[Homemade] Vegetarian Kimchi - Lemmy.world

It took me a while to gather all the ingredients but it turned out soo good. The container was empty in a week. Please don’t mind the slightly wonky picture.

Looks delicious!

Is kimchi not usually vegetarian?

Kimchi is typically made with fermented shrimp paste
No it’s mostly uses a base that has either fish sauce/oyster sauce/shrimp paste/anchovies etc. I’m not Korean but I have made Kimchi a lot of times and I’ve noticed that every family/bloggers have a different version of Kimchi. So it’s a very versatile dish and takes a couple of tries to get it right based on your preferences.
That was my first thought too, TIL!
No. It usually haa fish sauce, fermented shrimp, and maybe also oysters.
