Every time I made this, I always ended up a little short with the sauce for my last quarter of cabbage. These days I separate the sauce into quarters so I don't have to open the others back up to rob a little. _Extra work I know, but it works better for me._ While I'm commenting I might as well add a couple other differences. *Asian pears aren't easy to find (and expensive when I do), so I use 1/3 a 'sweeter type' of apple. I also add a tablespoon of plum sauce. And I use Chinese garlic chives with my veggies.* The hard part is having enough left over for kimchi stew a few weeks after making it. The whole family loves my kimchi! Thanks for the video!
I’m definitely gonna try this recipe! I’ve been asking my mom for the recipe but her recipe is always “about this much” and “little bit of” haha. Love how you have your recipe using measuring cups for a small batch!
Yes, it is nice to get more accurate measurements for complicated recipes. But once you have made some then you can go to the "little of this, some of that" type of cooking that signifies a real cook. All the recipes I got from my mother were "some of this, some of that, a little of this, a pinch of that." And my favorite cook book from the earlier part of the last century for the most part just gives the ingredients and expects those cooking to know about how much. And I also really liked your video and kimchi methods. Thanks
Can’t wait to make this! Oh How I miss Jeannie Gartman! A master friend, Fairy God Mother, Devoted Sensei in life, art, cooking, sewing, advice, shopping warrior, etc! She was amazing at Everything! Oh how thankful I am that she cared for me as a newborn baby and was present all during my life, and any the Grace of God- He allowed me to be hers & Billy’s caretakers in their finals years and days. Billy was also amazing- always bragging that he changed my diapers! He was a master Gardener, Farmer, friend, trusted Worthy Advisor, a true hero in the US Air Force retiring as a Senior Master Sergeant! A friend to all who was blessed to know him. Always willing to help anyone. Jeannie’s amazing recipes are so good and I would give anything if I could go back and learn from them again!
Although I have made kimchi at home before, the tips and tricks you have mentioned during the video really saved the day! Thank you and looking forward to more videos!
OMG you seem like a very sweet lady, and a sweet mom. I'm assuming the other young lady in the video is your daughter. You're so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing. A lot of people out there show videos of making Kimchi in bulk which makes it hard for first timers to replicate it with just one Napa cabbage.
Thank you SOOOO SOOO MUCH! We love your channel, we live in Canada and really enjoy Korean flavours! We went to Korea a few times as we have always loved the traditional dishes :) Stay well, and we are so grateful!! Sincerely, Japanese/Canadian Family
I have wanted to learn how to make kimchi for a long time. I finally tackled it and decided on your recipe in this video, and I am so glad I did! The way you demonstrated making it really inspires confidence because you explained everything in detail. My first batch came out excellent, and I made a second batch that is fermenting in my fridge right now, which came out even better. It is so delicious! I look forward to making more of your recipes👍
Oh that's awesome to hear!!! I'm glad my recipe and video was helpful and hope you find many more recipes you love here and on my website. Thank you so much!!
After looking at dozens of recipes we settled on yours. Your video instructions are an excellent balance of simplicity and detail. Just finished making our first batch of kimchi. Found the gochugaru, sweet rice flour, saeujeot at a little Korean grocery tucked away on the next block. Found no Mu (Korean radish) so used Daikon. As to salt used course Kosher salt which isn't iodized. Our pre-ferment taste test was satisfactory - salty but not too salty. Looking forward the finished product in two weeks. Anticipation - Anticipa-a-tion is making us wait . . . .
I'd love to know how this batch from almost a year ago ended up turning out. Have you made kimchi often since? If so, I'd LOVE for you to upload a video on the things you learned the hard way or the most important tips for inexperienced cooks to be aware of. I wonder which country you're in? Anyhow, I love reading that other people search for the best online tutorials and follow them too. :D
I am so grateful for this video!! I've been so intimidated about making kimchi at home and I was wishing I had a teacher who could step me through it all! This helps me so much!! I can't wait to try making this! Very straightforward explanation! Thank you so much!
Hello, I just watched your video, this is amazing! Thanks for sharing your traditions. What size of container are you using there for that recipe? Also, is there too long to ferment? How long will it store ?
I tried your recipe and WoW!! Sooo Good!! I tried it fresh and it tasted excellent! Last time that I tried to make Kimchi (before PC laptops), I tried to make kimchi but the recipe was nothing like yours- no paste- no Pear- no Shrimp- etc. It was a disaster. I asked a Korean grocer for his recipe and tried again. It turned out really good...so good that I kept snacking on it until one day it got 'moldy'. I had to throw it out. This time I am resisting the snacking desire, keeping it air tight with occasional burping, and buying some pork belly to fry up when the kimchi is ready from the fridge. Thanks for all of the fool proof information. Please make more kimchi videos for us!-- Maybe Red cabbage, or Broccoli, or Cauliflower, or Pumpkin kimchi recipes? Thanks again!
Just finished making this recipe. Now for the magic to begin! It smells awesome. I hope it tastes good. I really like this recipe because you mention it is ok to leave the cabbage in the salt water for 6-8 hours. I have never left it for that long but I think..I hope...it will make it even easier to digest.
That enormous, beautiful cabbage, oh what a specimen! I'm in the UK and our napa cabbages are scrawny, flaccid, underweight things. Yours look so incredibly healthy in terms of how they've been grown, transported and kept in store. They look crunchy and just beautiful in colour and shape. I'm so envious. I love these kimchi making videos for smaller batches that less experienced cooks can try at home. I made a wonderful batch a few months ago and tried to replicate my success last week and failed dismally. I wish I knew what I did wrong. Thus, I return to my mentors here on RUclips and try once more. Thank you so much for sharing your time and expertise with us hungry, determined and experimental cooks!
I appreciate your style of teaching because I feel confident in trying your recipe! Thank you. I am looking forward to the dishes I can create with Kimchi! Blessings! to you & your family
I'm an Indian I too wanted to try kimchi so I have seen RUclips videos who suggested according to Indian available products like normal cabbage n all but I just wanted to know properly the ingredients list so I googled there it took to a website where you have addressed ingredients names and the process details with video...I hope to do as much authentically as possible very soon 😊
I been watching videos to learn how to make kimchi and I will go to the Asian market tomorrow to buy everything I need . I can’t wait to start. Thank you your video is so informative for sure
Thank you for the easy instructions and tutorial!! I now have 6 quart jars of AMAZING looking kimchi fermenting on my kitchen counter!! It’s bubbling... still a bit sweet so waiting another day or two before I refrigerate :) :)
@@koreanbapsang6835 So delicious and flavorful! Great ferment! Made another huge batch with a friend a few months later- via zoom- and plan on doing another batch in the New Year. I’ll be using your video ;) Happy Holidays!
Hello from London. This is a wonderful recipe. Kimchi is something I would like to have as a constant as it seems to go with everything. Even the traditional English roast. Thank you so much 🌺
선생님 안녕하세요 your videos are so beautifully made. I have come across your posting many times but only carefully looked into your website about 2~3 days ago and I have found many recipe for the dishes I love. Thank you for sharing your recipe with us. I'm amazed at your recipe printing part 👍
Thank you so much for your instructive videos! I have read through and tried many of your recipes on the website but never knew that you have a RUclips channel! 😳🤩😍 please make more videos because it is like your words turned into live actions😃 ! Beautiful!
this is one of the most informative traditional kimchi videos, thank you! and it looks so beautiful the individual little bundles of cabbage. i would love to see the version where you're doing the whole box of cabbage! can't wait to try this
A few questions: 1) how long will it last in the refrigerator? 2) can I use half that amount of gochugaru if I can’t handle too much spice, or will that throw off the taste? 3) my friend’s halmeoni added raw oysters to hers, is that acceptable here or would it require a different recipe? Thanks!! Planning on trying this this weekend!
Oh sorry this is probably late for your weekend plan, but here are my answers: 1) Properly made kimchi lasts weeks to months. 2) Yes you can. It will just be a lighter kimchi. 3) Oysters are fine for this recipe.
I've been wanting to try kimchi for a while now but I have been super nervous about it. The kind we have in our store, I was told isn't that good. I am so glad to have come across your video. The instructions are so clear! I'm the type to need clear instructions lol. Thank you so much ! I also seen somewhere where you have to open the container every so often so it doesn't explode for lack of better word. Is this true?
Great video. Thanks for all the explanations and tips. I am a bit confused about when you can start eating it... I saw you stored yours in plastic containers. So this is ok to do? I don't need to buy glass jars? Does the fermenting kimchi need air? Someone said that while it ferments keep the lid loose so it doesn't explode...?
That container is made in Korea for the purpose of storing kimchi. Glass jars are better options than regular plastic containers. It shouldn't explode if you keep it in the fridge.
Following your guidance for the first time after a number of my trials using other recipes I have successfully made kimchi that tastes exactly like good one from Korean restaurants. Thank you and keep sharing your videos please. During your videos you also shared insights into why and how things would turn out this way or that way in a concise manner. It makes a big difference for viewers and helps them replicate the steps easily and creatively to fit their own taste.
What can I use in stead of fish and shrimp sauce. And how long can I keep it for, once it’s done. I love the way you talk and explain, very calm and natural. Definitely new subscriber
You can use salt to season the kimchi, in combination with Korean soup soy sauce or vegan fish sauce if you can find it. This type of kimchi lasts for months in the fridge, although it will get very sour and softer over time. When kimchi gets sour, it's great to cook with. Thank you for the nice words and subscription!!
Jus made my first batch (ever). The only ingredients I couldn't find where the Korean radish and the greens. Still, thank you for detailed instructions. It gave me the courage to try.
You certainly can leave it out longer to expedite the fermentation, but slow fermentation (aging) at low temp is better for the depth of kimchi flavor.
Thank you for a great recipe! I live in deep South USA so can I substitute our Southern mustard greens for the Korean mustard leaf? I love the sharp bitter taste and would like to find out if it would be successful in kimchi.
Thank you so much for this video! I absolutely love kimchi and find that buying mass produced is not as appetizing as my friends grandmother’s and I don’t want to keep asking for some. I am going to make some this coming weekend. Quick question, do I leave it out of the refrigerator for more fermentation or after two days, leave it in the fridge for more fermentation? How long can it last in the refrigerator? Again, thank you!!!
Hi thank you for the video also tips and trick you share. I saw that you are using the raw shrimp and salted shrimp and taste it without cooking it first. I’m just wondering if its safe to eat the raw shrimp and salted shrimp bought in the market (even though its fermented)? Or maybe should I buy special type of shrimp ? I really want to try this recipe with shrimp, glad if you can answer to this. Thank you in advance. I hope you all stay safe ☺️
Hi Stefami! Yes it's fine, thanks to the salt level fermentation. I wouldn't have used it otherwise. I've been eating kimchi this way all my life, so have a lot of other Koreans. You should always buy good quality fresh seafood. I sometimes use frozen shrimp too.
This was an excellent instructional video. I just put my kimchi in the kimchi fermenting box. I did not have any large outer leave to wrap it in or put on top. My cabbage was just shy of 4 lbs so I adjusted amounts. The PDF of the recipe does not include the Korean pear or the mustard. I went back and forth and look forward to the results. Question - do I burp the fermenter daily or leave the little tab stop open when putting the cover on?
Glad to see you are finally on RUclips! I hv been going to your website for years as my first choice for authentic korean recipes, not Maangchi but Koreanbapsang. You’re the best.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi I just found this video and I live in Scotland and I am wonder if I can’t get Korean pear if it could substituted with an apple or a standard uk pear? I’m not familiar with the flavour of a Korean pear. Really want to try making my own as I’m obsessed with kimchi 😋 and the store bought just isn’t it 😂 Hope I don’t get lost as it’s been a few years since video was made 🙈 ❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! It is clear and easy to follow, and I found your advice about salting and brining the cabbage very useful. It was my first time making kimchi, I followed your recipe and it worked really well! I will be making it again. Thank you ❤
Hello! Thank You for the recipe definitely, I will try it out! As in my local stores, I cannot find any delicious kimchi anymore. So, this time I finally would like to make it on my own, and this recipe does help to understand the process. I just have one question for the measurement in cups, how much is it in ml or fl oz? ( approximately) Thank You and have a nice day!
@@koreanbapsang6835 The liquid ingredients: water, dashima broth, how much approximately could be a 1 cup into ml. Also, the amount of Korean coarse sea salt, gochugaru and salted shrimp (saeujeot) how much approximately those could be in grams? Thank You again for helping me to understand this delicious looking recipe!
Thank you so much for this very detailed recipe and beautiful video! Is there an advantage to keep the cabbage more intact? Other videos people chop the cabbage into small pieces right away.
Great recipe! We are definitely trying at home! Do you have some ideas how can I substitute the shrimp (I'm allergic :( ) and fish to make it vegan? Thank you!
Wow that looks really tasty. I would love to attempt to make this recipe, but I'm not sure if I have the skills to make it look so good. So how long can your store this Kimchi once you make it?
Do you not have to put the kimchi in a brine when you ferment it? When I made my first and only batch, I placed my cabbage in a jar and filled it up with water until the kimchi was fully submerged. Was that a bad idea? Great video!
No that's not how this type of kimchi is made and fermented. Kimchi doesn't need to be submerged in water for fermentation. Water will also dilute the seasoning. There are types of kimchi (aka water kimchi) that are made with a lot more water/broth, because the broth is enjoyed with the vegetables like a soup. Dongchimi and nabak kimchi are two examples.

Perfect way to start making kimchi for the first time for my Umma by starting small and after doubling and tripling etc. Thank you for teaching! 🙏
I am head over heels into Korean cuisine and KDrama. Love this channel
Great! I love Kdrama as well. Thank you!
Every time I made this, I always ended up a little short with the sauce for my last quarter of cabbage. These days I separate the sauce into quarters so I don't have to open the others back up to rob a little. _Extra work I know, but it works better for me._
While I'm commenting I might as well add a couple other differences.
*Asian pears aren't easy to find (and expensive when I do), so I use 1/3 a 'sweeter type' of apple. I also add a tablespoon of plum sauce. And I use Chinese garlic chives with my veggies.*
The hard part is having enough left over for kimchi stew a few weeks after making it. The whole family loves my kimchi!

I’m definitely gonna try this recipe! I’ve been asking my mom for the recipe but her recipe is always “about this much” and “little bit of” haha. Love how you have your recipe using measuring cups for a small batch!

You certainly can leave it out longer to expedite the fermentation, but slow fermentation (aging) at low temp is better for the depth of kimchi flavor.

Thank you so much for this video! I absolutely love kimchi and find that buying mass produced is not as appetizing as my friends grandmother’s and I don’t want to keep asking for some. I am going to make some this coming weekend. Quick question, do I leave it out of the refrigerator for more fermentation or after two days, leave it in the fridge for more fermentation? How long can it last in the refrigerator? Again, thank you!!!
Will definitely be trying this recipe. I can’t eat kimchi but my husband loves it. 👍👍👍
Yes do it!!!
Hi thank you for the video also tips and trick you share. I saw that you are using the raw shrimp and salted shrimp and taste it without cooking it first. I’m just wondering if its safe to eat the raw shrimp and salted shrimp bought in the market (even though its fermented)? Or maybe should I buy special type of shrimp ? I really want to try this recipe with shrimp, glad if you can answer to this. Thank you in advance. I hope you all stay safe ☺️
Hi Stefami! Yes it's fine, thanks to the salt level fermentation. I wouldn't have used it otherwise. I've been eating kimchi this way all my life, so have a lot of other Koreans. You should always buy good quality fresh seafood. I sometimes use frozen shrimp too.
This looks yummy! Your kimchi is kind of like Maangchi’s but with some differences so I look forward to trying your version.
Please do! Everyone makes kimchi differently.
Thank you for this, i will make my own kimchi from now on. ♥
Great! That's the best way!!
Just discovered your channel. I'm excited to watch your videos. Thanks!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy them. Thank you!!
I'm allergic to shellfish. Is there a substitute or can the fish sauce be increased? ~ Thank you!
Yes you can increase the fish sauce. Thanks!
This was an excellent instructional video. I just put my kimchi in the kimchi fermenting box. I did not have any large outer leave to wrap it in or put on top. My cabbage was just shy of 4 lbs so I adjusted amounts. The PDF of the recipe does not include the Korean pear or the mustard. I went back and forth and look forward to the results.
Question - do I burp the fermenter daily or leave the little tab stop open when putting the cover on?
Glad it was helpful! No you don't need to burp. Just make sure you have room at the top for the kimchi to expand as it ferments.
God bless all mothers .... man i love food
And you miss are looking lovely
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the recipe🥰 I've made it, and it's so tasty❤ Greetings💐
Great to hear that! Thanks!
Leave the skins of the carrots and radish, as that really helps in producing yeast and lab.
Glad to see you are finally on RUclips! I hv been going to your website for years as my first choice for authentic korean recipes, not Maangchi but Koreanbapsang. You’re the best.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!!!
Thank you for the very detailed explanation!
You’re welcome! I hope it helps!
Hi I just found this video and I live in Scotland and I am wonder if I can’t get Korean pear if it could substituted with an apple or a standard uk pear? I’m not familiar with the flavour of a Korean pear.
Really want to try making my own as I’m obsessed with kimchi 😋 and the store bought just isn’t it 😂
Hope I don’t get lost as it’s been a few years since video was made 🙈
❤❤
You can omit pear. Kimchi will still taste good. Yes an apple is good also. Hope you try making it soon.
Thank you, definitely trying this recipe if I can find the ingredients here in Whangarei nz
Please do!
thank you so much for this recipe! please show us how to make tteokbokki some time
You're welcome! Filmed it. Hopefully get it edited soon.
Can you make a video on how to make Yeongeun jorim please! 🙏🏼❤️
noted!
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! It is clear and easy to follow, and I found your advice about salting and brining the cabbage very useful. It was my first time making kimchi, I followed your recipe and it worked really well! I will be making it again. Thank you ❤
Wonderful! Thanks for trying it and letting me know how it went!
Hello! Thank You for the recipe definitely, I will try it out! As in my local stores, I cannot find any delicious kimchi anymore. So, this time I finally would like to make it on my own, and this recipe does help to understand the process. I just have one question for the measurement in cups, how much is it in ml or fl oz? ( approximately)
Thank You and have a nice day!
Glad the recipe is helpful! Depending on the ingredient. Which one are you talking about?
@@koreanbapsang6835 The liquid ingredients: water, dashima broth, how much approximately could be a 1 cup into ml. Also, the amount of Korean coarse sea salt, gochugaru and salted shrimp (saeujeot) how much approximately those could be in grams? Thank You again for helping me to understand this delicious looking recipe!
Thank you so much for this very detailed recipe and beautiful video! Is there an advantage to keep the cabbage more intact? Other videos people chop the cabbage into small pieces right away.
There are different types of kimchi. I have both types on my website. Please check them out to read about the differences.
@@koreanbapsang6835 Thank you so much! I didn’t know you had a website. I will check it out
Great recipe! We are definitely trying at home! Do you have some ideas how can I substitute the shrimp (I'm allergic :( ) and fish to make it vegan?
Thank you!
Thank you! Try my vegan kimchi recipe: www.koreanbapsang.com/vegan-kimchi/
@@koreanbapsang6835 perfect thanks!
돌아와서 반가워요. Welcome back
Thank you!
Wow that looks really tasty. I would love to attempt to make this recipe, but I'm not sure if I have the skills to make it look so good. So how long can your store this Kimchi once you make it?
You can store it for a long time, weeks or sometimes months, if it lasts that long.
Luv and support from Brazil!!!!
Awesome Channel!!!!
this one looks like the real deal, great video thank you
It is! Thank YOU!!
Thank you so much for the wonderful video!
looks amazing but i can't get korean pear in the uk so i was wondering if there was anything i could substitute for it ❤
You can use bosc pear or apple instead or omit it.
thank you so much ❤️
This is your backyard?! wah!! I hope is my backyard one day..
Love this.. 감사합니다.
😘 😘 😉
Thank you!
Thank you 🙏 looks delicious and the hard work paid off. I like the long gloves so handy hahaha 😝 but seriously I will add that to my order list!
they are very helpful! try them.
Do you not have to put the kimchi in a brine when you ferment it? When I made my first and only batch, I placed my cabbage in a jar and filled it up with water until the kimchi was fully submerged. Was that a bad idea?
Great video!
No that's not how this type of kimchi is made and fermented. Kimchi doesn't need to be submerged in water for fermentation. Water will also dilute the seasoning. There are types of kimchi (aka water kimchi) that are made with a lot more water/broth, because the broth is enjoyed with the vegetables like a soup. Dongchimi and nabak kimchi are two examples.
@@koreanbapsang6835 Thank you! I'll have to try it without the brine next time!
This looks so good and fun to make
Great Video!
Does the container need to be airtight?
Thanks! Yes it should be.
Great tutorial!! My kim chee came out great!
So happy to hear that! Thank you so much for trying it out!
Can you also use salted shrimp paste instead of the salted fermented shrimp
That's not a Korean ingredient, but you can try it if you want.
Great instructional video! thank you. i will try this
Thanks! Let me know how it goes.
Yum. I made some, sooo good 👍😊
Glad it turned out well for you!
