If I don’t have fermented salted shrimp, can I use salted shrimp sauce to make the traditional kimchi recipe?
First I want to say that I think you are fabulous! Thank you so much for all that you share with us! I have made many of your recipes. They are so easy to follow because you really take the time to TEACH us how to cook Korean. I really want to make this kimchi the way that you do but I cannot find the salted brined shrimp. They didn’t even have it at my Asian food market. What is the best thing to substitute for this ingredient?
Dear maangchiI want to ask you about kimchi,when fermented is this meaning some ingredient turn to alcohol, because I am muslium and I can eat alcoholic food, and I really like you cooking video.
thank you
Don’t worry; that’s not alcoholic fermentation.
If there’s yeast, something went terribly wrong. ;-D
thank you sanne
You’re welcome.
Dear Maangchi,
Thank you so much for this recipe. I have been buying supermarket kimchi because I always thought making kimchi was difficult. But I finally tried it today (just one cabbage for a start) and I couldn’t believe how easy it was! Will be making more!!

Yay, your first kimchi making turned out successful!
“I couldn’t believe how easy it was!” I agree with you!
My first bite of kimchi was from the one I made thanks to Maangchi’s recipe and since then you can always find home-made kimchi in my fridge. For the first time I bought kimchi in a Korean grocery store (I ran out of home-made kimchi only 2 weeks ago so I decided to try this store bought jar , waiting for the kimjang time and the large batch of kimchi resulting).
Well, I’m proud to say that the home-made kimchi I’ve learned to make here is definitly better than the store bought kimchi, so much more flavorful, savory, it tastes rich …
Thank you Maangchi!
That’s right! Homemade kimchi is the best! I’m so happy to hear that you always keep your homemade kimchi in the fridge just like me! : )
HI.
What about white kimchi. I have a langauge partner that says in Korea there is white kimchi without pepper flakes. He likes it better. Is the recipe the same, just minus the flakes?
Maangchi has a recipe for white kimchi here: https://www.maangchi.com/recipe/baekkimchi
Thank you, Jenny for your kind reply on behalf of me!
Soo tasty.

You made kimchi stew with your homemade kimchi! So cool!

Awesome! The cabbage looks well salted!
Yes, you look happy! How many pounds of cabbage is being salt now in the photo? :)
Probably around 5lbs.. if I had to guess. I just bought what felt right. ❤️❤️
I don’t have a fermented salted shrimp. Is Salt enough in exchange?
This recipe is perfect. The only issue I have is that I always tend to run out of the seasoned paste before I’ve finished with the cabbage. I guess I put too much between all the leaves.
I tried many different recipes for years but this is by far the yummiest and best Kimchi I’ve ever made! I made a batch and shared it with friends. They ALL said that it is the best Kimchi – better than their moms! So so so happy that I found this and will keep making Kimchi this way! Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe and sharing it with us! Greetings from Germany!
This recipe is great! I will never buy supermarket kimchi anymore :)
