Description

In the CIS, it is common to pickle vegetables and everyone loves pickled cucumbers and tomatoes, but this practice is not unique to us. In Korea, they began pickling vegetables for the winter as early as the 8th century - most often this was done with cabbage and radish. Gradually, the recipe for the Korean dish was modernized, new spices appeared in it, until in the 18th century the Japanese brought their hot pepper to Korea. It was then that classic kimchi appeared.
