Kimjang Project: South Korean Style Kimjang Kimchi

Namhansik Kimjang Kimchi / 남한식 김장김치 uses less seasoning than in this recipe than traditional kimjang kimchi, as it can be eaten fresh. Normally, kimjang kimchi requires the use of more salt to maintain the fresh taste that lasts through the winter and until spring. To prepare the radish, firstly cut it into 5cm lengths. Then, slice this lengthways by 1mm thick before julienning the radish into thin strips or use a mandolin slicer. Korean British Cultural Exchange (KBCE) has launched a new recipe book, collating unique kimchi recipes from North Korea, South Korea and China in the UK, as part of the Kimjang Festival. The festival which took place for the first time in November 2019 - was the first of its kind in the UK, and attracted audiences from all over the UK and even from further abroad. The Kimjang Project is organised by the Korean British Cultural Exchange (KBCE), a charity that runs events and educational activities to promote Korean culture in the UK. Kimjang: Making and Sharing Kimchi is a new initiative, made possible by money from the National Heritage Lottery Fund.

For these reasons, it is thought that consumption of these five pungent vegetables will cause disruption to their training and meditation and therefore they are avoided in their everyday temple food diet. __________ This is shared under a Creative Commons license (CC-BY-NC ) ' Attribution Non-commercial'.

Kimjang Project: Korean Whole Radish Kimchi

Altari kimchi / 알타리 김치 can alternatively be prepared by cutting the green leaves off the radish and preparing them separately. It is important when salting the kimchi to concentrate more on adding salt to the radish root than on the green leaves. In addition, the Korean radish produced in Europe is smaller but firmer than those grown in Korea which has their own unique texture and flavour. Korean British Cultural Exchange (KBCE) has launched a new recipe book, collating unique kimchi recipes from North Korea, South Korea and China in the UK, as part of the Kimjang Festival. The festival which took place for the first time in November 2019 - was the first of its kind in the UK, and attracted audiences from all over the UK and even from further abroad. The Kimjang Project is organised by the Korean British Cultural Exchange (KBCE), a charity that runs events and educational activities to promote Korean culture in the UK. Kimjang: Making and Sharing Kimchi is a new initiative, made possible by money from the National Heritage Lottery Fund. To read more about the project, visit www.kbce.org.uk / www.kimjangproject.com ____ Main Ingredients: - 1.5kg Korean radish (Altari) - 3 Spring onions (diagonally sliced) - 100g Korean coarse sea salt (Cheonilyeom) for salting Seasoning ingredients: - 100g Korean red chilli - pepper powder (Taeyangcho gochugaru) - 30g Fine sea salt - 30g Garlic cloves (finely chopped) - 10g Ginger (finely chopped) - 150g Onion (blended) - 150ml Glutinous rice paste - 15g Fermented shrimp paste (Saeujeot) - 50ml Fish sauce (Myeolchiaekjeot) ____ Method: 1. Trim the end of each radish. 2. Scrub the radish with a scouring pad to remove all the embedded dirt. 3. Wash the radish under running cold water and clean the green leaves thoroughly. 4. Sprinkle coarse sea salt all over the radish and leave it for an hour, turning it over every ten minutes to ensure it is salted evenly. 5. Rinse the salted radish under running cold water two to three times, then drain the excess water thoroughly. 6. Blend the onion with a blender until completely liquidised. 7. Move the liquidised onion into a large mixing bowl. 8. Add all the remaining seasoning ingredients. 9. Mix the drained radish with the seasoning gently and evenly. 10. Wrap each radish up individually in its leaves and place them facing up neatly in a kimchi container. 11. Pour any leftover seasoning over the kimchi until completely covered. 12. Place the kimchi in an airtight container and leave it at room temperature (normally between 20 and 24°C) for three to five days depending on the weather and personal preference (how fast you want your kimchi to mature) then store in the fridge. Notes: • When salting, concentrate more salt on the radish root than on the green leaves. • Another way to prepare altari radish is to cut the green leaves off the radish and prepare them separately. • Korean radish produced in Europe is smaller but firmer than those grown in Korea which have their own unique texture and flavour. __________ This is shared under a Creative Commons license (CC-BY-NC ) ' Attribution Non-commercial'.

Mu Baechu Mulkimchi / 무 배추 물김치 features a combination of Korean cabbage, Korean radish and onion which gives a sweet taste to the kimchi.

Bukhansik Kimjang Kimchi / 북한식 김장김치 is a type of North Korean style kimchi. Typically, North Korean kimchi tends to use fewer ingredients than kimchi made in South Korea or China, but this kimchi is closer to the original form of kimchi made during the Joseon dynasty (1392-1910). Korean British Cultural Exchange (KBCE) has launched a new recipe book, collating unique kimchi recipes from North Korea, South Korea and China in the UK, as part of the Kimjang Festival. The festival which took place for the first time in November 2019 - was the first of its kind in the UK, and attracted audiences from all over the UK and even from further abroad. The Kimjang Project is organised by the Korean British Cultural Exchange (KBCE), a charity that runs events and educational activities to promote Korean culture in the UK. Kimjang: Making and Sharing Kimchi is a new initiative, made possible by money from the National Heritage Lottery Fund.
