Kimchee

It’s cold and snowy.  Not a mushroom in sight.  So I am again concocting in my kitchen.  Making “rotted food,” as I call it.  This time it is kimchee.  I’ve found recipes on the internet and I alter them as I experiment.  I am not quite ready to publish my own recipe yet.  One thing I do is let the cabbage rot, I mean ferment, for 5 days.  Like sauerkraut. Then I add the peppers, garlic, leeks, etc.  I added spent beets from my kvass to one batch.  Worked out pretty good, even though beets don’t taste very Korean to me.
