#16  Geez, Sobiesky, if you're going to go through all that trouble, you might as well make your own kimchi instead. ;)

#15  Alas, kimchee is banned under at least three international strategic weapons treaties (along with lutefisk).

#14  I like kimchee, a lot more than I like chicken, but kimchee flavoured chicken sounds really good.

#12  Barb, I konkur, however... In the case kimchi is not available, sauerkraut may do--it also kontains lactic acid and is a rich source of vitamin C. Not the stuff in jars or kans, it has been pasteurized and made just... sour. The fermented whole kabbage head (usually in sealed plastic wrap) is good and also tastes different. The best thing is to make your own--a large (5 gallons) earthenware vessel stored in cold place filled with grated kabbage, several whole apples, several horseradish roots, generous amount of karraway seed and some salt (one spoon/gallon)...give it about 4 months to ferment. Eat as is--a side dish, don't kook (actually, it would taste so good that idea of kooking it would not kross your mind).

#11  Damn, Sgt, Mom - that's not even close to right!

Kimchee is good. (Spicy, but good. And crunchy.) Sauerkraut is, well, sour. It sucks.

But I luv ya' anyway. ;-p

#10  Goes great with spaghetti. And it's not even very spicy...

#9  Just think of kimchee as saurkraut with garlic and a bit of attitude...

#8  I knew a Korean owner of a "Japanese" steak house, whose four marriageable, but unmarried daughters still lived with him. For any bachelor who entered the place, he gave a free complimentary bowl of his 'private stock' kim chee, and you were his best buddy in the whole world. Ever seen a man with a look of desparation in his eyes?
