Cooking tips

  • The best way to enjoy this kimchi is to prepare the dressing in advance and mix only the amount of cabbage you’ll eat just before serving.
  • Keep the apple skin on when slicing—it preserves the crisp texture and colorful appearance of the kimchi.
  • Avoid pressing or rubbing the cabbage too hard, as this can release a bitter flavor; handle it gently with your fingertips.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make fresh kimchi in just 10 minutes without the complicated salting process.
  • People needing a refreshing side dish to balance rich holiday meals.
