Kimchi, Korea’s national food, is one of our favorite fermented foods. It contains its own type of lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus kimchii, as well as other probiotic bacteria that may benefit digestive health. Kimchi made from cabbage is high in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin K, riboflavin (vitamin B2) and iron!
Famed chef David Chang of Momofuku describes it best:
"Microbes produce enzymes, enzymes develop amino acids, glutamic acid + aspartic acid = umami, umami = delicious."
How is Craft & Culture's Kimchi different?
Our kimchi is made in very small batches by hand, by the same folks who brew your favorite Kombuchas and Kefirs!
It will be slightly spicy, crunchy and have a distinct sweetness from the raw and active bacteria present in it's fermentation!
On rare occasions, some batches will have a clean, mineral-y taste with a hint of glucosinolate bitters and is super good for you! Read more HERE
Do note that "fresh" kimchi with external vinegar added is not considered fermented and lacks beneficial probiotic bacteria.
