Sorry I couldn't be more helpful as I can only venture a guess at this point. </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/problem-tough-radish-stems-in-kimchi#post-6019 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 00:30:25 +0000 kimchiji-gay 6019@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>I have made yeolmu kimchi and chonggak kimchi with both store bought and homegrown radishes. Many of the leaves are too tough to chew even after I trim of many outer leaves. At first I think the taste is good, but then I cannot really eat it. Has this happened to you? What can you suggest to me? </p>
