed! Perhaps you were Korean in a past life? There are over 100 types of kimchi - many kinds that are simpler to make. You can also use it to make a fried toast sandwich with cheese inside. I recommend you check out Maangchi's channel. She taught me how to cook Korean food. I have to admit she cooks better than my Mom. 🤫
Love this. I always come home with a big container of kimchi when I visit H-Mart, then struggle to find ways to finish it. Kimchi fried rice is definitely going on the menu this week!
Hi guys, loved your ideas. I am making kimchi for the very first time today, even-though I have eaten before and never dared to make it myself. The very first time I ate it, I was in Fortaleza Brazil❤. I think I will try the pancake option. Greetings from beautiful AMSTERDAM.
Great insight in different ways to use kimchi. My favorite was the pancake👍 #kfoodsuperfood #myhealthykfood

@@alexandrachung6284 sorry I somehow missed this wonderful notification! Thank you so much! I am over the moon, and email,ed you yesterday with my contact information. I am so very grateful👍❣️
Wow, thank you for the video, and thank you to the experts sharing their family recipes. I just ordered some kimchi and was looking for recipes 🎉 I will try these out!
Aww I think it was so thoughtful and professional and nice to interview some koreans 💕
Really adds to the video for ideas, use, and authenticity.
Oooh I’m excited for this! I have a big jar of homemade Kimchee in my fridge that I haven’t touched. I needed these ideas!
I just make kimchi yesterday and wonder what to cook beside fried rice great video.
that's so much effort into one video. love this one!
I'm half Korean and I love kimchi jigae! I make it and tell my husband it spicy pork stew (he's afraid to try kimchi because of the smell) and he loves it!
This is amazing... can you do a series for different countries? If you like, I can help you out with German food (not Bavarian, Oktoberfest stuff) and old recepeis from my grandmom.
From NY I love kimchi and rice alone. Kimchi stew is my personal favorite
made the kimchi pancake and it was delicious 👌 so tasty
gonna totally try the other recipes next :)
This video really helps me out. I have kimchi in the fridge and I don't know what to cook with it. My sister likes going to Korean and Vietnamese eateries in Berlin, but we don't really have those around here. And as I don't even know the names of the dishes I can't google them.
This is a good starting point. Love the family/ culture stories, too.
Btw one of my favourite dishes is Sauerkraut gratin: mealy potatoes with paprika, a small apple, sauerkraut with cummin and a strong cheese on top.
Pro pro PRO tip that you’ll appreciate: make that kimchi jeon with your sourdough discard and you will lose. Your. MIND. It’s so good.
Excellent presentation of kimchi as well as how Koreans use it in their lives. Kimchi is very healthy food to eat regularly, teaming with tons of probiotics.
Love kimchi stew, especially on cold days - warm and spicy. Will have to make that soon! #myhealthykfood#kfoodsuperfood
You've won a kimchi food box! Please email alex@prohomecooks.com your address and we will ship it to you. Congrats!
I like white fish like cod with cooked potatoes. And I tried kimchi as a side dish to that. It tastes great!
OMG! I'm going to H mart right now! I gotta try all of these recipes. I was gifted a huge jug of legit kimchi and now I know what I'm making!
What a brilliant video....inspiring too to use Kimchi in great new ways!
I have one question. What kinds of grains or legumes can be cooked together with rice?
It was mentioned in this video..would love to try. I add wild rice but what else can be added.
Thank you 😊
i'm korean. i mix kimchi with rice and eggs. we eat it in our daily lives. i also eat the dishes you make often. some people say that kimchi is sour and tasteless, but that's the taste of others. koreans are the perfect side dish that goes well with rice. it's amazing that our korean culture is spreading like this 🇰🇷
My mother always told me that if you have kimchi in your fridge, you already have at least 10 different dishes regardless of your cooking level. One of my favorites is the Kimchi stew with fatty pork in it. Trust me I am horrible at cooking but I never was with kimchi. Chop up your pork, add it into a pot with kimchi and sesame oil, saute it just until pork is cooked outside then add water and boil. You can add tofu at the end and there you have a stew that can make you have 3+ bowls of rice.
Thank you for loving Kimchi~ Kimchi is a traditional Korean food
Love kimchi, and make my own. My interest in Korean cuisine came from watching Kdramas. The food looked SO good, and I wanted to try it. One of my favorite meals that I cook for myself is a bowl of sticky rice, a healthy dose of kimchi and one or two fried eggs, over easy. Each ingredient is separate, but melts into the others as you eat. Try to get a bit of kimchi for each bite. When I think about it, I'll add sesame seeds and roasted, torn nori, or maybe chopped scallions, but the first 3 ingredients are the winners. Now, having watched Kdramas, I noticed you put those anchovies in your broth before cleaning them, and that's a thing you might change next time. I've seen so many dramas where they are sitting by a mountain of anchovies, cleaning them before use. Mystic Pop-Up Bar is one example, and I think they did it in Uncanny Counter. An older 2011 drama, Fermentation Family, shows them making various types of kimchi, and that's a drama you might enjoy. When you're not cooking, that is. Have watched you for years, and learned quite a bit! Many thanks!
loved this format!
I want to know what specific grains those were, or if I can find any sort of mix...
Same 😅
They sell mixed ones at korean grocery store
Wild rice is commonly used by Maangchi, one of the most notable and resident Korean TH-cam mom, and I find a similar mix of rice at Sprouts Farmers Market, but most big box grocery stores like Kroger and Vons/Safeway have wild rice mixes from what I have seen. (Not that far into the video, so I am not sure yet what grain you are specifying).
It's down to personal preference, I believe.
Some versions combine white/ brown/ purple rice with sorghum, millet, red beans, or black beans etc.
Look up "Korean multigrain rice" for ideas.
Kimchimari and Maangchi have recipes and ratios, if you want them.
@@MC-ko2mx Thank you!
Love 😅 it boy's this was such a good teaching I fermented for a years now and I learned how to check ph. Fermentation if ready are not lololo have not loose a batch yet lololo but what I wonder it's what to do with it 😅😅😅
*I'm sure to say not only me is hungry and have a mouth is watering, but also everyone here are same*
*You make our day with this amazing video*
💕❤💕❤🤗❤
Had a small stroke reading his
@@nathantyrrell5447 thank you, if u can, pls subs to us with notification🤗
Love your vids Mike. Will try Kimchi.
Thank you, amazing video!! I love that they talk about the recipe and u make it
I just made kimchi for the first time after stalking for five years since I first tasted it. And I was worried my South Asian family may think it’s lacking as things like this are served as sides rather than a main dish or as an ingredient to something greater. The pancakes definitely look like something they would enjoy! Can’t wait to try. Also the way the video is formatted is crazy! I love it.
Awesome, I especially love the kimchi stew, but I also want to try the scallion pancakes😋
So me personally i love Kimchi. First time i had it was back in 2016 when i was an apprentice and my head chef wanted to put it on the menu so we made alot from scratch and i just fell in love with it. Was really incredible the way it tasted right away compared to say 2 weeks later after fermenting. Kimchi is deffo a go to snack and i am the most Norwegian u can get.
Thank you for sharing your experience and your recipes. We always get inspired.
Excellent video concept, amazing job!
I eat it alone and sometimes with rice. It’s so good
I just discovered kimchi and want to eat more. Thanks for the ideas
Thank you for this video. I love kimchi!!!
Yes. Peel the oranges for me. Sticky hands in school is just plain annoying.
but the orange smell that stays isnt that bad
@@tristindavis2091 yaa😁
its 2 AM, i'm a tad drunk, and just made buchimigae for the first time. it so good and so easy! gonna make that all the time now, thanks!
Great basic dishes! One of my favorites was always a simple anju (side dish for drinking) called dubu kimchi (kimchi with tofu). Always hits the spot! Couldn’t live without kimchi! Haha
Period
You can also make kimchi noodles, with thin wheat noodles (in Korean “Somyeon”) mixed with diced kimchi, a good amount of sesame oil, a bit of soy sauce (optional - not too much since kimchi is already salty) and a bit of vinegar (also can skip if kimchi is already sour). Top up with sesame seeds. Its delicious!!
Thanks for sharing! I'll try this for lunch tomorrow
Love this ingredient and love this content!
One thing people are forgetting is that you need to let Kimchi ferment for awhile before it’s ready to eat. Even store bought ones need to be in the refrigerator for at least 3-5 days before it’s ready to make most of the Kimchi dishes shown other than Banchan. It won’t give you that true depth of flavor unless it’s fermented for the perfect amount of time. And for Kimchi Jji Ge, it should literally be really sour if you really want your Kimchi Jji Ge to taste awesome. If your kimchi is not sour but you still want to make Kimchi Jji Ge, add vinegar and it will help mimic the taste.
Just got back from Seoul and was in heaven with all the kimchi and kimchi dishes!!!
Love the recipes. I have a big jar of kimchi in the fridge to try them. Love that blue bowl you have at the end. Where did you get it?
I bought some mild kimchi from a Korean lady in my town and tried the kimchi pancakes...It was super good! is not really crispy but I really enjoyed the soft/jammy texture, and the taste was perfect (I ended up adding salt though) . Now...Is it awful that I made dessert with the extra batter? hehe
Can you put up what grains you used? It looked like a delicious blend
우연히 영상을 봤는데 김치 볶음밥 위에 오믈렛이 아닌 반숙:) 김치찌개는 오래 끓일수록 더 맛있어요!
My first batch is just about to be ready. It's too spicy, so I was looking for ways to cook it to reduce the spiciness. Thank you for the video, just in time!
I would wash off the spicy sauce when the kimchi is fully fermented, then make it into kimchi fried rice or kimchi jeon(pancake). Usually our first kimchi experience is washed kimchi as Korean kids.😆
Kimchi stew is the way to go especially with the colder weather #myhealthykfood #kfoodsuperfood
You've won a kimchi food box! Please email alex@prohomecooks.com your address and we will ship it to you. Congrats!
Good food + educational video,what more can one want! 😋
So good! Cheers Mike. Just made my first batch of kimchi the other day so will definitely be exploring some of these
been making kimchi stew on the daily! one of my to-go's during quarantine.
Thank you for this informative video.
Saved to my favorites, thanks!!!
Can you ask her which type it is multigrain / wild rice ? There are so many variations and some very different. Also can you write the name of that sparkling rice wine .... that sounds wonderful and I would love to try it. 😋
My doctor recommended kimchi for my gut health. This video is super helpful thank you for sharing ❤
