It is almost sour in about a week. The longer the soaking time, the more sour. If you don't eat it temporarily, take it out. If you like to eat crispy ones that are not too sour, you can also take them out in advance, depending on your personal preference. Old kimchi water is more fragrant. Don't soak the vegetables too much at a time, add new ones after you eat them, so that the kimchi water will get better and better! Add some salt every time after adding new dishes!

Tips:
Remember:
1. The dish for washing vegetables, the chopsticks for holding vegetables, and all tools must not stick to oil. They must be disinfected with hot water every time they are used! Otherwise, a jar of vegetables may be destroyed. If white mildew grows on the kimchi water, that is, "green flowers", you should use a clean utensil to remove the mildew, add appropriate amount of salt and white wine, open the lid for 10 minutes a day, and it can be improved after 2-3 days. If the kimchi is rotten, soft and smelly, it has gone bad and must be discarded.
2. The peppers and vegetables used to make kimchi must be air-dried and put in the kimchi jar.
3. The soaked kimchi can be eaten as it is, or it can be served as a cold dressing with sauces such as spicy pepper. It is an absolute side dish.
4. Add vegetables according to your personal preference, you can also put green bamboo shoots, cowpea, celery, etc.
