[🇰🇷K-CULTURE TIME 🇰🇷]
Did you know that there's more than one type of 'kimchi'? In Korean cuisine, there are many types of kimchi that can be enjoyed with almost every meal. Here are five types of kimchi that you may have tried before or may be interested in trying! 😊
1. Baechu Kimchi (top left), the most common type of kimchi. You can find this type at every Korean restaurant. Made from napa cabbage, this kimchi is super yummy!
2. Pa-Kimchi (top right), a delicious kimchi made from green onions. This is my personal favorite type of kimchi! It's nice and crunchy, and really easy to make!
3. Chonggak Kimchi (middle), soft greens and crunchy radish, this kimchi made from a radish called chonggakmu! The name literally translates to ponytail kimchi. How cute!
4. Oi Kimchi (bottom left), a kimchi made from cucumbers. You may have seen this one circulating TikTok! It's really crunchy and yummy, and goes well KBBQ!
5. Baek Kimchi (bottom right), cabbage kimchi without the red pepper flakes. This type of kimchi is definitely best for those who can't handle spicy - like the elderly or children, or even those who just can't handle spicy food! It's yummy and refreshing!
Kimchi is a staple in Korean cuisine that we've all grown to love. What's your favorite Kimchi? Would you ever want a kimchi recipe? Let us know!
