Favored by many, this juicy kimchi is for all seasons. The thinly sliced

vegetables such as Korean watercress and green onions. Furthermore, the
fresh red pepper strips and the finely powdered red peppers exaggerate the
flavor and create an appetizingly reddish color for the kimchi. It goes
nicely with your favorite snacks.

skin with a soft sponge. Separate the tender inner leaves of the celery
cabbage. Trim off the leaves of the Korean water-cress and green onions;

pieces; cut the radish into thin 1 1/4" (3 cm) squares.

table salt and 4 to 5 quarts of water. If the red pepper powder contains
big pieces, wrap the powder in 3 layers of cheesecloth and shake in the
brine to prevent any big pieces from getting into the kimchi souse and
clouding it.

6. Pour the kimchi souse over the vegetable mixture in the crock.

substituted for the red pepper powder.

color combination.
