Korean Daikon & Carrot Kimchi

Kimchi is usually made with wombok but I do like this variation as well. It’s a delicious side dish, and despite the amount of red pepper, it’s really good for digestion. Fermented for a few days and the sticks come out crunchy, delicious and fun to eat.

A staple of Korean cuisine, and the first recipe in our Korean recipe series, kimchi is spicy, delicious and full of gut healthy probiotics. It can be hard to find vegan kimchi, so here is a delicious, simple recipe you can use to have as much of it as you like, homemade!
