Homemade Kimchi in Switzerland! step by step
- Ready the cabbage night before..
- Using knife to make cross cut on the bottom of the cabbage..
- Tear them apart into quarter. Repeat the process..
- Cut the bottom stem..
- Chop them into little bigger than bite size..
- Put cabbage into big case or in my case cleaned sink. Sprinkle salt and give cabbage a masssage..
- Put all cabbage into a drain bowl or case to drain all the excess water from cabbage. Make sure you put something heavy on top to help drain over night..
- Cabbage : next day (most of the water was drained).
- Wash the cabbage throughly and squeeze. Leave the cabbage and help dry naturally..
- Prepare the kimchi glue. Put dried kombu into the water minimum 30 minutes to get bigger and softened..
- Once kombu is bigger and softened, put all into a pot and start heating with low heat. Stop the heat once it’s started to bubble. (I did too much).
- Mix rice flour or starch with water (not in the ingredients list)..
- Pour the mix into the pot..
- Turn on the heat (low) and mix continuously until it becomes glue texture. Leave it aside..
- Start making kimchi paste..
- Chop daikon radish, carrot and chives/wild garlic into 10cm long stick..
- Sprinkle the salt (not in the ingredients list) and give it a massage. Leave them for minimum 30 mins to 1 hour to excess water..
- Grind ginger and chop the garlics..
- Add apple sauce. If you are using fresh whole apple, put ginger, garlic and apple into blender and make paste..
- Chop anchovies and add to the bowl..
- Add fish sauce, sesame oil / toasted sesame, and sugar..
- Mix all well..
- Prepare chili flakes. Pour chili flakes into the paste. (in my case it my bowl was too small so I sprinkle the rest of chili into veggies).
- Paste with chili, veggies with chili, and glue..
- Mix them all well. This is the yangnyoem aka kimchi paste..
- Mix the cabbage and yangnyeom..
- Start putting them in a jar..
- If you got left over yangnyoem, do not throw. Please keep in another jar or ziplock bag. You can use this yangnyoem to pickle other ingredients!.
- Leave bottled kimchi in room temperature for a night. This will help kimchi fermentation..
- You can store them in a fridge. Also can enjoy after 2-3 days. Best starts after a week..
- Make sure you will open the jar everyday to let gas go. I usually open every morning and mix inside to let go the gasses..
