Dish: Kimchi
Culinary: scandinavian
Ingredients
- 500g Napa cabbage, chopped
- 100g carrots, julienned
- 100g radishes, thinly sliced
- 30g sea salt
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru)
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce (or a plant-based substitute)
- 150ml water
- 1 tablespoon dill weed (for Scandinavian flavor)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped Napa cabbage and sea salt. Let it sit for 2 hours, tossing occasionally until the cabbage wilts.
- Rinse the cabbage under cold water and drain well.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the grated ginger, minced garlic, sugar, Korean red pepper flakes, fish sauce, and water. Stir well to create a paste.
- Add the rinsed cabbage, julienned carrots, sliced radishes, and dill weed into the paste. Mix thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly.
- Transfer the mixture into a clean glass jar, pressing down firmly to remove any air pockets. Leave some space at the top as the kimchi will expand during fermentation.
- Seal the jar and let it sit at room temperature for about 2-3 days, before transferring it to the refrigerator. Taste the kimchi daily to check for the desired fermentation level.
- Once fermented to your liking, store in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
