KIMCHEE SALAD

This is great for potlucks or barbecues - so much more flavorful than regular coleslaw. The original recipe is from Bobby Flay but I changed it a bit. Note: the farther in advance you make this, the better it gets!

KIMCHI POTATO SALAD



Kimchi Potato Salad image

Being half Korean, I am always looking for ways to fuse my love of kimchi into pretty much anything that I make. After making this potato salad, I HAD to write this one down. It was fabulous. This recipe is a smaller batch recipe since I assumed most of my friends coming over do not have the same taste for kimchi as I do. This is such an easy recipe to manipulate according to taste and spice level. I used a potato medley from Costco that had small purple potatoes, yukons, and red potatoes.

Time 20m

Yield 2 1/2-3 cups, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 lbs baby gourmet potato blend
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, divided
1/4-1/2 cup cabbage kimchi
1 whole green onion, sliced thinly
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1 raw carrot, shredded
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon korean red pepper paste (gochujang)

Steps:

  • Put potatoes in a pot of cold water and a handful of salt. Boil roughly 15-18 minutes. (Do not over boil or it will fall apart)
  • Rinse with cold water so that you can cut the potatoes in half without burning your fingers. Cut potatoes in half and then pour 1 1/2 Tbsp of apple cider vinegar. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, sugar, salt, gochujang, and remaining 1/2 Tbsp of apple cider vinegar.
  • In a large bowl, add the shredded carrot (you can use the large cheese grater setting), sliced green onion, and chopped cilantro.
  • Add the mayo dressing and the potatoes to the large bowl and mix gently. Refrigerate, then enjoy.

KIMCHI TUNA SALAD

Kimchi and canned tuna make a popular combination in Korean cooking. These two pantry staples are found together in a number of dishes like kimchi jjigae and kimbap, and here they are the basis of a lively, fortifying salad. Combine them with fresh ginger and celery for crunch (or an equal amount of other crunchy vegetables, like thinly sliced sugar snap or snow peas, radishes, carrot, cabbage or fennel). The dressing is made using the spicy liquid from the kimchi jar, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil, but because each jar of kimchi is different, you may want to tweak the seasonings to taste. Eat the salad on its own; with gim, or seaweed, as a hand roll; or with something starchy to balance the punch, like a burger bun, rice, boiled potatoes, soba or ramen noodles.

Time 10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16-ounce) jar cabbage kimchi, including juice
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice wine vinegar, plus more to taste (or lemon or lime juice or 1 tablespoon fish sauce)
3 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, plus more to taste
10 to 12 ounces canned tuna (preferably oil-packed), drained
6 celery stalks, thinly sliced crosswise (about 2 cups)
1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced into less than 1/4-inch-thick matchsticks
Mayonnaise (optional)
Red-pepper flakes, gochugaru or sambal oelek (optional)
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds or furikake (optional)

Steps:

  • Place a colander in a medium bowl and drain the kimchi. Coarsely chop the kimchi; you should have about 2 cups.
  • To the medium bowl with the kimchi juice, add the rice wine vinegar and sesame oil; stir to combine. Stir in the tuna and celery, breaking up the tuna into large chunks.
  • Add the chopped kimchi and ginger, and stir to combine. Because each batch of kimchi tastes different, it's important to taste and adjust seasonings. If it needs more tang, add more rice wine vinegar. If it's too intense, add more oil or even mayonnaise. If you want it spicier, add red-pepper flakes, gochugaru or sambal.
  • Serve with a sprinkle of sesame seeds, if desired. The salad keeps in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Napa cabbage is the traditional choice for kimchi, but you can also use other types of cabbage, such as green cabbage or bok choy.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to slice the cabbage and other vegetables.
  • Use gloves: When handling chili peppers, wear gloves to protect your hands from the capsaicin, which can cause irritation.
  • Taste test your kimchi: As the kimchi ferments, taste it regularly to adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Store kimchi in a cool, dark place: Kimchi can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:

Kimchi is a delicious and healthy Korean dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or condiment. It is a good source of probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. Kimchi is also a versatile dish that can be used in a variety of recipes, such as soups, stews, and salads. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to add flavor to your meals, kimchi is a great option.
