What vegetables go into kimchi? Taste your kimchi. If it tastes saltier than you would hope for, don’t worry! Freshly made kimchi usually taste much saltier, but the saltiness e will subdue as it ferments. I will tell you what. Make kimchi filling without the shrimp sauce in the recipe. Take a small portion off from the filling and add in a little bit of the shrimp sauce to it. Taste both filling to see if you can tell the difference.

Works better.")In late fall, Korean households make this type of kimchi in large quantity for their kimjang (or gimajang, 김장), an annual kimchi making event in preparation for cold months.

So dear Holly, even if this post is already a few years old, I’m hoping you want to help me and my sad, salty cabbage! Do you think there is a way to save it (the saltiness is extreme though, I cannot taste cabbage, only salt)? Or can you tell me what I might have done wrong? I still have a great kimchee filling waiting in the fridge, so I’ll definitely try again using new cabbages and, of course, a different baptizing technique. I wanted to let you know how it went. Well… The kimchi turned out amazing! In fact, me and my boyfriend have emptied the pot already and we’ll have to make a new batch next week. I cooked several meals with it, but most of it was eaten straight out of the pot. It was truly amazing!

Can’t find Korean sea salt? — use any flaky sea salt or kosher salt, but only use 1/3 the recipe amount. Do not use table salt.
