I am guessing there was too much salt in the cabbage though because nothing happened except it went bad. lol another lesson learned on the path of life!</p> <p>Deb </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/what-did-i-buykimchi-mix#post-739 Thu, 19 Mar 2009 11:35:34 +0000 Sylvia 739@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>LOL, I also buy things and then try to figure out what they are. I can't read Korean so my only clue is the FDA required ingredient list. Sometimes I get a hint from the little pictures like the ones on the back of ramen noodle packages.<br /> I was so happy when I discovered Maangchi I'm not guessing as much now. Not only does she give us great recipes but she shows us what the product looks like in its original packaging. I use her book at the import store to help me figure out what I'm buying. </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/what-did-i-buykimchi-mix#post-736 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 23:14:12 +0000 hopish 736@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>It's called bossam Kimchi I think. It's one of the ways Korean people eat their meals. They take the cabbage, put a little rice and some of the spicy radish stuff, along with some fresh oysters. Wrap it up and enjoy ^^ </p> http://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/what-did-i-buykimchi-mix#post-728 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 17:00:05 +0000 whocooks4you 728@http://www.maangchi.com/talk/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I have been watching your videos for awhile now, thank you for such great instruction!<br /> Yesterday I bought an interesting looking item in the fresh side dish area at my H-mart...it was cabbage leaves that are salted, and a packet of radish/green onion/hot pepper/oysters that looks like a do it yourself kit for kimchi. Is that what you would say it is for? or is there another dish that is made like that?</p> <p>This is labeled as made by Pinocchio company, and is just called "Fresh Oyster Vegetable", the ingredients listed are Fresh oyster mix, vegetable, red pepper powder, garlic, cabbage". </p> <p>There is probably as much radish-pepper mix as there is cabbage, and 2 nice sized oysters. It looks delicious and smells great!</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Deb </p>
