Home made kimchi just finished fermenting this morning. Tastes pretty good. Easy to make too!

@elftummy @D-Droid Addenum: could you post quantities or at least estimates of quantities for each ingredient used? Also details on your procedure

@elftummy @D-Droid This counts as based fedi cookan, will be giving this a shot myself. Definiely going to go for a longer fermentation period though as I love getting hit by a truck flavour-wise :acedefective:

@D-Droid depends on how tangy you like it. I like mine to be a light-medium level of tang so I ferment it for two days.
My basic recipe needs these ingredients:
Napa cabbage
Red onion (most recipes use leek &/or scallion but red is better IMHO)
Garlic
Sushi ginger
Rice vinegar
Fish sauce (I used worstershire)
Gochujang paste
Korean chili powder (I couldn't find this so I substituted laoganma chili sauce)

@elftummy How long does it take to ferment/ what’s the process?
I’m been thinking about trying to do kimchi myself since you can only find it in ritzy shitlib grocers for exorbitant prices
