006: Say kimchi ~

Haha, this is usually said when my korean friends are taking photos.
Everyone is looking at the camera and say `Kimchi`
Well,  Japanese usually say `ha-i, chi-zu!` (means cheese ) to give a good smile when they are taking photos. This is not the point of this post. Just wanna share some photos of mine that previously taken when I was making kimchi with my friends.
Very first step , cutting and slicing all the ingredients.
We were making two types of kimchi, one is using chinese cabbage , another one is white raddish.
The other ingredients including minced ginger, garlis, sliced onion, scallion, chili flake,
salt and korean fish sauce.
I think making kimchi is one of the good way to bring people together, especially family members.
Coz it needs a lot of work like washing, cutting the ingredients and mixing them.
Time to stuffed and spread the chili paste on the cabbage.
All mixed well.
 
Tadaang ~
Yay, done! all the kimchi were packed into boxes and stored in at room temperature for the first day to allow fermentation. The next day, it was put in to the fridge and ready to serve. 
My korean friend also made us the traditional drink, called Su jeong gwa. It is made by simmering the cinnamon stick, ginger and red jujube. Then, add in sugar and dried persimmon.
Masiseoyo!
