Kimchi Recipe - How to Make Kimchi

How to Make Kimchi (Kimchi Recipe)

We're making Homemade Kimchi in the Chili Pepper Madness kitchen today, my friends. If you're spicy food lover, I'm certain that kimchi is already on your radar.

Kimchi is a Korean dish of spicy fermented vegetables, and extremely significant to Korean cuisine. It is consumed in many ways throughout Korea, tossed into fried rice dishes, ramen type dishes, served up as the star of the meal or nibbled on as a simple, healthy snack.

Napa cabbage is more commonly used, though it can be made with many other vegetables. The process involves fermentation, which is the break down of foods by lactic acid bacteria in a salt brine.

The result is healthier, well preserved food with more vitamins and a characteristic funk factor.

This particular version is the more popular Baechu Kimchi, or Napa Cabbage Kimchi, and we love it. It's definitely a spicy kimchi, as I include some extra spice, as well as extra umami because we just love it that way.

I also use a wet brine method, as opposed to a dry brine method, because it is easier to do and more fool-proof. Some people prefer the dry brine method, which is totally fine, but I always get great results this way.

Let's talk about how to make kimchi, shall we?

Kimchi Ingredients (What You Need to Make Kimchi)

  • FOR THE CABBAGE BRINE
  • Unchlorinated Water. For brining the cabbage. Filtered or bottled water are good.
  • Salt. Kosher salt or sea salt.
  • Napa Cabbage. Use 1 large head, about 3 pounds.
  • TO MAKE THE KIMCHI
  • Extra Vegetables and Fruit. Carrots, scallions or green onions, daikon radish or turnip, fresh garlic and ginger. Also, an Asian pear for sugar/sweet.
  • Glutinous Rice Flour. This not only helps the spicy kimchi sauce stick to the cabbage and vegetables, but also provides some sugars for fermenting.
  • Gochugaru. Gochugaru is a coarsely ground Korean chili powder, or red pepper flakes, that add lots of flavor and spice to your kimchi. It is best to use authentic gochugaru, not a substitute.
  • Umami. I use fish sauce and salted shrimp (saeujeot) and miso paste. As an alternative, use shrimp paste, or chopped dried shrimp, soy sauce, or other umami ingredients. See the recipe notes below.

How to Make Kimchi - the Recipe Method

BRINE THE CABBAGE

Make the Brine. Whisk together the unchlorinated cold water and sprinkle salt in a large bowl. 

Cut the napa cabbage into quarters

Slice the Cabbage. Slice off the root end of the cabbage. Slice the cabbage into quarters and submerge them in the brine. Use a plate or other small weights to keep the cabbage completely submerged.

Rinse and brine the cabbage to ferment

Brine the Cabbage. Set aside for 8-12 hours at room temperature.

Rinse and Chop the Cabbage. Set the cabbage into a colander and drain the brine. Rinse the cabbage and squeeze out excess water using your hands. Chop the cabbage into 1 inch pieces (if desired, or leave the pieces whole).

PREP THE VEGETABLES

Other vegetables in a bowl to make kimchi

Slice and Combine the Vegetables. Slice the the carrot, scallions, radish or turnip, and Asian pear into thin slices or matchsticks. Chop the garlic and ginger.

Add them all to a large bowl along with the chopped cabbage. Toss to combine.

MAKE THE KIMCHI SAUCE

Glutinous Rice Flower. Add the rice flour and 1 cup water to a sauce pan. Heat to a simmer, then whisk for 3-4 minutes until smooth and the mixture forms a smooth, loose paste.

Making the glutinous rice slurry

Korean Chili Flakes (Gochugaru). Remove from heat and stir in the gochugaru. The chili flakes will bloom as the mixture cools.

Mixing the flavorful kimchi sauce

Add the Umami. Stir in the fish sauce, salted shrimp, and miso paste (or your other umami alternatives).

MAKE THE KIMCHI

Mix with the Cabbage and Vegetables. Pour the mixture into the cabbage leaves and vegetables. With your hands, rub the gochugaru mixture into the vegetables, covering them as completely as possible. Be thorough.

Really get in there with your hands!

Taste and Adjust. Taste and adjust for salt or any other desired seasonings. Need more chili flakes? More fish sauce? Go for it!

Pack the Kimchi into Jars. Pack the kimchi into a large mason jar (or several). You can use other vessels, like a fermentation crock. Press the contents down and weigh it down with glass fermentation weights (or use a plastic bag filled with water).

Stuff the kimchi into jars to ferment

Cover the Kimchi. Cover with a fermentation airlock lid, or use fermentation membranes (see notes). If you don’t have such lid options, use a 2-piece lid, but don’t screw it down, just set it on top.

This is to allow any gases to escape while fermenting.

This is the fermenting lid I use to make kimchi and other fermented foods

Ferment the Kimchi. Set aside away from any sunlit areas and ferment for 1-3 days at room temperature (you CAN ferment longer if you’d like – see RECIPE NOTES on fermentation times).

Moisture should release from the kimchi, so press the kimchi down if needed to keep it below the liquid. Gases should escape via the fermentation membrane, or just loosen the lid to let any gas build up out.

Refrigerate the Kimchi. Set into the refrigerator and let sit for 1 week to let the flavors mingle. You can enjoy it right away, but it is better to wait.

The fermenting kimchi will continue to ferment slowly in the fridge.

Boom! Done! Your kimchi is ready to go. Super curious how you plan to use your fermented cabbage once it's ready. And how spicy you made it! This will last a good 6-8 months or longer in the refrigerator.

Recipe Tips & Notes

Umami Swaps. More traditional kimchi recipes use salted shrimp (along with fish sauce) to achieve that wonderful umami it is known for, but it can be hard to find.

You can use other ingredients, such as extra fish sauce, shrimp paste, dried shrimp, seaweed, anchovies, dried fish, soy sauce, or miso paste. I enjoy a combo of shrimp paste, fish sauce and miso, all of which I always have on hand for other recipes.

Kimchi Sauce Swaps. Gochugaru is pretty essential, but you can use gochujang instead, which is a Korean fermented chili paste. Try it with both.

Fermentation Times. Fermentation times can vary, depending on temperatures and ingredients. You can ferment longer if you'd like, but it is best to judge by smell and flavor.

The kimchi will grow more sour as it ferments, which some people prefer. Smell and taste after a day or two, then transfer to the refrigerator where it will continue the fermentation process more slowly.

Go Beyond Cabbage Kimchi. Napa cabbage is more commonly used to make kimchi, and is what most people associate with it. However, you can make kimchi with any vegetable, such as cucumber kimchi, which is another popular version, radish kimchi or mustard greens and others.

Try it with some of your favorite vegetables, or a combination of them.

What to Make with Kimchi. You can simply serve a 1/4 cup to a 1/2 cup as a simple side dish vegetable or snack. Or, swirl it into soups and stews, particularly stir fries. 

Kimchi Fried Rice is hugely popular, and quite delicious, as is Kimchi Stew (kimchi jjigae), and Kimchi Ramen.

That's it, my friends. I hope you enjoy my kimchi recipe. Let me know if you make it. I'd love to hear how it turned out for you. Keep it spicy! Extra spicy for me, please! I love kimchi.

    Sounds delicious! I have questions how is the bacteria of miso and kimchi working together? Is it OK? And also is it going to be miso flavour kimchi? I want to make it for my people who are vegan. Thanks:)

      Thanks, Laura. You'll get more of the gochujang flavor than miso, but overall, the flavor expression is outstanding. For me, at least! I hope it is enjoyed!
