The end was very relatable. I am Mexican American. I used to get so sick of my mom’s Mexican food. Once I left for college and lived in a new city with no authentic Mexican options, I missed it so much. It’s really easy to take your culture’s food for granted until you’re away from it. I’ve learned to cook some Mexican dishes but there are so many more I need to learn! I hope we can all carry our culture’s recipes and pass it on to our children ♥️
Jessica Pearson, read the room. No one who watches this channel is interested in reading your xenophobic comments especially since she created a video about the tradition of preparing Kimchi together crouching around a large bowl. Regarding your alleged "concern" about hygiene better read about sanitary conditions diseases in the meat processing industry. Slaughtered animal carcasses covered in faecal matter and pus. Bon appetit!
@@Sad_bumper_sticker. Yeeeees!! It is very clear that some people aren’t exposed to other cultures, and their traditions. If it was so unsanitary millions of Koreans would be dead! Just plain ignorant!
I love that you are doing it old school style. I love your kimchi squat! What a beautiful tradition you have preserved for us to experience and learn from.
I’ve probably watched this video a dozen times and I never tire of it. You are lucky to have such a connection to your heritage and family. I am living vicariously through you since I am adopted from Korea but have no ties or real understanding of my heritage. I am so grateful for these videos and your cookbook ♥️
This is amazing my friend loves Korean food and I wanted to make kimchi for her and I love all the instructions! Now I just hope I don’t mess it up like I normally do😅 You are amazing and so is your mom hope you guys have a wonderful day😆
This video was perfect! I loved watching you and your mother together. (And I'm absolutely jealous of the flexibility to squat - what I wouldn't give for the bendyness of youth. 😂) Your story at the end brought me to tears. ❤ Thank you.
I really enjoyed this video! With each new video I get a little more inspired to step out of my comfort zone and make something different. I'm making the Foccaccia bread first. But I was initially filling up my pantry with the Korean staples. Now I'm ready to bake. Thank you again!
Thank you so much for this video. I've been making kimchi for the last 3 years, trying to improve recipe every time. This vegan version looks fantastic. I'm going through a rough time this year and I've been postponing kimchi making for weeks. I think I just found my motivation again. Thank you, and a big hug from France to you and your close ones.
I found a brand of vegan kimchi at my local grocery store to try for the first time and I have eaten SO much over the last month 😂 I positively LOVE it, I eat it right out of the jar as well with rice, dumplings, noodles, etc. I can't wait to make it one day myself from scratch!
I just bought a copy of the cookbook and am so excited for all of this 🙏 the stories in the book and the podcast and everything have been my favorite bits too
To get all the way to the end of the video to nearly cry at the end is a very common thing when I watch your videos. I bought your book last year and haven’t made it last the intro because of how impactful it was to read about your family (among other life stressors of course) and I look forward to diving in in the new year. Thanks for all you do, Joanne. I loved this video much!
I’ve watched several videos on making kimchi. I love it so much but this is by far my favorite video. Just seems more authentic. I love most all of your videos and this is the first recipe I’m going to try! Thank you for your words of wisdom and sharing your wonderful recipes with us!
I absolutely love your videos. Your stories are so relatable and comforting. I like how you embrace all moments of your life, even the ones that were not so good. You find the good in the bad. You are a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
You my favorite Korean vegan you are not only sharing recipe here but love, healing and culture being celebrated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤🙏🏽
Happy Christmas to you and all your loved ones! What a beautiful present to share with your viewers, thank you. Maybe now I'll be brave enough to make my own kimchi.
I really enjoyed watching this video with you and your mother and your sister. The way they respect you, the way you respect them, and the way you all respect your culture is just beautiful. The way you enjoy the kimchi, and share the history and importance of what it means to you from back then to now is just amazing. Thank you for sharing so much of your truth and being real with us. I feel really blessed that I got a chance to actually watch something this beautiful and have the recipe to look back on. God bless you.
What an absolutely beautiful family tradition ❤ Thank you so much for sharing your special family recipe with us 🥰 You can tell this recipe is a true labor of love ❤
I just finished making this and it tastes so good! Korean food has always been my comfort food. Kimchi jigae is my chicken soup when I’m ill. Thank you so much!
Hi I am just catching up on all your videos and content. It was lovely to see your mum and I really liked listening to her instructions. Especially liked how she wrapped up the cabbage after saucing. Listening to you about growing up in the US is a similar story for any migrant child, which ever country they are in the world. We will always try to fit into our adoptive environment. I’m glad you didn’t lose your Korean heritage and culture it’s very very special.
This is an amazing process so wholesome but so much work but looks well worth it. Video saved lol so excited to make it but I've never tasted it lol wish me luck
Your mother is a lovely lady. Thank you for sharing your recipes it has been a joy to watch. Wishing your mother, father, Anthony and you wonderful holidays. 🎄❄☃️
So love your stories; my mom passed away 2012 and not a day goes by that I don’t miss her. Thank you for sharing your recipes and giving me a sense of my mom’s presence. Love you! And love your beautiful book! I keep it displayed on my counter ❤️
Thank you for going into such detail, I’ve been wanting to make kimchi for years now but have been afraid of fermentation. Definitely going to try it out!
This was incredible! Love listening to your voice and watching the work of the women in your family! Like you It took me many years to appreciate the importance of family. I was the terror in my mothers life. She could do nothing to please me. Now she’s gone and I struggle to recall some of the listens she tried to convey to me. While she prepared food I’d sneak out backwards! Called her old fashioned and rolled my eyes to her many lessons. Sorry Mom!
Your mom is so cute! Thanks for sharing. Got to try this! I also love that this is such a family activity. It reminds me of cooking with my grandma. She was Ukrainian American. Cooking was a communal activity in our family. We all shared the work and then the food.
What a wonderful gift 🤗🤗. This means so so much.. It's history in the making.. Over and over again the emotions that you stir are family and beautiful memories... Thank you So much.. I'm always humbled.. And forever grateful that you are meeting your calling.. And your mother is just as stunning as you... GORGEOUS..
I love that you are willing to share your know-how of recreating Korean food with Vegan substitutes. There’s something very selfless in your giving, right down to this video of showing the making of the mysterious Kimchi. I want to try it!
I remember seeing one of your short, minute-long videos when you talked about the time you posted a picture of you and your mother squatting on the floor as you made kimchi. With that video and the ignorant comments that came with that Twitter post in mind, it would've saddened me to see you salting the kim chi any other way in this video. That being said, I am happy you did it how you did growing up
Wonderful video. Hi from Germany! I just bought your cookbook (after a recommendation from Nik Sharma in his newsletter a few months ago) - and was curious to see how you actually fold the cabbage into packages, so i looked it up on youtube. Was great to see your mother do and explain it! Will make Kimchi following your recipe the next time I make it!
I made this for the first time yesterday after rereading the pages in your book. This video totally helped with the visual aspect as well as the positive vibes. I plan on making my own kimchi as much as possible for life after my first trial run. Thank you for your book and your work Joanne!
@@TheKoreanVegan Oh, wonderful! I love the idea of stretching a vegetable in so many ways. I also made your recipe for Korean Vegan Fried Chicken last Saturday. Top notch recipe!!!! Can't wait for your next book!
Dear Joanne, I am from India. I love your recipes, I love your words of advice, and I love your content. You really changed my life for the better. I hope you know that you are one of those lady who I admire till the end of time. Thank you for everything.
Your cookbook has been in my Amazon cart for sometime. I just happened upon it one day. I didn't know you had a RUclips channel. As I'm preparing to visit Seoul and Busan in a few months, I wanted to start exploring authentic Korean foods. However, I'm allergic to shellfish. So buying prepackaged foods at my local H-mart is risky. Being that Kimchi is a staple in Korean cuisine it's one of the first things I wanted to try and learn to make. That's how I found your channel. And when I saw the book in the intro, I was like 'Oh! This is her.' This video is sooo touching. It just emphasized why I have fallen in love with Korean culture over the past year. I love the tradition of preparing the kimchi as a group. And I loved your expressions at the end of the video. I look forward to making this Kimchi in my home and also trying many more of your recipes. 항상 건강하세요.
It's so interesting to see that people no matter what can wish they were something else. I have always WISHED we had family traditions growing up, cultural dishes and history passed down. Just a plain ol' American mutt with no idea of our background. But I get the wanting to fit in, it's just so sad though that the world is the way it is that a child would think they need to deny who they are to fit in or please someone else. Growing up we ate pretty typical American foods. But every dish I made when my girls were growing up was either authentic Italian dishes, or Mexican, Chinese. I am so glad to see you appreciate your heritage now and I am loving learning a new cuisine from your channel and can't wait to share what I have learned with my daughters, and of course my granddaughters who are continuing the love of food and cooking.
Among the food culture of Korea, special things that distinguish it from the food culture of other countries. // 1. Perfect vegan food represented by Korean Buddhist temple food 2. An endless variety of soup dishes 3. Kimchi: Vegetables fermented with animal protein represented by cabbage kimchi. In the past, only Koreans made and ate it. There are over 800 types of kimchi. 4. Jeotgal: A fermented animal-based sauce made from seafood. In Korea, there are more than 140 different types of salted fish. 5. Ssam: It means wrapping all the ingredients you want to eat in various leafy vegetables represented by lettuce. However, unlike burritos, you have to swallow them in one bite, so you need to adjust the amount of ingredients to be wrapped appropriately. 6. Herbal Medicine Ingredients : Herbal medicine ingredients are not only eaten for special diseases or health, but are also often used for general home cooking. For example, as ingredients for Samgye-tang, Mulberry, Tree Aralia, Eleutherococcus Sessiliflorus, Mongolian Milkvetch, Korean Angelica Ginger, Jujube and Korean Ginseng are used. 7. Namul : South Korea is the country that eats the most dishes made with only vegetables without meat and seafood protein. Namul are foods made with one edible plant as the main ingredient. Examples of the types of Namul include Shepherd's Purse, Stringy Stonecrop, Korean Angelica-tree, Korean Wild Chive, Butterbur, Bracken, Doellingeria Scabra, Bamboo Shoot, Chamnamul and Cirsium Setidens. // Etc... Korea shows a distinctly different food culture from neighboring countries in Far East Asia (China, Mongolia, Vietnam, Japan).
Amazing :) I can't wait to make this with my Korean friend. I had a similar story with Indigenous Mexican food----referring to the story you shared at the very end of the video. All of my childhood I hated being Mexican/Indigenous, due to bullying and such, and I did my best to pass as white since I was biracial. As a result, I hated Mexican food and would refuse to eat it. My white mother isn't very supportive of the lifestyle changes I make to reconnect with my culture now that I am 17, but I remember the shocked expression my aunt had when she saw me cooking/eating Mexican food with my abuela, just a couple months ago. She exclaimed in Spanish, "Bryan eats Mexican food?!?! And he can COOK IT?!?!". I didn't realize that was the first time my family saw me genuinely enjoy our culture, but now I feel lucky to have their embrace because not only did I heal myself, but I brought clarity to my Mexican family, too. I love your stories because they hit a very deep and complicated part of my heart with perfect precision; they inspire me to do the same and share my multicultural experiences as well. Thank you Joanne, and merry Christmas
As a child, my family preserved the cabbage, we harvested, by making an version of sauerkraut. Our family did not add seasonings or aromatics to the fermentation. After it fermented my family packed it into quart jars and processed it in a hot water bath canner. It became shelf stable. Our sauerkraut was served with processed meats. Lol, my brothers and I did not like the smell, taste, or texture. For starters, the large amounts of salt were never rinsed from the cabbage. Cooking all the heavily salted cabbage with sodium filled meat was unappealing. We were scolded for being picky, ungrateful and rebellious. When I became an adult and was given a chance to try a proper sauerkraut, I really like it. Now I make my own fermented veggies. Thank You for allowing us to spend precious time with your Mother. A blessing indeed! I would be thrilled to try your recipe.
What a beautiful story and beautiful episode! Shame on those haters criticizing your momma. She’s a beautiful lady. I loved seeing you two together. Makes me miss my own mom so much - gone 5 years.
My friend owned a Korean restaurant. For years, I used to eat lunch there every day. I usually had cabbage kimchi and rice. I had no idea how much time she spent making that kimchi! My favorite kimchi that she made was oi-sobagi. The ending to this video was very touching. THANK YOU for sharing.
Thank you for this receipe , the process was very similar to receipe of making mango pickle in india which is basically fermented and spiced raw mango so good to see similarities in both cultures and please do try mango pickle recipe you gonna love it ❤❤
I’m so excited to plan a Kimchi day with my お母さん and some friends. We’re gonna have food and communal preparations on the floor and everything. It’ll be really fun.
So amazed and touched when your mouth says "Amma/Omma"!!! 🥰🥰 we call our mothers" Amma" too.. Same exact pronunciation that you say!! ❤❤ Any 1 year old and 4 year old kids friendly rice and vegetables recipe?? Maybe from Amma(Omma)'s experience.. Btw my 4 year old daughter is already your fan and we are having kkanpoong tofu for rice every week a day.. My 1 year old boy is the one that gives me tough.. Can i ask you this? What foods amma used to give for weaning and for little children? Coz we don't do wraps or bread often.. Rice is our staple too.. That's why.. Thanks for all your advices💛💛💛 through the videos.. 🔥💓💞

Same! 🥲 But I'm glad you're learning to cook more of our food. I had to learn a lot as well
I love the communal preparation on the floor! So many cultures do exactly this❤
It is a very good way to get dirt into your food. An awesome unhygienic way to make food 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I love that you are doing it old school style. I love your kimchi squat! What a beautiful tradition you have preserved for us to experience and learn from.
Only a few mins in and absolutely love this. Love the family and traditional aspect of it.

That was so amazing to see. I can't believe how much work goes into making traditional home-made kimchi. Your mom is such a beautiful person.
The hardest part is waiting xD I made Kimchi now some times but the waiting-part ist so ugh, annoying and long
What a beautiful love letter to your mom, to kimchi, to Korean culture. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this.
Your mom is so beautiful!
This is amazing my friend loves Korean food and I wanted to make kimchi for her and I love all the instructions! Now I just hope I don’t mess it up like I normally do😅

This is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen. Watching your family squat together and make kimchi was such an honor. Thank you!
The end brought tears to my eyes. I know I was quite hard on my mom as a teenager, thankfully we have had a good relationship for many years since.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful tradition 💜
I was waiting for this moment. Thank you for the recipe ❤️
Your mom had a very gentle energy! Love You and her together 🤍🤍

Love the communal aspects of food preparation that is so beautifully cultural. Thank you for videos.
Thanks! I got your cookbook for my birthday and wanted to make the kimchi recipe but I was confused about how to wrap it. Seeing this really helped

A blessing indeed! I would be thrilled to try your recipe.
I am from India whenever I fel low I just love your videos you are cooking and motivating it's just amazing loads of love❤️
Cooking on the floor is so classic. Especially during big holidays when you cook for many people. Ahhhhh fond memories ❤❤❤

What a beautiful story and beautiful episode! Shame on those haters criticizing your momma. She’s a beautiful lady. I loved seeing you two together. Makes me miss my own mom so much - gone 5 years.
My friend owned a Korean restaurant. For years, I used to eat lunch there every day. I usually had cabbage kimchi and rice. I had no idea how much time she spent making that kimchi! My favorite kimchi that she made was oi-sobagi. The ending to this video was very touching. THANK YOU for sharing.
Love the end. I cried. ❤️
Hello darling I love watching u and u family making kimchi I love I just brought u book I hope I learned a lot from u thanks 🙏🏽 so much
You and your mother look great.
I luv the scene where the 3 women of your family are salting the cabbage. It gave me a sense of tradition and custom 👑🙏. Thank you
Thank you for this receipe , the process was very similar to receipe of making mango pickle in india which is basically fermented and spiced raw mango so good to see similarities in both cultures and please do try mango pickle recipe you gonna love it ❤❤
Your mom is so gorgeous.
I’m so excited to plan a Kimchi day with my お母さん and some friends. We’re gonna have food and communal preparations on the floor and everything. It’ll be really fun.
I’m obsessed with store bought kimchi I figure it’s time I attempt to make some myself!
So amazed and touched when your mouth says "Amma/Omma"!!! 🥰🥰 we call our mothers" Amma" too.. Same exact pronunciation that you say!! ❤❤
Any 1 year old and 4 year old kids friendly rice and vegetables recipe?? Maybe from Amma(Omma)'s experience..
Btw my 4 year old daughter is already your fan and we are having kkanpoong tofu for rice every week a day.. My 1 year old boy is the one that gives me tough.. Can i ask you this? What foods amma used to give for weaning and for little children? Coz we don't do wraps or bread often.. Rice is our staple too.. That's why..
Thanks for all your advices💛💛💛 through the videos.. 🔥💓💞
