There are various types of kimchi and also many dishes made using kimchi! Try eating dishes made using kimchi at a nearby restaurant or try making it yourself!
The first dish to be introduced is Kimchi Stew. Oil a pot with sesame oil and on a high heat, fry pork and kimchi. Add water, various vegetables to the fried pork and kimchi and bring it to a boil. After bringing it to a boil, season it to taste with red chili powder, salt and pepper etc.! Koreans use sour kimchi that has fermented for a while in kimchi stews very often. This is because putting sour kimchi into kimchi stew makes it much more delicious!
