Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds crunchy vegetables (such as radishes, asparagus, carrots, cucumbers, beets, or turnips), cut into 3/4" pieces
3 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon sugar
10 scallions, cut on a diagonal into 1" pieces
1/3 cup gochugaru (coarse Korean red pepper powder) or 4 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes, finely ground
3 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon finely chopped peeled ginger

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss together vegetables, salt, and sugar. Let sit at room temperature 1-3 hours for juices to release. Add scallions, gochugaru, garlic, fish sauce, and ginger; toss to coat.
  • Divide kimchi between two 1-qt. jars, distributing liquid evenly and leaving 1" headspace.
  • Eat immediately or let sit on countertop 2 days to allow fermentation to begin before refrigerating. Flavors will deepen over time.

My attempt making vegetable kimchi wasn't very successful. The kimchi turned out too sour for my taste.
