Simple Vegan Kimchi Recipe--Step by Step Instructions for Beginners.

[@josephlim-c8q]

Wow, this video is such a gift-just in time for the holidays! As a fellow Korean-American, I grew up with kimchi as a staple in my home, but I’ve always been a little intimidated by the idea of making it myself. Your step-by-step instructions make it feel so approachable and fun. I love how you incorporate personal touches, like using Fuji apple and Korean pear for sweetness and sharing your mom’s special gochugaru-those details make this recipe even more special. I also really appreciate how you emphasize the labor and love that go into each batch. It’s so true that kimchi isn’t just food; it’s a connection to family, tradition, and culture. Your video inspired me to give homemade mak kimchi a try, and I’m thinking it’ll make a perfect Christmas gift for loved ones. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, passion, and memories with us. Wishing you and your family a warm and happy holiday season!

Let us know how it goes! I bet you will get calls or emails asking "for any 'extra' jars".

This is great for me! I am not vegan, but I do have a lot of food allergies (which is most of why I’m not vegan, actually) and I really don’t know how to adapt a kimchi recipe to my needs. This is absolutely a great first step for me as (upon first watch) there already isn’t anything I’m allergic to, although there might be in the ingredients, but I’ll figure that out when I get there. I’m in college right now, but once I have space to actually cook, this is absolutely going to be something I make!

[@frozenBird925]

This looks amazing! If I had more time and energy to put into cooking, I would definitely try this out. I respect anyone who puts that much effort to make kimchi from scratch

[@zepzour7391]

Looks delicious! And when the kimchi is done, I’m for sure using the giant kimchi bowl as a snow sled in the winter months! ❄️🛷 haha

[@aistepolikaityte5027]

Hello, Joanne, that this kimchi is the best that I have ever tried! Even my and my partner's moms are making it :) I want to sincerely thank You for sharing this recipe, best wishes ❤️❤️

[@Earendilgrey]

I have been wanting to make some homemade Kimchi for years now. I think that is one of the first things I will do in the new year. Just need to make a shopping list for the next time I go to the big Asian market in St. Louis.

[@andreawalker7138]

Thank you for this video! I have been wanting to make kimchi for a long time now but thought it would be a bit overwhelming. This recipe really looks so easy to make. I plan on making this recipe during Christmas vacation. Wish me luck!

[@TheKoreanVegan]

Good luck!! Let me know how it goes!

[@freshwindbrightsky]

Thank you! I will look for the plum sauce and Korean salt next time I go to a city. This looks amazing !😊

[@Anicca1060]

Hi!!!

[@EmorettaRobinson]

Making kimchi does seem like a long process. But the pulling the cabbage apart seems like a good upper body workout. I'm glad that you explained what every part of the process does. I thought the initial salting of the cabbage was to draw out any excess liquid. I didn't know that it actually pickles it.

[@gayathriomanandi]

❤ beautiful video and preparation thank you for sharing. I would love some of that. Eat kimchi atleast once a week. The store bought ones sometime taste like gasoline to me.

[@TheKoreanVegan]

I hear ya! Store-bought kimchi is def not always the best. 😖

[@faith-LW85-p9k]

I would love to hear more about the fermentation process.

[@jessi8543]

Amazing 😍😍😍😍😍

[@yeye55555]

Im so gonna try. U make this look easy enough anyway. Is it appropriation if I am not Korean?? I love kimchi

[@stan_Jesus_for_live_longer]

Can we use any type of salt of there's no Korean sea salt? Pls answer me

[@frozenBird925]

She says that Kosher salt is fine. You *could* probably use table salt too, but make sure to convert the ratio, since table salt is more sodium-dense (aka "saltier") than Korean sea salt or course Kosher salt

[@stan_Jesus_for_live_longer]

@@frozenBird925 thanks but the salts here in our country Philippines are probably saltier than Koreans sea salt or Kosher salt so we shouldn't put the salt a lot of at least melt it on the water to reduce saltiness? I mean if there's no Korean sea salt or Kosher salt here in our country we probably use the salts in here from our country

[@frozenBird925]

@@stan_Jesus_for_live_longer The ingredients are measured for Korean sea salt or course kosher salt. You "can" use any salt, but it probably won't taste the exact same

[@stan_Jesus_for_live_longer]

@frozenBird925 yeah but I think it's still delicious even if the taste is different

[@stan_Jesus_for_live_longer]

@frozenBird925 the sea salts that aren't Korean can be substitute too and it's the same as Korean one?

[@Elizabeth-d1n]

How does it ferment when there's no room for air to escape??

[@tarabooartarmy3654]

I made some vegan kimchi a couple of months ago but it didn’t taste salty enough and now I’m afraid to eat it. 😢

[@melinda-elisatatar4253]

Add more salt?

[@tarabooartarmy3654]

@@melinda-elisatatar4253the salt is critical for keeping it safe and helping it ferment so I’m worried it isn’t safe to eat.

I love kimchi on EVERYTHING. Once I tried to make it at home. Well let's just say I will stick to purchasing it from now on 😅 Clearly I did not do something correctly & instead of fermenting, I think it started grow bad bacteria. So I threw it out.

[@TheKoreanVegan]

I think what happened is you didn’t add enough salt. Or you exposed the top of the kimchi to air (instead of submerging it in sauce). But it isn’t mold! It’s yeast. You can just remove those pieces on top and the rest should be fine! You should try again 😊😊😊

[@rubyrage6993]

😋😋😋👍👍👍💯

[@JL-yt5hy]

I just completed making a whole variety of vegan kimchi 😂 my only concern is finding substitutes for the chilies powder which is impossible. All the chilies powder are made in China and I don’t want to eat food from China.

[@ipfreely]

Why do you pronounce kimchi in an English pronunciation? You should pronounce it in Korean, teach people how it properly pronounced. It’s gimchi not kimchi.
