Product Description
For the Perfect Kim Chee at home - Fill a large container (pot, pan, etc.) with 1 gallon of water. Add 1 cup salt. Cut cabbage 1 1/2 inch by 2 inch in size. Place all of the cut cabbage into the container of water. Using a large, heavy dinner plate, keep the cabbage submerged under water for at least 8 hours. After this period, rinse the cabbage in tap water and drain in colander. Next, empty 1 package of NOH Korean Kim Chee Mix into the large container. Add 1/2 cup of water and mix well. Add the cabbage and mix thoroughly. After mixing, place cabbage in a quart-size container (ie. jar with a lid). Press the cabbage down firmly, allowing 1/4 space at the top. Close the lid and allow to stand for 1 day (unrefrigerated). This will develop the full flavor. Makes two (2) quarts of very spicy kim chee. Refrigerate.

Just say no August 14, 2008
I like kimchee and I enjoy cooking, so this looked like an interesting experiment. Well, now I know.br /br /My first suspicion came when I saw that this slim package, just a few tablespoons, alleged to season five pounds (over 2 kg) of cabbage. I like big flavors, so I figured I'd just use more. Then, the first step in preparation wilts the cabbage by soaking it for a few hours in salt water - a process that left a strong salty flavor that won't rinse off. It took some effort to get the lumps out of the mix, when I added the water it calls for, and finally figured the small ones remaining would dissolve on their own. The final product is what counts, though - I just didn't like it. It doesn't have the tang I want, it does have a sweetness I don't look for in kimchee, the spicy flavor doesn't come across as fresh, and I just don't care for the taste.br /br /So, I'll try another kimchee mix if I find one. I won't try this again. I hate wasting food, but I'm not sure I'll be able to finish this batch. I'm very disappointed.br /br /-- wiredweird
