What’s the difference between this and your easy kimchi recipe? I see syrup being added to this but not much else. Thanks!

I have been craving this ever since I had this in a Korean restaurant in Rotterdam 3 years ago. Looked up several recipes but this is the one! Absolutely delicious. Thank you so much. This will become a regular in my household. I also love your website and the way you guide through recipes.

In reply to Schuz. It should keep well for a week or longer, but it will become slightly watery over time as this is very lightly salted for consumption without fermentation. This type of kimchi tastes best within 2 to 3 days.

How long can we keep this in fridge after making?

I just made the Fresh Kimchi & its delicious! Thank you! I’ve been making a lot of your recipes & they are all fantastic.

Just a suggestion, if you can post links to the brands that you buy it would be very helpful. Or pics of the bottles. As a non-Korean reader, once at Hmart all the bottles are written in Korean with a few products with English its very confusing. Plus suggestions to which are your favorite brands would be wonderful as I have no clue which brands are preferred.

Thank you for all your lovely recipes!

In reply to Amy. Yes you can leave it out but have to use more salt. Korean soup soy sauce (not regular soy sauce) is a good substitute if you have it.

I am allergic to seafood. Can I leave out the fish sauce? Or is there a substitute I can use instead? Thank you. Love your blog and your recipes!

i don’t normally post comments, but i had to for this one. the kimchi was delicious and fresh, and i won’t ever get store-bought ones again. the maesil chung really made a difference and i would recommend for anyone trying this recipe to get it. thanks!

In reply to Jamyang Choden. You can try it, but it'll be quite different and not how this dish is usually made. Also, please know gochujang is salty and slightly sweet, so you'll need to adjust the other ingredients.

Is it okay to use Gochujang sauce if I do not have gochugaru?
