Editors Review
The word Kimchi is mostly associated with pickled cabbage but the Koreans use all kinds of vegetables for pickling. If you love cabbage kimchi, you will love this more. The crisp cool crunchiness of cucumber and the fiery heat of red chili peppers provides a unique taste sensation. The refreshing flavours and crunchy texture of cucumber are particularly appealing in summer so have a jar of these in your refrigerator for the hot months.Comments
