Korean KimChi
This recipe is from Nourishing Traditions. The best whey to use is what we get from Full Quiver. If you don’t have whey then extra salt will work.
1 head Napa cabbage, cored and shredded
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 cup carrots, shredded
1/2 cup daikon radish, grated (optional)
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
3 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced
1/2 teaspoon dried chile flakes
1 tablespoon sea salt
4 tablespoons whey (or, if not available, use an additional 1 tablespoon salt)
Directions
Place vegetables, ginger, garlic, chile flakes, sea salt, and whey in a bowl and pound with a wooden pounder or a meat hammer to release juices. Place in a quart-sized, wide-mouth mason jar and press down firmly with a pounder or meat hammer until juices come to the top of the cabbage. The top of the vegetables should be at least 1 inch below the top of the jar. Cover tightly and keep at room temperature for about 3 days before transfering to cold storage.
Excellent! I am glad someone finally give some credit to our traditonal healthy food and one of the secrets of our beauty and creativeness! ^-^

I am going to introduce this article under my anti-inflammatory diet page or under Asian diet page of my blog. Although no one has pin point out that Kimchi is anti-inflammatory diet but that’s because people, here in U.S. don’t know much about it. I am going to copy its title and put it on those pages I mentioned earlier on my blog. Then more people can read and get benefit from your article and more people can get into your blog, directly as well.
Thank you! ^-^

Sorry, It seems like it’s not on permalink. I can’t do copy only the title. I am not familiar with this e-world tech. well, too bad. (I am so so so new on this blog world. My blog is only like two weeks old.) But I was going to write about Kimchi anyway one day and I will. So check it out then on my blog. I thought your post could be nice for my reader as well….
Thanks!
