    kimchi has become immensely popular in Estonia. Probably because we already have our own fermented (regular) cabbage with grated carrots, cumin seeds and salt. That tho includes a stomping process which is physically hard.
    our weather has become very humind, chilly, rainy, it feels colder than dry -20C which would be normal. so I guess the spicy kimchi helps us banish that humidity and dampness. but I am not sure how many are making it right. making the rice flour base for the sauce etc. I won´t give my recipe but it is pretty good. I also add kimchi to stews and soups. trouble is napa cabbages are mostly poor quality here.

      Cool! I’m not ambitious enough to make my own so I depend on commercial kimchi that comes from Chicago.

        I make it mostly because then I know what´s in it. and there is not a lot of commercial kimchi available here, the offer is mostly from either korean restaurants or people making it at home ( there is one rapper-poet whose kimchi is very popular)
