Wintertime is a good season to have juicy radish. I went to Super G mart in Greensboro and got a good radish. The process to make kimchi can be various depending on the family's secret recipes and special ingredients. I make it as much as simple but tasty!
<Ingredients>
Veggie ingredients
Radish
One onion
One bunch of green onions
One carrot
Sauce ingredients
Three Tablespoons of Flour
Two Cups of Water
One cup of red pepper powder
One cup of red pepper flakes
Half cup of Paprika powder (optional)
1/4 cup of salt
One small apple (minced; can be substituted for sugar)
Ten cloves of garlic - minced
One cup of fish sauce
1. Cut radish into small cubes.
2. Put cut radish in the large bowl and sprinkle one tablespoon of sugar and three tablespoons of coarse salt.
3. Toss radish so that sugar and salt can be well mixed.
4. Set aside for 30 minutes. (toss regularly if you have time)
5. In a small saucepan, add two cups of water and three tablespoons of flour then stir.
6. In medium heat, cook flour-water until it becomes thicker or stickier. (Do not need to let it boil)
7. Once flour-water gets dense, turn off the heat and let it cool.
8. Once the flour-water saucepan gets cool, add all pepper powder, pepper flakes, and paprika powder. Now you can see clear red thick sauce.
9. Add fish sauce, minced garlic, salt, minced apple to the flour-water saucepan. Then it smells like kimchi already!
10. Drain water from the radish then mix with the prepared sauce.
11. Put it in the container and leave it at room temperature for half day then move to the refrigerator. Depending on the radish cube size, they will be ready by the next day or next week.
