Green Makeover
Before:
After:
And in between, we watched this YouTube video of "Maangchi" making yeolmu (young summer radish) kimchi:
I wish I could say that these greens were grown in our garden, but we live in a townhouse so yeah, no. Our pastor and his wife (yes, the crazy one--she may be crazy, but she's also insanely generous and kind) let us pick these from their community garden on Sunday afternoon. I have never made this kind of kimchi before so I worried about wasting these beautiful greens, but through a little team effort my guy and I pulled it off. He washed them all (a long and tedious process), we watched the video, and the rest is history or...kimchi as the case may be. I love this stuff! I can't wait until it's fermented. Mmm... I definitely see a garden in our future.

Looks great!! When Mom K was here she made us four different kinds of kimchee. We're loving it.
Looks delicious! I need to start making Korean food again. You are my inspiration. :)
oh, I never thought to look on youtube for korean food videos!
youtube is the greatest! :P
Wow. What a great video! Thanks :)
I'm so impressed ... I have never attempted to make kimchi of any kind even though I've watched (and smelled) my mom make it many times. My fave is the crunchy radish kind, actually I'd really like to eat some now! Especially the cut up radish in vinegar-y brine, without the chili powder ...mm,
I'm so impressed at how much Korean food you are able to cook. Since we are in Korea I usually cook western food at home and we go out for Korean. When we were in Canada he did all the Korean cooking. In fact, he had a friend send him 2 cook books!
wait, are the greens the tops of the radish....I was wondering if I could do anything with them...
