Anna_N is right. There are some halal food shops over Itaewon in Korea, but I'm not sure they sell it it worldwide.

Hi! I'm also sticking to a halal-diet and I don't find it difficult to cook Korean food because most of the ingredients are vegetarian or based on seafood, at least the most important things like spices etc. Probably the Muslims in Korea have there own brands and shops, but most likely it's not exported to the rest of the world <3

The thing with Kimchi is you have some really good batches, you have some mediocre batches and sometimes you have bad batches. Even if you use the same exact ingredeints, same amounts, mixed it the same identical way it'll always be different. You just have to go with it. Sometimes Kimchi will taste horrible for 2-3 weeks and then all of a sudden it'll taste good. Somtimes it'll taste good in the first week and then taste bad the second week. It's just one of those things that comes with the territory of fermentation. Whenever my grandmother or mother made bad batches of kimchi they would just set it aside, sorta 'forget it' and then when the time came make stew, or pancakes or bokkeum or mixed noodles.

Hello good people! I need HELP!! My family love kimchi especially kakktugi! Being the youngest son who only know how to make it, I am the kimchi supplier for the family now. I have made my first trial batch last 2 weeks and it taste great!! It was finished within a week! So im making another batch now, but a BIGGER one! The last batch seems a little salty at the end but it is acceptable, so i reduces the juice to be poured in the new batch. But now it is LACKING of saltyness or rather sweetness, how should i do? It had been fermented for 2 days now.. and im starting to panic because this batch is BIG! and it matters when my family only learn to eat it raw(right out of jar)! Can i do anything like adding more flavors now?? Will it eventually taste better in a longer time?? Can I add juice from the last batch to the new batch?? And one more thing is that, does it really necessary to form bubbles on top of the jar? Because I DONT see any bubbles on top but i know it does ferment from the sour smell it has.

Are you able to get to any of these grocery stores in Malaysia? <a href="http://www.maangchi.com/shopping/malaysia" rel="nofollow">http://www.maangchi.com/shopping/malaysia</a> Kimchi shouldn't taste overwhelmingly garlicky. I think it might be the missing hot pepper powder.

hi,i just wondering the taste of kimchi should be. try making one using easy kimchi recipe. i follow exact measurement except i replace the sweet rice flour with glutinous rice flour (i've read here somewhere)and replace hot pepper powder with grinded dried chilli since that is all i can get. but it the garlic taste is quite strong for me. since i nver taste real kimchi before, so i wonder if it should taste that way. help me please.

Hey guys! I'm Clement from Petaling Jaya, Malaysia and I'm currently studying Industrial Design in University of New South Wales in Sydney. I'm 19 years old and love cooking very much. I wasn't really interested into cooking before until the time when I'm going to start my university life soon. Like many other university students, I've got to learn how to cook for the first time to feed myself, friends and families, anytime and anywhere. At that time, my dream is not only just to cook for survival, but to cook some real yummy food with passion and love. I also wanted to cook and learn something different... and Korean food has started my wonderful journey. I chose Korean food instead of other cuisines because Korean food is very underrated and not as popular as French, Italian, Japanese, Thai, Chinese and etc. That was my main reason because I like to try new things. Besides that, I found that Korean cooking is not that complicated and the ingredients are relatively easy to find. What I love about Korean food is that we treat Korean food as our medicine. A lot of Korean dishes are well-known for their medicinal or healing properties such as Kimchi (김치), Hobajuk (호박죽), Doenjang jjigae ((된장찌개) and many more. Moreover, I like the fact that Korean food is not over-spiced so that we could smell and taste the original flavour of the dishes. Korean cooking always uses fresh and healthy ingredients which is why Korean diet is one of the healthiest diets in the world. There are so many ways that I could describe Korean food, It's very simple and honest cooking, lots of different flavours, colourful, healthy, artistic and etc. I would always use my five senses to appreciate Korean food before, while and after eating. Somehow in a strange way, whenever I cook Korean food at home for my friends and family, whenever I'm eating at a Korean restaurant (and the best thing is, thanks to Korean food, I can read Korean now!) I feel like I'm at home, so Korean food it's a comfort food for me and It has definitely changed my life. I've got to say...that's pretty amazing. I would like to say a very big thank you to Maangchi as well because Maangchi is the one that inspires me in everything. I always look up to Maangchi. In my opinion, Korean food has a big potential to become the next big thing and I'm very impressed with the innovative Taste of Korea team and the hardworking Korea Tourism Organization in the way how they promote Korean food to the world. I can say that Korean food is a role model for other countries that are also working hard to promote their cuisines. By the way, at the same time, I like cooking Malaysian food and very interested to promote my very own cuisine. Malaysian food is also very underrated and if you are not familiar with Malaysian food, do check it out or ask me anything about it if you are curious about Malaysian food. My last words? All the best to Korea and Maangchi! Thank You.

Dear Rini Sorry of my late reply, I used the same recipe as Maangchi only that I replaced mochi/sweet rice flour with glutinous rice flour (tepung pulut) and I avoided the seafood.
